Viewing Notes

Better than I remembed but a little disjointed. They spent way too long on the horse doping part of the story and not enough really tying together the fact that Walken’s character was a rogue East German Soviet agent, which had a lot more interesting possibilities. Tanya Roberts’ character is pretty weak as well. It was fun to see Walken, who makes a great bad guy, and Grace Jones. And of course, one of my favorite Bond theme songs.
