Licence to Kill	comment	The one where Bond is out for vengeance, and ends up fighting a Tony Montana Expy.Licence to Kill is the sixteenth James Bond film of Eon Productions, the fifth and last to be directed by John Glen and the second and last to star Timothy Dalton. It was released on July 14, 1989. Gladys Knight performed the Title Theme Tune.When escaped drug lord Franz Sanchez (Robert Davi) brutally attacks Bond's old friend Felix Leiter on his wedding night and murders Leiter's wife, Bond starts a personal vendetta against Sanchez that requires him to become a Rogue Agent in the process. Along the way, he gains the help of CIA agent Pam Bouvier (Carey Lowell).Notably, the film is the first in the series that was not named after an Ian Fleming story. The plot does, however, take some inspiration from the James Bond short story "The Hildebrand Rarity" as well as the novel of Live and Let Die. It is the first James Bond movie to be rated PG-13. It is also the first and so far only film in the series to not have any scene filmed at Pinewood Studios.In many ways, this movie was the End of an Era: It's the last film starring Timothy Dalton. It's the last film that would adapt elements and characters from Ian Fleming's books (apart from Bond and MI6 characters, of course) until Casino Royale in 2006. It was the fifth and final Bond film to be directed by John Glen; The last to feature actors Robert Brown as M and Caroline Bliss as Miss Moneypenny; The last film to feature Felix Leiter until the Daniel Craig films; The last Bond film shot during the Cold War, although the plot isn't related to it; The final Bond film to have any editing done by John Grover. The final Bond film co-written by Richard Maibaum, who wrote or co-wrote 13 of the first 16 films in the franchise. Maibaum passed away in 1991. The final Bond film with opening credits by Maurice Binder, who was responsible for the opening credits for 14 of the 16 first films in the franchise. Binder also passed away in 1991. The final Bond film produced for Albert R. Broccoli, after 16 consecutive films made over the course of 27 years. Broccoli retired years later and his daughter Barbara Broccoli and stepson Michael G. Wilson became the new producers, starting with GoldenEye in 1995. Broccoli passed away in 1996.Dalton was signed to return as James Bond for a third time, but legal issues (a lawsuit concerning television licensing rights sold off cheap by the new MGM owner, Italian fraudster Giancarlo Parretti, to finance the purchase of MGM, without approval of franchise co-owner, the Broccoli/Wilson family), coupled with reluctance, if not outright resistance, of the new MGM management in 1993 (after Parretti was arrested and his bank, France's Credit Lyonnais, assumed control) to see Dalton return once more, kept the series in a long-running hiatus (six and a half years, the longest gap between two films in the franchise to this day) until Dalton officially resigned in April 1994. Pierce Brosnan was then announced as the new James Bond in July of that year.Preceded by The Living Daylights and followed by GoldenEye.

Licence to Kill / int_1439161f	comment	Bond holds Pam at gunpoint and ferociously accuses her of being a mole. Pam reveals that Bond's failed assassination attempt on Sanchez has spooked Heller, who the CIA were this close to convincing to steal back the Stinger missiles from Sanchez, which would have stopped Sanchez using them on civilian American planes. Bond recoils with a horrified look on his face, as a dejected Pam tells him there's more to it than just his personal vendetta. Up to that point, Bond's focus was pretty much 'kill Sanchez ASAP'; afterwards, his goals broaden to include dismantling Sanchez's entire operation while he's at it.

Licence to Kill / int_14beeefd	comment	Darker and Edgier: This remains the darkest Bond flick (until the Daniel Craig era), to the effect that some audiences were turned off by the violence. Others thought it was more faithful to the books. In fact, some scenes had to be trimmed or removed to avoid an R-rating (They were later restored for the Ultimate Edition DVD/Blu-Ray). It did get a 15, roughly equivalent in terms of what's allowed, in the UK and is the only Bond film to date to have a theatrical release rated 15.

