Review of The Man with the Golden Gun (1974) by Dann M — 12 Sep 2012
Bond is off to the Far East for high adventure in The Man With the Golden Gun. James Bond is marked for death by the world's deadliest assassin, Francisco Scaramanga, when he's sent a golden bullet with his number on it, forcing him to hunt down Scaramanga before Scaramanga kills him.
One of the most beloved Bond henchmen, Nick Nack, makes his appearance and brings a lot of fun to the film. And, Christopher Lee delivers a strong performance as Scaramanga. But the story is all over the place, and the supporting characters are more distracting than supporting.
Yet as messy as The Man With the Golden Gun is, it's still a campy adventure that's exciting and fun.
