I fucking love Licence To Kill. Bond being a proper spy assassin, Robert Davi's brilliant performance as Sanchez, a violent gritty tone and some killer action sequences.
Too bad we hardly got any more of that after. GoldenEye still had some of this tone intact, and i wish it was his film still or that we got 1 more in between with Dalton.
I think a bigger factor than that is he just didn't do it long enough to establish himself as the Bond of any generation. Connery was the 60's Bond, Moore was the 70's Bond into the mid 80's, Brosnan was the 90's Bond. So Dalton is the late 80's Bond lol? If you only do 2 movies the best you'll get is a cult following for Bond...
@@mikesteelheart Same thing happened to Lazenby as well but i think unlike Lazenby, Dalton has ability to carry a film. How much i wished he did a third film. Every single bond became a big hit with their 3rd film, Connery with 'Goldfinger', Moore with 'The spy who loved me' and Craig with Skyfall, only brosnan didn't became a hit with his 3rd.

@@gauravtributes5023 I think 2 movies was just right for Dalton, actually and License to Kill was a perfect vehicle for him. I think the reason why a lot of us are big fans of Dalton is that he wasn't as successful as the other guys. If Dalton did a 3rd movie in say 1991 and it was a big box office hit then they'd want him to do a 4th movie and now Brosnan's getting out of the picture. I just think it worked out best the way it happened with it ending in 1989. I can't see Dalton doing another movie that tops License to Kill for his portrayal of the character.
How awesome is Q? When Bond comes into his Labs he keeps telling him, "Don't be an idiot." But when Q wanders into Bond's world, Bond says "You're a hell of a field operative." That's a compliment, indeed.
Somehow, I always loved License to Kill. Tim Dalton did a great job playing as Bond, Robert Davi played a villain that felt quite real (let's face it, a drug baron in the 80s? they could have the charm, charisma, wealth, and potential for causing harm to protect their interests), and I loved that it wasn't some story with "save the world and country" as its focal point but it was instead more personal for Bond.
@Qasim Hussain They wanted Sanchez to be more like a real life drug lord so a traditional Bond henchman would be too campy. He had Dario which did his dirty work and Heller who's military and basically controls his private army. And Grant wasn't a henchman, he was a professional assassin hired by Spectre.
@Qasim Hussain As Mike said Dalton wasn't playing a traditional bond, he was bond from the books. Maybe that's why Cinematic elements were stripped off from it.
I never understood that as a kid, but I knew it wasn’t good the way the camera pans back to the president. Robert Davi was so good at being subtly threatening.
This is gonna sound really fucking petty, but I hate it when people refer to them as Ninja. They're Hong Kong narcotics agents. Just because they wear some cloths that cover and bundle up most of their bodies does not make them Ninja, especially since they are not Japanese.

One of the aspects of this film, that I've never heard anyone touch upon, which I really enjoy is how dark the British Secret Service is. They're ready to kill 007 because he's a liability. It's often said that 00's have a short life expectancy so the issue of 'forced retirement' never really comes up, but seeing how dark the intelligence world is on both sides truly drew me in. I was disappointed they softened up and took the political approach for the remainder of the story. They could've made it very exciting and left out the Chinese Intelligence agents and instead have Bond ambushed by MI6 Agents, only to be thwarted by Sanchez's arrival. This also would've inadvertently sold 007's cover as a rogue agent for hire. The Ernest Hemingway scene is probably my favourite Timothy Dalton James Bond moment. There's so little there, but the actors play it beautifully and make the tension palpable. We've never seen M at his most Dangerous until this moment and finally realize why Connery's Bond toed the line. Sadly, the only other times we've seen M touch upon ruthless with Bond were with Dench's M giving a veiled threat in Goldeneye, and a quick one in Casino Royal in regards to her real name. A missed opportunity for sure. I think that's what the new Bond films will require moving forward, the feeling that Bond survives in a Dangerous world from all sides.
@@sashaking1115 Since NTTD I always thought Bond should've met his end in a final showdown with M (revealed to be a SPECTRE agent and Blofeld's successor) who has the entire 00 section as his bodyguards.
Timothy Dalton is the best James bond ever. He plays like a real spy unlike Sean Connery, Roger Moore, Pierce Brosnan who all seems untouched, invulnerable, this one is more able to hurt in both mind and soul. No wonder Timothy Dalton is scorpio moon who has very darker personality and revengeful streak it's really hard for him to play the role of suave and cool gentleman and licence to kill perfectly captures the lunar scorpionic nature of Dalton.

This was a great Bond movie because it relied on few special effects and was more gritty than its predecessors. Not some fancy space-age criminal, just a drug dealer who dies in a brutal way, not in a scape ship.
Even though Timothy Dalton was older than Sean Connery was when he started playing James Bond. Dalton was in his early 40s when he got the role whereas Connery was in his early 30s.
The 90's were the final stage of film look just look at the film colour, incredible digital is easier to work with but give me a break looks nothing like this masterpiece.
@@scotts918 Just because you're closer to the books than one actor doesn't make you better. Brosnan and Connery are closer to the books than Moore, yet Moore never dropped stinkers like they did.