Licence to Kill / int_1501e2dd	type	Hero Antagonist
Licence to Kill / int_1501e2dd	comment	Robert Brown's M, the Hero Antagonist in his two scenes, who shows No Sympathy towards Bond's vendetta to avenge Felix and his late wife to the point he scoffs "Oh, spare me the sentimental rubbish," issues a man hunt on Bond when he goes rogue and sent out his agent Fallon, to arrest Bond, dead or alive. That's right, M is preventing Bond from going after Sanchez. What's even worse with M's actions are that he never tells Bond that there are several operations going on in Isthmus City, and that he has "a man" in town working on Sanchez, which causes Bond to unintentionally screw up the actual plans of the other law enforcement agencies had in place, and gets a lot of them killed. When Bond asks incredulously that they're doing nothing, he should have replied they did have something going on, and to cool his jets while they dealt with a delicate situation. One has to wonder that given the recasting of the role with Judi Dench starting in GoldenEye, and the fact M is a Legacy Character, if Brown's M was forced to step down from his position in between the Dalton and Brosnan films due to sinking to a new low by his somewhat heartless mishandling of this situation with Bond's pursuit of Sanchez. The novelization goes a long way to rehabilitating M's character, revealing in the sequence between him and Moneypenny that he's changed his mind, and making it overtly clear that the memo he gives Moneypenny that we see in the film is actually an order from him for Q to go on leave and assist Bond against Sanchez.

Licence to Kill / int_1c445e86	comment	Poor Communication Kills: M made a serious mistake dealing with Bond. He very well knew the CIA and Hong Kong agents had operations going on in Isthmus City, and that there were plans to take down Sanchez. However, even if he didn't want a hotheaded Bond to add himself to one of those operations if he knew about them, at the very least he could have refuted Bond's idea that the Americans were doing nothing. M should have said that there was a plan going on, instead of the old "they knew what they were getting into" line. It's understandable as a matter of discipline in that a subordinate like Bond generally shouldn't have to be given a reason to follow his commanding officer's orders... but M has to know Bond better than that by now. A more egregious example is Pam Bouvier agreeing to go along with Bond and help him in his revenge plan against Sanchez, but never at any point revealing that she had her own orders to try to bribe Heller and retrieve the Stinger missiles.

Dario is shredded feet-first through a cocaine grinder. Colonel Heller is impaled on a forklift truck which is then rammed through a wall. Perez and Braun are driving in a truck that gets completely engulfed in flames, which then sails over the side of a tall cliff. Finally, Sanchez himself, soaked in gasoline, is lit on fire and runs around screaming, before his tanker explodes and incinerates him. Only Truman-Lodge gets the most "normal" death amongst the Big Bad Ensemble (blown away with an Uzi), and the abruptness and hefty amount of blood are still shocking.

As an amusing sign of how standards have changed over the years, when the Bond films were remastered in 2006, the original cut that got an R in 1989 was given a PG-13 this time.

Some of the gadgets Q brings to Isthmus City (the exploding alarm clock and the laser/X-ray Polaroid camera) are never used (in the field). However, if Bond doesn't succeed to assassinate Sanchez with the gun, it only responds to Bond's handprint; this saves his life later when a ninja tries shooting him with it. As a present to their Best Man, Felix and Della give James a lighter which overflares when he tries it out. Bond uses it to finish off Sanchez. Also Felix has a flower tucked into his lapel for the wedding. Bond identifies Krest's Ocean Exotica warehouse as the place where Leiter was fed to the shark when Bond sees it among some of the garbage on the floor (that, and traces of dried blood).

If Bond hadn't found out that Sanchez had escaped before leaving Florida, and if he hadn't raced back to Felix's home fearing that Sanchez had retaliated against Felix, he'd likely have died from his wounds. Felix was, as far as anyone knew, still on his honeymoon, and thus no one would have checked on him until it was too late. It's pure chance that Bond arrives in time to save him.

Bond tried to assassinate Sanchez on his own before he was interrupted by rival agents, but circumstances lead Sanchez to believe that the people who captured Bond were responsible for the attempt on his life. Bond then plants several clues for Sanchez to conclude that Krest betrayed him, such as claiming that the "hitmen" were paid by a man who fits Krest's description, and stashing money Bond had previously seized from Sanchez's operation inside Krest's ship for him to find. Not helping Krest either is the unbelievable nature of Bond's prior escape making him sound like a desperate liar, and Pam impersonating a harbor pilot to crash his ship just to make him look outrageously incompetent on top of being a thief.

