20 years on

And I still don't understand what the plot is meant to be.

Still, The Living Daylights aside, it remains considerably more worthwhile than any Bond film since. I know that's a backhanded compliment, but it's never been a film I've particularly warmed to.

I was hoping it was more of a kick in the nadgers

Predictable though. "Give the people what they want"

I'm sure I'll cope with their disappointment.

Some of them are adult enough to do that too.

Back to Octopussy, methinks.
