For Your Eyes Only was Roger Moore's last truly solid outing as James Bond and should have been his final time playing the British superspy.
For Your Eyes Only would have been a perfect sendoff for Roger Moore's James Bond - it's a shame it didn't work that way. Franchises and sequels used to play a far less important role in Hollywood's movie diet, which is partly why the James Bond movies were so popular from the '60s onwards. They promised viewers exotic locations, action setpieces and adventure on a scale most other movies struggled to reach.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Moore played the British spy seven times, making him the longest-serving Bond in EON's franchise. He brought a dry wit and charm to the role, but critiques that he was never terribly convincing with the action or physical side of the role are fair. It's also true - and something Moore himself later confessed - that he stuck around in the role too long. He was 58 when he retired from the part, and his last two outings were among his weakest.
Moore wasn't always a lock to star in For Your Eyes Only, with the opening scene - where Bond visits the grave of his wife Tracy - originally being intended to introduce viewers to a new actor in the role. For Your Eyes Only would have been a graceful note for Moore to retire on, and he very nearly did. 1983's Octopussy came close to casting James Brolin as 007, with the American actor giving several screen tests.
Moore Hated A View To A Kill Octopussy has its campy charms, but the sight of Moore's spy in clown makeup or swinging through the trees like Tarzan undoes the rehabilitation For Your Eyes Only attempted. Whereas Never Say Never Again wisely made Connery's age a factor in the story, Octopussy and Moore's last Bond A View To A Kill decided to ignore Moore's visible aging.
