Rushes a View to a Kill

For the record, this is the 14th James Bond film and the seventh to star Roger | Moore. The opening thrill sequence is once again a ski chase. The most exotic (or should one say grotesque?) of his several love interests (or should one say sex objects?) is the black pantheresque model, Grace Jones. The villain, joylessly played by Christopher Walken, this time schemes improbably to blast open the San Andreas Fault, wiping out Silicon Valley so that he can corner the microchip market. If the picture did not carry the credits of Writers Richard Maibaum and Michael G. Wilson and Director John Glen, one would suspect it was made by microchips making overdrafts on a depleted memory bank. It is exhausted and exhausting, an old joke retold once too often.
