It feels like something that was quickly made, and everybody is just going through the motions. Except Moore and Lee (and Ekland's bikini), who are giving all they can to keep the film watchable. And points to the villain's lair, and the cracking theme song.

AVtaK has all of the pros from above (except bikini), but it also feels expensive (scope photography) even if Moore's stunt doubles are a bit more obvious.
Whoa whoa there Mac spoiler alert...what ya mean Roger Moore had stunt doubles... it is obvious in a lot of places I agree.

Think for me The Man With The Golden Gun was on tv a lot more along with Live And Let Die and that's why appreciate it more. In a way i do like the soundtack to A View To kill, first meeting with Stacey, Zorin's blimp and golden gate bridge fight.
