The Man with the Golden Gun

The Man with the Golden Gun is a notorious assassin, Scaramanga, who has killed a scientist in order to steal his revolutionary solar energy invention. Scaramanga teams up with almost untouchable Hong Kong-businessman Hai Fat, but Bond is right on their tails.

This Bond-film felt a bit too long. Another minus is the title song, which is certainly the worst of them all.

Notice Maud Adams as Scaramanga's mistress. In "Octopussy" she returns, but in a different and bigger part. Bond does not treat her too nicely when he tries to make her tell, but surprisingly that is not the only instance of ungentlemanly behaviour on Bond's part. His bad and brutal mannerns are contrasted sharply with his elegant and civilized looks.
