He was very credible in the fight sequences, showed a lot of charisma and gravitas throughout (which can't be faked) and did that last scene perfectly. I truly don't believe Connery could have done that scene as well. That scene ranked among the very best of acting performances in a Bond film (or any film).Anthony Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02928488364484462927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5788875373841955612.post-83811740194330195392020-11-16T08:19:29.389-06:002020-11-16T08:19:29.389-06:00I've always been curious about this movie but ...I've always been curious about this movie but never did see it as it's never readily available in Bond marathons and was never broadcast on ABC in the 80s and 90s and the others in the franchise were. I've read very mixed reviews of it over the years, with some saying it was one of the best of the franchise and others not being able to get past the ho-hum performance of Lazenby. I definitely need to give it a look sometime. Crazy story of Lazenby conning his way into the job yet still being offered the opportunity to do more. Crazier yet that he turned down the offer to be James Bond beyond one movie! The only other show or film I've seen Lazenby in was a stint on the late 90s series "The Pretender", itself something of a "MacGyver" stepchild.Markhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04953380288384883179noreply@blogger.com
