Roger Moore should have retired as Bond after For Your Eyes Only. He was too old in his last two outings
As a Bond fan for more, I must admit I love all Bond films. But OCTOPUSSY is the best of all them all; it's also my favorite movie. Roger Moore is in top form, John Glen's direction is excellent, the plot is complex and rich, and John Barry's music is wonderful. Moreover, Louis Jourdan is a beautiful baddie, Maud Adams is one of the most interesting leading ladies, and Steven Berkoff is amazingly frightening. The cinematography is very impressive, as is the production design by Peter Lamont.
What more can I say? OCTOPUSSY is skillfully made and astonishingly thrilling from its breathtaking precredits sequence to the very end. Nobody does it better!!
Probably my personal favorite of the Roger Moore era. Lots of silly fun with Bond dressed like a clown, Q flying a hot air balloon, Octopussy and her clan of circus girls. Throw some mad Russians into the mix and you have a completely enjoyable Bond movie with lots of great moments, especially the climax.
A totally absurd, zany and ridiculous roller-coaster ride. Cheesy? Yes. Campy? Definitely. Dated? Horribly. Still, the film manages to not take itself too seriously and the action (including a dynamite opening with a mini jet plane) is highly enjoyable. The film is both good and bad at the same time.
Octopussy was quite an exciting James Bond film, the ending was very well done and most of the scenes were exciting to watch.
At the moment Roger Moore is my least favorite Bond. No particular reason ... just don't care for him..
one of roger moores later efforts as bond. it's no live and let die but it has its moments. with plently of action at start and finish but a dull middle it's another average 007 flick. no really memorable baddies
Saw this at the movies. It was sort of okay. Stereotype Roger Moore as Bond delivers all that he has to.
Pour un énième opus de la série James Bond, on aurait tort de considérer Octopussy comme l'un des plus mauvais, comme plusieurs le placent à égalité avec Moonraker. D'entrée de jeu, Maud Adams est tout simplement superbe dans la peau d'Octopussy et elle donne le ton à un scénario incroyablement relevé qui allie ingénuité et, par moment, originalité. Même si certains éléments sont un peu tirés par les cheveux, il est intéressant de voir, pour la première fois, une certaine dualité entre les ennemis eux-même. Louis Jourdan est d'ailleurs également surprenant dans le rôle de Kamal Khan.
out of all the bonds i have to say, moore and brosnan are the best actors as they carry the role of better. although this is a very good film it is not the best roger moore, james bond film.
#16 -- Octopussy is a very thrilling Bond movie that acts as more of an adventure film than a spy thriller. Roger Moore looks older, but still seems fit for the role -- even while wearing a ridiculous clown suit. Aside from a few moments, like the one where Bond swings through the jungle like Tarzan, and the stupid "gymnastic gunfight" near the end of the movie, I have very few problems with Octopussy. However, I ultimately find that it doesn't live up to The Spy Who Loved Me or Live And Let Die.
Bond's just too old, and you can't take the ending seriously when he's dressed as a clown for most of it. Takes too long to get going as well, But still not the worst.
masterful over the top excitement!!!
Moore delivers one of his best potrayels of Fleming's super spy...
Roger Moore's age begins to show in this Bond outing that takes 007 to India and one of Q's greatest lines:
Vijay: Is he still there?
Q: You must be joking! Double-0 seven on an island populated exclusively by women? We won't see him till dawn!
Yes, he dresses up in a clown costume.

After the success of For Your Eyes Only, Albert R. Brocolli was sure going to have a tough time repeating the success. Although Octopussy, i feel is not as good as the previous film, it still made a very good attempt at it. First we must start with the locations. India is a magnificent backdrop for the majority of the film. The elegant building and action sequence really made it feel different. The cast were again top-notch, with Roger Moore giving the viewer another wonderful performance as Bond, and Maud Adams returns to give a nice performance as Octopussy. Her performance actually makes you forget that she appears in another Moore Bond film. All the villains are outstanding too and Robert Brown bring an interesting new dimension to M.
The story is very easy to follow and the action will keep you hooked, with a amazing tense scene when he stops the murder of thousands of people. The music is actually very good and has that Indian feel to it. If you want to see a good Bond film, this one isn't bad.
This movie kind of took a step back and is sandwiched somewhat in between the Bonds. Not the greatest but not the worst either. There were some fun moments in the film including hearing the James Bond theme at one point. Nice to see John Barry come back to score a few more James Bonds until he left after The Living Daylights. I guess after seeing Octopussy my new ratings are such..
For Your Eyes Only, Moonraker then The Spy Who Loved Me..Diamonds are Forever, , Live and Let Die, Thunderball, You Only Live Twice, The Man With The Golden Gun, Octopussy, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Goldfinger, Dr. No and From Russia With Love
Roger Moore. Not the greatest Bond, in fact he's probably the worst. But this isn't his worst movie!
What is the obsession with the word 'Pussy' in Bond films? Pussy Galore from Goldfinger, now Octopussy. Not brilliant, can't even remember much of it, that's how memorable it is.
Classic Bond, with all the gorgeous girls and cheesy lines you want. I'm glad the new Craig films are going darker though.
well I have watched A man with a golden gun that James Bond film saw I can't wait to see this James Bond film.
micah loves james bond movies so i've seen lots from spike tv and don't even know the names of the movies
Not the best of the Bond films but still had several good scenes such as Bond trying to be serious whilst dressed as a clown. I just watched this film and I have already forgotten the villain's name (thats how forgettable he is). Moore is definitely not in the same league as Connery and Brosnan when it comes to good solid action.
This one seems to get a bit of a bum deal when it comes to rating the Bond saga, but for all its faults it is quite a fun little film. The plot if engaging enough, and Maud Adams is great as the title character. Sadly there are too many instances of racial stereotyping, and one line of dialogue that is just plain offensive, even for 1983. The baddie is completely forgettable, but to be honest after the shambles that was 'For Your Eyes Only' things could only get better, and whilst not a massive improvement 'Octopussy' is good entertainment.
