VERDICT – 4/5

PROS -
1) James Bond is sent to New York to investigate the mysterious deaths of 3 British agents. He got face to face with a heroin magnate armed with a complex organization and a femme-fatale psychic tarot card reader.
2) A fun movie with a voodoo priest, tarot card reader, henchman with a metallic prosthetic arm, crocodile-infested pond, and speedboat chase sequences.
3) Sheriff J.W. Pepper and the Louisiana State Police chasing Bond and "black russians".
4) A refreshing movie where James Bond is fighting a drug-lord and not some super-villain with grand plans.

CONS -
N/A

QUOTE -

State Trooper: J.W., let me have a word with ya. J.W., now this fellow's from London England. He's a Englishman workin' in cooperation with our boys, a sorta… secret agent.
Sheriff J.W. Pepper: Secret AGENT? On WHOSE side?
