You'll lose track of the why's; just know that Bond must duel with a highly trained assassin. (Christopher Lee at the height of his villian powers.)

Roger Moore proves that a person other than Sean Connery can play James Bond more than once. The Man with the Golden Gun (Christopher Lee) is the best assassin in the world commanding one million dollars a hit and he's set his sights on 007. The plot of Scaramanga's (Lee) admirat...( read more)

As Bond films go, maybe this isn't the best of the lot, but, hey, it deserves points for giving us ROGER MOORE in another good turn as James Bond. Moore had already perfected this kind of hero in his "The Saint" roles on TV, whereby he had some quick one-liners as he outwitted va...( read more)

This is a great James Bond movie. This film stars Roger Moore as Bond. In this film Bond must find a assassin named Scaramanga. Scaramanga wants to kill Bond since he feels he would be the only decent adversary for him. Bond also stands in his way of getting a piece of technology...( read more)

This is one of the best with Roger Moore. Funny, with beautiful women and beautiful photography.Moore puts a little humor in the scenes (his mark).

Really enjoyable Bond film and great to see Sheriff JW Pepper again. Many didn't like Moore bringing a sense of humour to the role but I loved it.

Guy Hamilton, who is no stranger to directing James Bond films, comes through with another good adventure in The Man with the Golden Gun.
After a successful introduction that sets up the villain, Scaramanga, and provides a taste of the conclusion, the story becomes clear

November 6, 2006As this is Moore's earlier Bond work is far more superior in terms of character. Like the character he is arrogant and chauvinistic donning the line "you'll get your turn" to Goodnight after having sex with Andrea. What is also unusual is how he beats Andrea whilst interrogating her a dominate edge the actor and character would later loose. And its obvious that the character focus is on the parallels of Bond and Scaramanger as the "Girls" are most likely the weakest characters in the series. Adams is strong and confident as a character explaining why she entrapped James to kill her harrowing lover but as soon as we become intrigued she is killed off. Goodnight on the other hand is useless, her performance as a liaison officer is somewhat wavering as it appears to intelligent for her character. However they are both extremely pretty and add to the movie's collective charm. Though it is one of the weaker Bond movies its still a fantastic specimen of the series.
