I have always liked this movie. James Bond is a dying character though.

During the opening sequence Bond exacts revenge on Blofeld for the death of his wife (in the previous film). Within the span of a few minutes, he tracks him down and kills him.

Ha ha, that is a connection I didn’t think of, but you may be onto something. Now I’m envisioning an amalgam of Diamonds are Forever and Barbarella. That would be a slick movie.

Anybody notice how 'glam rock' this film is? You've got athletic female assassins camply named Thumper and Bambi, two ridiculously fey gay assassins (Mr Wint and Mr Kidd), and future 'Rocky Horror' narrator Charles Grey dressing in drag to evade Bond. Also there's the space connection with the moon buggy ("Ground Control To Major Bond.."). All of which would have been way more fun with a different actor as Bond. Connery was old and pudgy and looked a little like Clark Gable by the time he was recalled to duty. Even with all the fashionably louche early 1970s distractions, the screenplay and direction weren't up to the standard of the 1960s Bond movies, and this amusingly odd entry is one of the more middling ones.
