Review of The Living Daylights (1987) by Josh L — 19 Feb 2013

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING: DUE TO WHAT HOLLYWOOD MAKES JAMES BOND OUT TO BE MOST INFAMOUS FOR, MY FAMILY HAS NEVER ACTUALLY SEEN A 007 FILM UP UNTIL THIS POINT (and we haven't made it a habit of pursuing any others), SO PLEASE TAKE THE FOLLOWING REVIEW WITH A GRAIN OF SALT, AS WE DID IN PREVIEWING THIS FILM:

For years, I had heard a rumor circulating around concerning a James Bond film that didn't contain as much sexual content as the previous/later entries in the franchise. Upon doing some careful research, I discovered "The Living Daylights" and decided to give it a try. Overall, it was a pretty entertaining flick, dispite a few innuendos/brief suggestive content, including the opening title sequence (all of which we were prompt to spin thru). Other than this, "T.L.D." contains some great stunts, gadgets, and Soviet cold war espionage, with a twist of Indiana Jones. Personally, my family and I, even after seeing this film, have never considered Ian Fleming's character to be a role model to look up to, but in this particular case, If ever there was a 007 film to check out, "The Living Daylights" would be the one. (JUST BE SURE TO HAVE THE FAST-FORWARD BUTTON NEARBY, when it comes to the brief suggestive parts as mentioned earlier).
