Roger Moore was introduced as James Bond in this 1973 action movie featuring secret agent 007. More self-consciously suave and formal than predecessor Sean Connery, he immediately reestablished Bond as an uncomplicated and wooden fellow for the feel-good '70s. This film also marks a deviation from the more character-driven stories of the Connery years, a deliberate shift to plastic action (multiple chases, bravura stunts) that made the franchise more of a comic book or machine. If that's not depressing enough, there's even a good British director on board, Guy Hamilton (Force 10 from Navarone). The story finds Bond taking on an international drug dealer (Yaphet Kotto), and while that may be superficially relevant, it isn't exactly the same as fighting supervillains on the order of Goldfinger. --Tom Keogh

Roger Moore's maiden voyage as James Bond -- and the third different actor in the role in three consequetive films -- is actually a fairly entertaining movie with the usual set pieces, babes, and Moore's laid back performance. Tom Mankowicz (who wrote for both Connery and Moore) had the best observation. In the scene where Moore enters the Fillet of Soul in Harlem, if you have Connery you know there is going to be a fight. Jane Seymour's big break, Yaphet Koto as Kananga/Mr. Big, Julius Harris ... Read More

I could not watch any bonus features on my stand alone Blu-ray player, even with the latest updates. The movie itself played fine after taking some time to load.
Picture and sound are outstanding upgrades! The movie itself sucks. I grew up with Roger Moore as Bond, and have collected them all in every format. That will stop now with Blu-ray. I only rented this one, thank god. As other reviewers have noted, it really is a bad film all around, and Moore never plays it serious. Yech!

I'm a giant fan of James Bond. This one always held a special place. It's probably the cheesiest of the 007 genre, but I like Roger Moore and I guess the music makes it better.

If you want to pinpoint where the 007 series took a nosedive into unadulterated silliness, look no further than "Live and Let Die" (1973). Roger Moore makes his debut as James Bland in this ridiculous blaxploitation-style thriller with slapstick action sequences. The only redeeming aspect is Paul McCartney and Wings' Oscar-nominated song, which deserved a far better film.
