Of Dalton's two 007 flicks, this one was the best. It's a badass revenge flick featuring James Bond. What's not to love about that? Robert Davi plays the villainous Sanchez so perfectly, making him one of the most fearsome of Bond's rogues gallery. I really wish Dalton had been able to make more films, as he was easily one of the best to ever step into 007's shoes.

Dalton's second, and last, outing as 007 proves to be even more awesome than the first movie. The film is even darker and features a more ruthless Bond as he avenges his friend after being left for dead. Dalton pulls off a rogue James Bond with ease, really making me wish there had been more films with him in the role.
Robert Davi was excellent as the villain Sanchez, becoming one of Bond's most fearsome and ruthless foes he's ever faced. An excellent Bond film that really makes you wish Dalton had been given the chance to star in more of them. |