Especially telling because, when the scene is later mimicked with Bond throwing Killifer into the same pool, Sharkey looks away in horror, but Bond isn't disturbed at all and coldly keeps watching. Pam mentions that Dario "used to be with the Contras until they kicked him out". One of Sanchez's drivers is shown rescuing another driver from a burning truck, after Bond makes them crash. Heller doesn't particularly seem to mind being the head of security/paramilitary enforcer for a major international drug-lord in general terms, with all that implies. However, the fact that he makes a deal with the US Attorney General after Sanchez buys Stinger missiles and threatens to shoot down an American airliner if the DEA doesn't back off suggests that this is a shade too far for him. Sanchez himself explains to Krest at one point that loyalty means more to him than money, explaining why he pays Killifer the money he promised him. So, brutish murderer and drug kingpin though he is, Sanchez clearly values the loyalty of his underlings and will reward it very well. But cross him and you're marking yourself for death.

This ends for him as you'd expect it to — namely, in his unpleasant death. Krest's death pulls no punches in exactly both exactly how gruesome and vicious a death by explosive decompression can be (it's interesting to compare this with Kananga's death in Live and Let Die) and what kind of vicious psycho would do such a thing (and thus become the type of villain James Bond opposes to begin with). Notably, even Bond himself is kind of freaked out by it. Fearful that this might attract the attention of his bosses, M revokes Bond's licence to kill after admonishing Bond for his Roaring Rampage of Revenge against Franz Sanchez, who attacked Felix Leiter in retaliation for having him arrested for narcotics smuggling. Truman-Lodge's angry ranting also showcases the fact that, yeah, all of that crap Bond blows up is expensive and very hard to bounce back from in a financial way. Same as Krest, he has the bad luck of pointing this out to his boss at a very bad time...

Licence to Kill / int_5ee26f31	comment	Adaptation Amalgamation: An interesting one, because the movie isn't directly based on any Ian Fleming novel - instead, it's mainly constructed around plot elements that were dropped from earlier adaptations. The film lifts Felix Leiter's shark attack - down to the "He disagreed with something that ate him" note - from the novel Live and Let Die... the movie version of which starred David Hedison as Leiter. Plus, both stories have the villains using tropical fish for the purposes of smuggling, though whereas in the book it was pirate booty, in the film, it's drugs. Milton Krest and his boat, the Wavekrest are from "The Hildebrand Rarity", although the titular rarity — a fish — doesn't appear. Krest's wife-beating habits are transferred to Sanchez. As for The Man with the Golden Gun, Sanchez himself shares many qualities with the novel's version of Francisco Scaramanga, both being crime lords in Central America, although he's more Faux Affably Evil. It also lifts the plot of Bond joining him as a "problem eliminator" to destroy his operation from within. Sanchez even looks a bit like Scaramanga and they even have some similarities in their names (Both are named '[variation of Frank] [surname that starts with S]').

Licence to Kill / int_6a47a1e2	comment	Knight of Cerebus: Franz Sanchez, who beats his girlfriend with a whip and has her secret lover's heart ripped out with a knife. After being captured by Bond and Felix in the opening, he later escapes from jail, maims Felix and murders his wife, setting up Bond's Roaring Rampage of Revenge. Throughout the movie, as Bond starts getting under Sanchez' skin, the villain starts killing his own henchmen in some rather gory methods like making one explode in a decompression chamber and impaling another on a forklift. Even compared to the Daniel Craig movies, this is arguably the darkest Bond flick of all.

Licence to Kill / int_6bda9a30	comment	Meaningful Name: The movie itself due to the excessive violence. Plus, at least six other blockbusters crowded this movie out of the market in the summer of 1989, making some believe it really was the licence to kill the franchise. At the very least, it prevented any future Bond films from being released in the summer. Later they almost did this with Quantum of Solace, though, although they may have been spooked by the prospect of running against an Indiana Jones and Batman film in the summer...again. Pam Bouvier's name, and her alias 'Miss Kennedy' are a reference to JFK's wife, Jackie Bouvier Kennedy Onassis. In-universe acknowledgement: One of Krest's froggers comments on Sharkey's poor choice of nickname. Guess how he dies? It probably shouldn't have come as too much of a surprise that Killifer ends up dead early on.

