Probably some of the best action sequences of the series.

Although Glen is credited as editor, Hunt had a major influence in the cutting of the film and I found it funny when Quantum came out everyone complained about the quick cutting. Hunt and Glen doing the same things 40 years ago.
Anyway, the movie is one of the best of the franchise and one of the most true to Fleming. I, unlike others, are glad that Connery wasn't in this one. His Bond, I couldn't see falling in love. Connery's Bond was too two-dimensional. Lazenby brought a vulnerability to the character that was necessary for this adventure.
