Product Description

Product Description

The second and final of Timothy Dalton's outings as James Bond sees 007 leave Her Majesty's Secret Sevice and branch out on his own. The trouble begins when drug baron Franz Sanchez (Robert Davi) makes an unexpected appearance at the wedding of Felix Leiter (David Hedison), Bond's good friend, leaving the groom maimed and the bride dead. Bond has no choice but to seek his revenge and, with a little help from the obligatory 'Bond girl' (Carey Lowell) and the ever-present Q (Desmond Llewellyn), sets out after the villainous Sanchez. Causing a storm on its release because of its violence and dark plot, the film was originally given an 18 certificate before studio cuts.

From Amazon.co.uk

Timothy Dalton's second and last James Bond assignment in Licence to Kill is darker and harder-edged than anything from the Roger Moore years, dropping the sometimes excruciating in-jokes that had begun to dominate the series in favour of gritty, semi-realistic action. When CIA colleague and close friend Felix Leiter (David Hedison) gets married immediately after arresting villainous drug baron Franz Sanchez (with a little help from Bond), the crime lord's retribution is swift and terrible. Bond goes on a personal vendetta against Sanchez after his licence to kill is revoked. There are plenty of spectacular stunt scenes, of course, but the meaty story of revenge is this film's distinguishing feature. Dalton's portrayal of the iconic hero as tough but flawed was a brave decision that the producers subsequently retreated from after Licence to Kill's relatively poor box-office showing.

On the DVD: Timothy Dalton's insistence that Bond was a man not a superhero, and "a tarnished man" at that encouraged the producers to redefine Bond with a tougher edge more in keeping with Fleming's original conception of the character. Licence to Kill is Bond's darkest assignment. The production team experienced their usual difficulties in bringing it to the screen, the "making-of" documentary reveals, including a haunted road in Mexico and a mysterious flaming hand that appeared out of the fire during the climactic tanker explosion. There are two commentaries here, both montage selections of interviews from cast and crew. The first features director John Glen and many of the actors; the second has producer Michael G Wilson and the production team. Gladys Knight pops up in the first music video, Patte La Belle in the second ("If You Asked Me To"). There are the usual trailers, gallery of stills and a feature on the Kenworth trucks specially adapted for the movie's stunt work. --Mark Walker --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

This box set is incredible value for money. I already owned all the Connery DVDs as well as OHMSS and most of the Brosnans. When I decided to complete my Bond DVD collection I realised that it would be cheaper to just buy this box set and give my duplicates away rather than buy the individual titles I was missing. For the price, you get all the 20 Bond titles (exactly the same as the individual titles that are available as separate DVDs - including the two-disc version of Die Another Day), you also get a nice collectors' tin emblazoned with the 007 logo. If you are a Bond fan, this is almost impossible to refuse.
Three things to note, however. Firstly, to those people (below) who complained that this box set does not include Never Say Never Again, you should be aware that this is not an official Bond film (i.e. it is not a EON/DANJAQ/MGM-UA release). Therefore, it is no surprise that it is not included in this set (neither is Casino Royale, for that matter). If you want to purchase NSNA or CR, they are both available at a very good price here on Amazon. In my opinion, this is not a good reason to give this box set less than the five stars it deserves. Secondly, there are rumours that the first nineteen titles are going to be reissued as two-disc special editions (like Die Another Day), with a second disc devoted to extras. I think the existing extras are already sufficient (especially the excellent Making Of documentaries usually narrated by Patrick McNee). So, if, like me, you can't wait for those to come out, don't hesistate to get this superb box set. The price is just too good to resist. Thirdly, Bond 21 is already in pre-production. So, this box set will eventually become incomplete. But you can always buy that film as a separate DVD when it is released.

Think for a minute here. What film franchises have notoriously made too many films? Friday the 13th? 10 of those, certainly outstayed its welcome in my opinion. Any advance on 10? How about 20? That is, to date, the sum total of the adventures of the world's most popular Englishman, James Bond. No other franchise in cinema history is going to come near to the sucess (continuing success as well) of Bond.
This collection covers the entire lot from the first effort Dr. No (made for only $1,000,000), right through to the ultra-modern Die Another Day although it doesn't include rival productions Never say Never Again, or the spoof, Casino Royale. It covers all five actors, the original Connery (the yardstick by whom all other Bonds are measured), the one-shot wonder Lazenby (in one of the best films of the franchise), the king of the blazer Moore (king of the witticism as well), the dark Dalton (closest to the brooding spy of the Fleming novels) and the super cool Brosnan (Ireland's contribution to the Bond franchise).
The Bond films have always been notoriously a bit hit and miss, but there has not been a single one made that doesn't have the viewer entertained and from the moment each one begins and we look down that gun barrel listening to the strains of Monty Norman's inimitable theme tune, we're hooked. Every film has its moments, even weaker efforts like View to a kill for example, which features a fight on top of the Golden Gate Bridge which is one of the most thrilling of any Bond film. Its also great fun to watch the evolution of the Bond franchise as he goes from fighting the criminal organisation SPECTRE (originally SMERSH in the Fleming novels), through to terrorists, drug dealer, and Korean ex-military.

I didn't see this one at the cinema and I don't think I ever saw it properly on the box, but I just picked up the 'Ultimate' DVD set along with most of the others after the recent Bond price slashing frenzy made it worth a try. And to my complete surprise I found it to be an absolutely brilliant movie! Licence to Kill is suddenly one of my favourite Bonds. I think it's the most down to earth and believable story of any Bond, and it's also superbly acted and filmed, with not too much emphasis on the dolly birds for a change although they are still present and correct.
Best of all, Q gets a bigger role in this film than in all of his others put together and he is hysterical; so you can't say this film has no sense of humour! I remember the production was slated at the time: maybe it didn't work then but it sure works now.
If anything the style is similar to the recent Casino Royale. Which makes me wish they'd made Goldendeye and T.N.D. with Timothy Dalton, skipped the next two rubbish Brosnan films and moved straight on to Daniel Craig. And while they're at it they could forget about Judy bleedin' Dench completely!

A truly rousing piece of cinema and a milestone in the James Bond saga to which the fantastic Timothy Dalton bows out in explosive fashion as 007 in this gritty story about revenge away from HMSS.

Robert Davi and Benicio Del Toro star as the main villains of the film, drug baron Franz Sanchez and his thug bodyguard Dario who are ready to flood the streets with Class-A drugs and take down anyone who stands in there way, including CIA Agent Felix Leighter.

It's this grizzly event that takes James Bond from new highs to dangerous lows as he turns renegade to track down the ones responsible with the help of spunky Bond girl Pam Bouvier (Carey Lowell).

The best of the two Dalton pictures, and a real dose of grown up action for the Bond series which never lets down and boats some of the most exciting and jaw dropping stuntwork and action sequences in a 007 film. Miss at your peril.
