Why "OCTOPUSSY" Is The WORST James Bond Movie




There are more reasons why OCTOPUSSY is the worst James Bond movie ever, but these are the most egregious. 

Gags, gags, and more gags--all of them bad.

And culminating in our having to see James Bond 007 not only reduced to wearing a gorilla suit, but to being literally turned into a clown.


I neither own nor claim any rights to this material. Just having some fun with it. Thanks for watching!

Far from worst. It's a joy compared to A View to a Kill. And Octopussy's aerial finale is genuinely thrilling.

Yeah, have to agree...View to a Kill was a stinker, Octopussy was the last decent Roger Moore Bond film, IMO. His best one was just before Octopussy though: For Your Eyes Only. Rather than go overboard with submarines being captured (The Spy Who Loved Me), or going into outer space (Moonraker, a rushed file that was CLEARLY designed to ride on the coattails of Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica), Both FYEO and Octopussy really scale down to more believable levels.
