Comment/Synopsis

James Bond (Timothy Dalton) is on the way to Felix Lighter's wedding when they arrest a drugs baron (Robert Davi). However he escapes, attacks Felix Lighter and kills his bride. James Bond (007) then goes off on a personal vendetta to get revenge for his friend. This was the 16th Bond film and the second of two to star Timothy Dalton as James Bond. It is darker and more violent than his previous film The Living Daylights. It does though have some good action sequences and Robert Davi is good as the evil drug baron villan. There is support from Carey Lowell as the mercenary pilot who gets involved in helping Bond and Talisa Soto as the girl friend of the drugs baron who ends up also helping Bond.
