Another Bond film...yawn

YAWN... here we go with another James Bond

bore.

By COLIN L.

I don't think that I’m the
only one tired of watching
007 and his endless battle
against the forces of evil. In
fact, James Bond (Roger
Moore), super British not so
secret agent, looks a little
worse for wear himself. He’s
still a handsome old
Holiywood hunk, but a
wrinkled one.

Moore is pushing 60 and is
Starting to look like Ronal
Reagan when they push him
into closeups with all those
Bond beauties. His next
Bond film may star
Katharine Hepburn as the
arch villianess just to keep
the guy looking young.

The new 007 flick is called

A View To Kill, Like all the
other 13 Bond films, the title
is filled with double-cnten-
dres, along with most of his
lines.

if the camera doesn’t get
too close to Moore's taugh
lines, we are expected to
believe that he is the old
womanizer. and dashing
commie basher that he has
always been. He trecks into
the arctic wastelands of
Russia, finds his dead com-
rade and under the nose of
three or four fully-armed
helicopters and a dozen or so
red troopers, he snatches a
stolen micro-chip and
dispatches his cvil pursuers,
while skiing ou one leg.

His mission is to stop the
psychopathic Max Zorin
(Christopher Walken).

Zorin, the end result of a
mad German doctor's ex-
periment with steroids, was
working for the KGB but
decided to put his evil genius
to work for himself. **No-
body leaves the KGB,"’ the
icy blue-eyed Aryan is warn-
ed.

But with the help of his
forso-swinging Black _ girl-
friend May Day (Grace
Jones), Zorin plans to flood
the San Andreas Fault, caus-
ing Silicon Valley to vanish,
and leaving him in complete
domination of the micro-
chip market.

Bond has his own help in
the form of none other than
Sir Geoffrey Tibbett (Patrick
Macnec), (you may
remember Macnee as John
Steed from the Avengers).
Zorin quickly dispatches this
other old time British de-
fender of justice and turns

his attention to G07.

Zorin has Bond pegged
for who he really is after
running him through his
home computer and assigos
May Day to ‘‘go get him."
She does and after they get
out of bed, she tries to kill
him. Bond teams up with yet
another blond, a young
American girl called Stacey
(Tanya Roberts) and leads
Zorin through a maze of
metal-grinding, engine-roar-
ing car chases, a raging
underground mine flood and
plenty of senseless, gory kill-
ings.

California is of course
saved, the micro-chips are
safe, and Bond gets the girl.
Lots of action, lots of skin
and a view to kill, from the
Golden Gate Bridge, { mean.

A View to Kill is now
playing at the Park Royal
and the Vancouver Centre.