Licence to Kill really doesn't show this in a flattering light, considering the number of innocent people who end up dead because of Bond's vendetta. Worse, Bond foils not one but two plots by other good guys against Sanchez' operation, one of them from fellow British agents who are all killed in the process, demonstrating one of the dangers of acting alone rather than through regular channels. However, M and Pam have a considerable amount of time to warn Bond that there are other operations running that he may get in the way of, and they don't, so Bond isn't entirely to blame.

Licence to Kill / int_8cb1a369	comment	Took a Level in Jerkass: Robert Brown's M, the Hero Antagonist in his two scenes, who shows No Sympathy towards Bond's vendetta to avenge Felix and his late wife to the point he scoffs "Oh, spare me the sentimental rubbish," issues a man hunt on Bond when he goes rogue and sent out his agent Fallon, to arrest Bond, dead or alive. That's right, M is preventing Bond from going after Sanchez. What's even worse with M's actions are that he never tells Bond that there are several operations going on in Isthmus City, and that he has "a man" in town working on Sanchez, which causes Bond to unintentionally screw up the actual plans of the other law enforcement agencies had in place, and gets a lot of them killed. When Bond asks incredulously that they're doing nothing, he should have replied they did have something going on, and to cool his jets while they dealt with a delicate situation. One has to wonder that given the recasting of the role with Judi Dench starting in GoldenEye, and the fact M is a Legacy Character, if Brown's M was forced to step down from his position in between the Dalton and Brosnan films due to sinking to a new low by his somewhat heartless mishandling of this situation with Bond's pursuit of Sanchez. The novelization goes a long way to rehabilitating M's character, revealing in the sequence between him and Moneypenny that he's changed his mind, and making it overtly clear that the memo he gives Moneypenny that we see in the film is actually an order from him for Q to go on leave and assist Bond against Sanchez. Bond himself, who becomes more brooding to the point that in different scenes, he interrogates Lupe and Pam Bouvier like a police detective interrogating a criminal suspect due to their connections to Sanchez. It reaches the point that he seems ready to shoot Pam dead after thinking that she's in league with Sanchez, at which point she makes him have a realization about his vendetta.

As part of his Roaring Rampage of Revenge to take down drug lord Franz Sanchez and avenge Felix Leiter and Della, he kills off quite a few bad guys in particularly terrible ways, like feeding Killifer to sharks and shoving Dario down a stone grinder.

Bond, however, answers "You earned it? You keep it, old buddy.", and throws it at him, making him fall in and get eaten. A rare serious example is when Bond asks Sanchez, "Don't you want to know why?", showing him a silver lighter -the wedding gift that Leiter and his wife had given him, before Sanchez had her killed and Leiter maimed by a shark. Bond then sets the oil-soaked Sanchez on fire with their wedding present.

When Krest asks why they don't just kill Killifer, Sanchez insists that loyalty is important to him, and pays up the bribe as promised. The guy does die, but at Bond's hands. Sanchez is smart enough to know that while he might not have anymore need per se for this particular individual, it sets a good example for other potential Dirty Cops. But later in the film, when being chided by Truman-Lodge about the cost of losing two tanker trucks full of heroin dissolved in gasoline to Bond's actions, Sanchez declares that "...it's time to start cutting overhead", and guns him down with an Uzi.

Also, when Bond throws the briefcase at him, Killifer actually lets go of the rigging he's holding on to in order to grab it! Greed kills, indeed.

