Member Rating:  
In this adaptation of Ian Fleming's 1955 novel, James Bond (Roger Moore) must thwart Sir Hugo Drax (Michel Lonsdale), who plans to wipe out all of humankind and replace it with a super race that he has cultivated in a massive space station. The girl in the case is American secret agent Holly Goodhead, intelligently played by Lois Chiles. "Jaws," the steel-mouthed henchman played by Richard Kiel in The Spy Who Loved Me (1977), makes a return appearance in Moonraker, turning good guy (complete with a girlfriend of his own) in the process. Bernard Lee makes his last appearance as "M" in this most costly of James Bond's 1970s escapades. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    Roger Moore successfully leads another classic Bond flick. This one could also be titled Bond in Space. Absolutely a must see for any Bond fan, plus new bond fans can see that the Austin Powers series gets plenty of its ideas from this one.

    For me this was a fun escapist movie. When the space shuttle was high tech and the Marines had a more pure reputation, a movie combining both is fun. Maybe one reason I enjoyed it is there is not an ounce of pretension. It just goes for a rip roaring fun comic book adventure type of movie.

    After the sucess of "Star Wars" and "The Spy Who Loved Me", the Bond films try to meld the two together, with mixed results. Some good special effects (Although not "Star Wars" quality) but overall a dissiapointment.
