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 film's Bond 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 what was up til this point, the 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.
