Moonraker - Operazione spazio
  • a.k.a. 007 - Moonraker - Operazione spazio
  • Agente 007 - Moonraker: Operazione Spazio

Un miliardario megalomane progetta la distruzione del mondo, ma ci pensa l'agente 007.Uno space shuttle viene rapito da una misteriosa organizzazione capeggiata da Hugo Drax, anche proprietario dell'impresa che costruisce le navette spaziali. Per risolvere l'enigma viene mandato in missione James Bond, che si trova a dover collaborare con una spia della Cia, ovviamente bellissima e affascinante. Le indagini di 007 lo portano addirittura a volare nello spazio. Uno 007 minore, quasi ricalcato dal precedente La spia che mi amava. Fu un successo e, primo tra i film occidentali, incassò vertiginosamente anche in Asia. Ma la vicenda è stantia. In epoca di effetti speciali, i produttori trasformano Bond in una specie di Flash Gordon. Certo la prima parte, meno rutilante del viaggio nel cosmo, riserva momenti divertenti.
