In his second film as Bond, Roger Moore faces one of the series’ most entertaining villains, Christopher Lee as the evil Scaramanga, a man with not only a golden gun, but also a third nipple (don’t ask), and a midget henchman named Nick Nack (wittily played by Fantasy Island’s Herve Villechaize). Britt Eckland is also on hand as one of the Bond Girls (Maud Adams is another) and she has a fine time as Bond’s sexy/clueless assistant. For what it’s worth, the plot is about an international hitman (Lee) who has stolen a solar energy capsule. But why worry about the plot?; just sit back and enjoy the action and the Bondisms.