Licence to Kill / int_c10da874	comment	The '80s: Bond is a lone man-on-the-edge Cowboy Cop fighting a Latin American drug dealer who's bringing in wealthy Hong Kong businessmen to sell cocaine all over the world and whose henchmen include an ex-Green Beret, an ex-Contra, a yuppie banker, and a televangelist. Every car is boxy as hell, Pan-Am Airlines still exists, and Pam has trendy short '80s Hair and a background as an army pilot in Central American warzones. Bond himself is perilously close to having a mullet, the series' gore has never been higher, and the ending song is a synthesizer-backed love ballad. This is probably the Bond movie that most screams "'80s action movie" ever. A small detail that very much dates the movie in the 80s, is Sanchez' scheme to smuggle cocaine to Asia by diluting it in gasoline. Following the price crash in the 80s after the 70s gas shortage, this sounds not too bad. By modern standard, one might feel inclined to think that Sanchez might as well ditch the cocaine and just sell the gas.

What's worse is that it crosses into negligence if M and MI6 knew about the Hong Kong narcotics agents' operation (remember, Hong Kong was a British colony at the time) and yet they didn't tell Bond that when he asks incredulously that they're doing nothing. However, Bond's reaction gave no time for a debriefing. Someone subverted in the novelization, as the memo M hands to Moneypenny that is glimpsed in the film is M telling Q to go on leave and help Bond. Further, in the novel, when M says Bond has to be stopped, he adds, "Or helped."

Licence to Kill / int_d397657d	comment	Hoist by His Own Petard: Sanchez would probably have been much more safe if he'd just returned straight to Isthmus after paying off Killifer. His decision to retaliate against Leiter is what costs him his entire drug empire and life in the end. Killifer, Leiter's DEA partner, sells him and Della out for $2 million. Later, when Bond has him dangling over a shark pit containing the same shark that Leiter was fed to, Killifer desperately offers Bond the money, only for Bond to decide he should keep it... by throwing it, and the metal case it's in, right at him. This causes Killifer to lose his grip and fall right into the shark pit, and promptly get eaten. It was a terrible waste... of money.

Licence to Kill / int_d39e327f	comment	What the Hell, Hero?: Bond gets one from M after he drops Killifer into the shark tank without the authority from the Americans or M, and Pam Bouvier later calls Bond out when she and Q catch up to him in Isthmus for letting his personal vendetta endanger a critical DEA plan to cripple Sanchez's operation. In Bond's defence, he didn't know about the operation: and the DEA couldn't know that something was happening because Kwang is a Hong Kong Narcotics agent, hence why the DEA picked up Sanchez at the start in the first place, and Kwang had managed to raise Sanchez's suspicions independently by asking all of the wrong questions. Pam herself is CIA: she's referring to Sanchez's owning Stinger missiles he was threatening to use to shoot down American passenger planes if the U.S. didn't stop harassing him. Her operation was trying to get the Stinger missiles back, but Bond's assassination attempt spooked her contact. This, combined with Bond realizing he blew Kwang's operation as well, makes him realize his Roaring Rampage of Revenge wasn't that clean and simple, so he broadens his goals to include dismantling Sanchez's entire operation while he's at it. It would've been awesome, except a lot of good agents and people were killed by his fuck-ups. In his defense, while Bond keeps up the traits and skills that he uses so well in the field, he's obviously not in a professional state of mind, and thinking things through, due to the fate of the Leiters tearing open Bond's own healed scars of losing his wife on his wedding day. Also, their fates are worse, as Tracy died instantly from a bullet to the head, whereas Della was raped before her murder. Also, Bond was unscathed in his wedding day attack, while Leiter was maimed for the rest of his life.

Bond casually admits to Sanchez that he's a former British agent, as it actually helps his cover as an assassin-for-hire (especially since he doesn't specify just how recently he'd been suspended). It also throws off any suspicions Sanchez had about him, even after he gets one of his men to profile Bond. Even before Bond bluntly tells Sanchez that he's a renegade MI6 agent, Sanchez notes that it takes a lot of balls to waltz into Sanchez's casino while carrying a firearm, throw away money like an asshole, and personally offer his services to one of the biggest drug lords in the world without anyone able to vouch for him. He does seem to think the whole thing is Actually Pretty Funny, so he tells Bond he will get back to him after his guys have checked him out.

Another is the DEA's plan, through Pam Bouvier, to bribe Sanchez's head of security to steal back the Stinger missiles he's threatening to use against America. The third is James Bond's own personal vendetta against him. As might be expected, the three plans collide against each other rather messily.