As the modern day bond films get more absurd with every entry we tend to appreciate tim more and more in the role..criminally under rated bond and should of got 3 more films to cement his legacy in the franchise.
People often forgot that Timothy Dalton paved the way for a 007 with darker and more serious tone before Daniel Craig came along. At least it’s nice to see now people are giving TD the recognition he deserves in retrospective revisits.
This is by far the best Bond film EVER!!!! Yeah, some people don't like the 2 Timothy Dalton films. Buy Licence to kill is my all time favourite Bong and Timothy is my favourite Bond actor! It's a damn shame Property of a lady wasn't made, it would have been amazing. This film is hard core and gritty and not too filled with OTT action scenes like 300 or Avatar, piles of pap in my opinion. I just love this film and it's the best in the entire series including all the other non official Bonds like the 1959 Moonraker, the 2 old casino royale films and never say never again. I've never listened to the audio books but I will one day. There is even a spin off called the 2nd best secret agent in the world made in the 60's! I intend to watch and listen to them all!!!!
I enjoy this movie alot. I got this ranked #11 out of 24 Bond films. Unfortunately, on its opening weekend in the U.S. it debut at #4 getting beat by 1. Lethal Weapon 2 2. Batman 3. Honey, I Shrunk The Kids
Timothy loved the character and really did his homework. If you watch the Goldeneye watchalong with Pierce in 2020, it's frankly shocking how little he understands the character of Bond.
According to what I researched about this movie; a lot of critics and fans liked this movie because of it's dark realism was a match to the original novels by the James Bond creator. Hard to believe ain't it? Especially when before, it was the least commercial James Bond movie in existence.
I have got two movie DVDS of Robert Davi with Arnold Schwarzenegger in Raw Deal and with Timothy Dalton as 007 James Bond in Licence To Kill as I am dedicating these movie DVDS to my old school friends who are both sisters as I hope to see them both again very soon to Chris and Hester from Billyxxxxx

Actually Dalton had turned it down at first but decided to take the part after his schedule cleared up. Brosnan was forced to turn the role down for The Living Daylights as he contracted to do his tv show and the tv show producers wouldn’t allow Brosnan to play Bond.

@@peterfranks6243 yes Brosnan was offered the role but Dalton did officially turn the role of Bond down in 94 when was filming a mini series and said he didn’t want to commit to multi picture deal that offered after Goldeneye especially after the delay with out filming any Bond films from 89-94.
Aside from Connery, I thought he was the best--looked right for the part and a good actor. Moore and Brosnan were too pretty. Craig? By then I was kinda done with it.
I WAS THINKING!!! Tim has played Neville Sinclair in The Rocketeer and Simon Skinner in Hot Fuzz. He would totally nail Dracula~!!! He has those eyes, man. That smile too

Too bad we hardly got any more of that after. GoldenEye still had some of this tone intact, and i wish it was his film still or that we got 1 more in between with Dalton.
Seems the producers were keen also - the way the theme music is used here is reminiscent of earlier times
I wish Dalton did more bond movies he was really good.
Books cannot be the same as movies. Movies are supposed to entertain. Dark Bond movies are boring.

@@peterfranks6243 yes Brosnan was offered the role but Dalton did officially turn the role of Bond down in 94 when was filming a mini series and said he didn’t want to commit to multi picture deal that offered after Goldeneye especially after the delay with out filming any Bond films from 89-94.
@@scottknode898 you my friend are 1000 percent right..resigned during the filming of Scarlett
I'd say Pierce Brosnan benefited because Goldeneye was tailored for Dalton.
Robert Davi is one of the few cool dudes in Hollywood. Doesn't buy into all the liberal bs.
love the birdie line
ティモシーダルトン超カッコいい‼️😉👍🎶007シリーズのなかでは、彼の2作が私のなかのベストです❤️❤️❤️🙆🙆✌️✌️
2:27 Why you have to scream assassin? Why? How does this help?
Irony is 007 vs Colonel Cortez (Robert Davi's Character in GTA Vice City)
Cool, I forgot there were ninjas in this movie.
President Lopez is played by Pedro Armendariz Jr. Son of Pedro Armendariz Sr who played Karim Bey in from Russia with love.
Aside from Connery, I thought he was the best--looked right for the part and a good actor. Moore and Brosnan were too pretty. Craig? By then I was kinda done with it.
What's with all the Phillps electronics? They would really brand spy hardware? lol
I love Bond's gun.
A James Bond actor more suitable to play Count Dracula. His eyes befit the Count's looks.
I WAS THINKING!!! Tim has played Neville Sinclair in The Rocketeer and Simon Skinner in Hot Fuzz. He would totally nail Dracula~!!! He has those eyes, man. That smile too
Pedro Armendáriz jr
i personally think Dalton did a much better job than Roger Moore. Moore's character seemed the least respected and authentic.
I would have loved to have seen how Dalton's Bond would have interacted with Judi Denche's M.
NINJAS!
Watching again, those ninjas are so God damn stupid 😂
En realidad el villano de esta película está en el Palacio de la Moncloa en este momento
Sanchez's eyes look blue in the thumbnail.
This felt more Tarantino than Fleming/Bond.
Leading Ninja = Shang Tsung BEFORE *_Mortal Kombat_* (1995) and *_*MK11*_* (2019)
007 ✔ bond james bond
what were they thinking
Dalton just couldn't do the action. He did the upper-class brooding killer thing well, but I never believed him in the fight scenes.
0:40 That's the A-hole FBI dude in Die Hard.
Trade Minister Tagomi!!
President of Isthmus Hector Lopez =
= Pedro Armendáriz Jr. (1940 - 2011) ; son of Pedro Armendáriz Sr. (1912 - 1963) who played Ali Kerim Bey in Connery!Bond (2nd) movie *_From Russia With Love_* (1963)
Exactly how my mom died
Why are a these clips shown in 1.85, despite every Bond film from TSWLM being made in 2.35?
It's because Jesus wanted it to be that way...
Actually it’s from Thunderball onwards (with the exception of Roger Moore’s first two films)
Ninjas?
Dalton was probably the best Bond after sir Sean. Wayyyy better than Craig...
