10/10
Best Bond, Best Story, Best Villain
4 August 2001
People often criticise Dalton for being far too serious as Bond, forgetting that he read every Flemming novel in order to make his character as true as possible. Personally, I think he is the best Bond by a long way and it's very sad that we only saw him make two movies as 007. However, the two he made are fantastic achievements.

License to Kill is unique in the way that every character is played by a fantastic actor. Robert Davi's performance as Sanchez is a career best for the chap and Dalton's hard, moody portrayal as Bond is simply amazing. The action scenes are beautifully choreographed and obviously are helped by Dalton doing many of his own stunts. Everything about this movie has a gritty realism to it and the addition of more violence and bad language works incredibly well.

Forget what the critics say, if you want the definitive Bond film then look no further than this masterpiece. An unprecedented 10 out of 10.