Nevertheless, he tries to fit it into the Bond literary continuity, which makes things more complicated, since quite a few scenes and characters from the movie are lifted directly from prior Fleming novels. Felix Leiter gets attacked by a shark in a chapter, "Lightning Strikes Twice", and the shark bites his prosthesis off, because apparently this Felix lost his leg to a shark in Live and Let Die. And yet Milton Krest (adapted from the story "The Hildebrand Rarity") appears again, meaning the novelization doesn't fit neatly into either the novel continuity or the film continuity.

Licence to Kill / int_e5421161	comment	Expy: Sharkey appears to be one of the Quarrel family. Regarding Franz Sanchez. He seems to be one for both Pablo Escobar (a South American drug lord who liberally bribed and killed anyone who got in his way, "Plata o plomo" ["Silver or lead"], the name of Escobar's "policy" being even directly referenced) and Manuel Noriega (another Latin American drug lord who was the de facto ruler of a Banana Republic - Panama - in the '80s). Regarding the latter, both Noriega and Sanchez's actor, Robert Davi, have noticeable pockmark scarring on their faces, though that could be purely coincidental. Lastly, extended material also says Sanchez is half-German (hence the name "Franz"), like Carlos Ledher. Sanchez also bears some resemblance to earlier Bond villain, Francisco Scaramanga. Both even have roughly similar-ish names (Both are the initials "F.S." and both start with a variation of "Frank"). Sanchez has also been compared to being Tony Montana-like in terms of their power, their business and invulnerability with the law, but generally subverts most of Montana's tropes (E.g. Woman are generally off-limits to Montana while Sanchez is abusive towards his mistress, and Montana's paranoia and downfall was caused by his own use of his products whereas Sanchez is never seen getting high and that his downfall stems from Bond's manipulation).

Licence to Kill / int_f2d8e3c2	type	Evil Plan
Licence to Kill / int_f2d8e3c2	comment	Evil Plan: Sanchez's scheme involves cocaine hidden in gasoline sold to Asian drug dealers, conducted via a televangelist, revolutionizing the drug smuggling business. He's also bought Stinger missiles from the Contras and is threatening to use them on American airliners if the DEA didn't back off. The story, however, is more about Bond's Roaring Rampage of Revenge for what Sanchez and his people did to Felix Leiter and his new wife.

Licence to Kill / int_f511ea9b	type	Product Placement
Licence to Kill / int_f511ea9b	comment	Product Placement: The title sequence is literally a commercial for Olympus-brand cameras. It shows the brand name several times and has a photography theme that doesn't correlate to anything in the movie. One of Bond's gadgets is disguised as a camera...but that's it. It's not even one that he uses; Pam does, but only because she mistook it for an actual camera (also, said camera is disguised as a Polaroid instant camera, not an Olympus). Both the U.S. Coast Guard helicopter and Sanchez's private helicopter prominently display the logo of Aerospatiale, the French aircraft manufacturing company of both of the helicopter models shown. A real-life Lark cigarettes package was used by Bond as a gadget (reportedly the company paid $350,000 for the privilege). When the film was released in the US it was considered enough of an ad that EON Productions was forced to include the Surgeon General's Warning on cigarette smoking in the closing credits of the film. The Kenworth logo is visible several times during the tanker chase. The signature gun is a Hasselblad camera. Bond books a ticket on Pan American World Airways. Especially ironic as Pan Am folded just two years later when it filed for bankruptcy.

Licence to Kill / int_f594c8a9	comment	Fed to the Beast: Sanchez badly maims Felix Leiter by having him thrown into a Shark Pool in revenge for his role in his capture as the rest of his men murder Della, Felix's new wife. Bond starts his Roaring Rampage of Revenge by feeding Killifer, the bribed DEA agent who helped to spring Sanchez, to the shark in turn.

Lupe is visibly uncomfortable and says "You know I hate that thing." At the end of the movie after Sanchez is killed, Bond and the others are at El Presidente's party and Bond sees her lovingly caress the iguana. He says, "I thought you said you hated that thing." Lupe responds, "Don't you know? A lizard is a girl's best friend," while wearing its collar as a bracelet.
