start with a pre-credits sequence on Gibraltar,
and culminates in a witty final showdown with Joe
Don Baker's arms dealer, set on a model
battlefield full of toy soldiers. While the Aston
Martin model whizzing through the car chase has
been updated for the late 1980s--including lethal
lasers and other deadly gizmos--the plot is pretty
standard issue, maybe a little more cluttered and
unfocused than usual, involving arms, drugs and
diamond smuggling. Nevertheless, the
action-formula firmly in place, this one rehearses
the moves with ease and throws in some fine
acting. Maryam d'Abo, playing a cellist-cum-spy,
is the classy main squeeze for 007
(uncharacteristically chaste for once). Dalton,
with his wolfish, intelligent features, was a
perfectly serviceable secret agent, but never
caught on with the viewers, perhaps because
everyone was hoping for a presence as charismatic
as Sean Connery's in the franchise's glory
days.--Leslie Felperin On the DVD: Casting the new
Bond takes up much of the "making-of" documentary:
first Sam Neill was in the running, but vetoed by
Cubby Broccoli, who wanted Timothy Dalton and had
considered him as far back as On Her Majesty's
Secret Service (but Dalton felt he was just too
young at the time). When Dalton proved
unavailable, Pierce Brosnan was hired. Then, at
the last minute, Brosnan's Remington Steele
contract was renewed and he had to drop out.
Dalton came back in, on the proviso that he could
give Bond a harder, more realistic edge after the
action-lite of the Roger Moore years. The second
documentary attempts to profile the enigmatic Ian
Fleming, who was apparently as mysterious and
chameleon-like as his alter ego. The commentary is
a miscellaneous selection of edited interviews
from various members of the cast and crew. There's
also Ah-Ha's "Living Daylights" video, and a
"making-of" featurette about it. A brief deleted
scene (comic relief--wisely dropped) and trailers
complete another strong package. --Mark Walker

Best Bond since 1969!
Review of The Living Daylights (Ultimate Edition) by arthurpringle

Advantages: Beautiful locales, exciting action, Timothy Dalton's confident debut
Disadvantages: Slightly complicated plot

...A View To a Kill the producers of the world's most enduring franchise had not only to find a new James Bond but also freshen up their slightly tired series. 33 year-old Pierce Brosnan was eventually hired and after Michael G Wilson's proposed origin idea was rejected by Albert R Broccoli, a taut more grounded film was planned with Fleming's short story giving the film both its title and opening sequences. At the last minute Brosnan's Bond dream was ...
...had spoken to Broccoli about the James Bond mantle several times before but now he was finally free and Broccoli needed him desperately. The Living Daylights opens with a well directed pre-credit sequence set on Gibraltar. A military exercise between the '00' section and the SAS is gatecrashed by an enemy Agent. He kills three men before Bond pursues him in an exciting runaway Jeep set-piece. Timothy Dalton does a lot of his own stuntwork and proves ... Read review

Professional reviews

Review: ...[Dalton] has enough presence, the right debonair looks and the kind of energy that the Bond series has lately been lacking....This cast is a good one... (New York Times, )

...Timothy Dalton's a class act....The Fourth Bond registers beautifully on all key counts of charm, machismo, sensitivity and technique... (Variety, )
