I saw For Your Eyes Only for the first time in ages. As promised, this was definitely more of a stripped-down affair, no megalomaniacal villain trying to take over the world, just some Cold War espionage with a nice little MacGuffin to keep the plot moving. Some really great action scenes in a variety of exotic locales, the skiing scenes in particular still pretty breathtaking from a stunts perspective.
And the climactic fortress battle at the end wasn't your typical secret armies fighting each other blowing shit up or anything like that. Very restrained, with an extremely tense climp up a steep cliff that Bond does by himself. Bond girl Carole Bouquet is all cool French beauty, and there's another girl annoyingly played by some real-life ice skater-turned-actress.
One bad thing is the beyond-dated score by Bill Conti. Thankfully, the mountain climbing scene is mostly without music, a nice choice by the filmmakers.
I'd rate this just below The Spy Who Loved Me for the best Roger Moore outing, or maybe tied with Live and Let Die.
