Roger Moore Takes On Bond

Live and Let Die looks great on Blu-ray and includes some good, if not amazing, extras. This film features the best looking Bond-girl ever, Jane Seymore, looking amazingly great, and early on, has Madeline Smith (the star of The Vampire Lovers if you'd like to see a lot more of her, literally) also looking wonderful, albeit only in the short opening sequence. The villains here are all black, which makes the film a bit controversial, but so was the novel on which it was based. There is a great mix of comedy, action, and adventure. It's not one of the great Bonds, but it may be Moore's best, since his interpretation of the part grew ever more comic at the expense of seriousness as his films went on. Thank goodness for Daniel Craig's return to Bond as a man with a dark side to be feared. This is my first experience with Bond in the high-def format, and I got it here on Ebay for a fraction of the price I'd have paid in a store. In fact, Ebay seems like the only place to get full price Blu-rays at a decent price.
