After seeing The Living Daylights, I had to decide who gave the worst performance: Timothy Dalton, Maryam d'Abo,
Jeroen Krabbe, or Joe Don Baker.
They're all bad, so I've settled on Krabbe. That man cannot act at all. Becoming the seventh actor to play James Bond,
Timothy Dalton, who was a good-looking guy back then, is terrible. He's flat and has no personality.
The plot is all right, and as always, the best part is the title sequence. They sure knew how to make it stylish.
By the way, Smiert Shpionam means "Death to Spies." That's funny because they failed to kill 007.
All in all, The Living Daylights is a small improvement over the dreck pictures with Roger Moore but is still
ridiculous.
