A View to a Kill [Blu-ray]

Director John Glen tries his damnedest -- a pre-credit snowmobile chase, a parachute jump off the Eiffel Tower, a life-or-death struggle with a blimp on top of the Golden Gate Bridge -- to inject some life into this fourteenth episode of the long-running James Bond series. A View To A Kill also marks the departure of Roger Moore (who puts in his last appearance as James Bond here) and series regular Lois Maxwell (who played Miss Moneypenny since the inception of the series in Dr. No). The story kicks into gear when arch-fiend, Max Zorin (Christopher Walken), a mad, power-crazed industrialist, attempts to corner the market on computer chips by doing it the old-fashioned way -- i.e. destroying Silicon Valley with a well-placed earthquake. Bond is sent out to stop him. In Europe, Bond is partnered with Sir Godfrey Tibbet (Patrick MacNee), but when he travels to the States, he is joined by hot and sexy geologist Stacey Sutton (Tanya Roberts). Sent in to slow down Bond and Company is Max Zorin's sadistic and murderous sidekick May Day (Grace Jones).
