Episode Description

In Licence to Kill, the James Bond franchise attempted to somewhat reinvent itself. After over a decade of light-hearted Roger Moore Bond films, it was time to get back to the source material and make Bond more gritty with Timothy Dalton.

Is Licence to Kill's Bond simply a cold-hearted killer, or is this a welcome return to the spirit of the books of Ian Fleming?

Nowadays the film enjoys a growing fan base among Bond followers.

Recurring Bond guest in the booth is Tom Frankland.

Licence to Kill (1989). Directed by John Glen. Starring Timothy Dalton, Robert Davi, Carey Lowell, Talisa Soto.

This episode is part of The Flick Lab's 'James Bond Marathon', where one Bond episode will be released every last Thursday of the month leading up to the release of No Time to Die (2020).
