Dashing Timothy Dalton’s turn as the British secret agent James Bond sees 007 assisting KGB officer Georgi Koskov (Jeroen Krabbe) to defect during a symphony performance. During his debriefing, Koskov reveals that a policy of assassinating defectors has been instated by new KGB head Leonid Pushkin (John Rhys-Davies). As Bond explores this threat, a counterplot surfaces, involving a shady American arms dealer (Joe Don Baker) and a pair of Russian assassins. Directed by long-time Bond favourite John Glen, this epic action showcases 007 using all his wits to combat these forces during this excessive 80s entry into the series.
