Moonraker 1979

"Play it again, Sam."

That pigeon double-take might be the funniest thing ever done in a Bond film right? Alongside a indestructible Jaws and Roger Moore being at his peak Bondness, this is the most campy Bond and it works!

I'm kind of glad that they went with the sci-fi route. We got this incredible gem. It is a Bond film like no other. Entertaining, funny, fun action scenes and a decent villain in Hugo Drax (Michael Lonsdale). It is just so much fun and I feel like can't be compared to the other Bonds. Never seen a henchman be this tough as Jaws is.

Moonraker is just a gift that keeps on giving on every rewatch. It will never be my favorite Bond but I like the fact that one of them is a campy adventure. Lovely start of the weekend!
