Licence to Kill (1989)

Isn't it just as cute as a death button?
Isn’t it just as cute as a death button?

By now, EON Productions had these Bond films running on a rock-solid two year schedule. Writers Richard Maibaum and Michael G. Wilson seemed to have hit upon a winning formula: fuse the few remaining pieces of Fleming’s short stories together with plot elements “torn straight from the headlines of today’s newspapers.” This served the twin purpose of keeping James Bond “relevant” to a changing movie landscape and shaking up the stale formulas that had constrained the series for two decades.

Inevitably, the loudest criticisms of The Living Daylights and its sequel come from Bond fans who felt (and still feel) this series grand quest for “relevance” was a whole lot of tilting at windmills. The Dalton Era gets a lot of flack for a lot of things, but nothing more so than its lack of “fun”; that “campy” “charm” which supposedly made the Moore Era so much more “enjoyable” and the Connery films “instant classics.” Gods forbid anyone treat those like “serious” spy-fi action pictures…even if that’s exactly what they were intended to be.

They succeed on their own merits with no “camp,” required, save the kind the audience brings with it via the expectations in their heads. If you want real “camp,” I’ve got a version of Casino Royale you should check out (no, not that one)…me, I think Bond should’ve gone “darker” decades before he actually did. He might’ve stayed ahead of the trends instead of constantly playing catch-up. Licence to Kill almost does this and, on the strength of that almost, becomes my favorite Bond film of its decade…and the preceding one.

Yeah, that's the face you make when you actually try a vodka martini, shaken, not stirred.
Yeah, that’s the face you make when you actually bother to try a vodka martini. Shaken or stirred, Pam Bouvier’s face speaks for us all.

I know some will cry, “But it’s not even a Bond film!” as if we had any say in that. A Bond film’s whatever EON Productions chooses to call a Bond film. It might not be a Bond film to your taste, but the good news is there’s over twenty more to choose from. If you’re not in the mood for any of those, and baring any sudden legal difficulty, odds are you won’t have to wait more than two years before the next Bond arrives. So let’s lay that particular non-argument to rest. It is a Bond film and the fact that it’s not so strictly beholden to The Formula is a good thing.

Because at long last it does at what previous films tried and failed so hard to do, giving Bond a personal stake in the action he generates. For once, Bond does a job for Bond, entailing the removal of certain narrative crutches which were beginning to annoy me as much as the bad one-liners. While this job bears an astonishing resemblance to the plots of other mid-80s Action Movies, I would say the same of every Bond film of the post-Blofeld era. They certainly resemble each other to an unhealthy, almost unnatural degree. Let’s review real quick:

For Your Eyes Only – Bond must stop a Greek smuggler’s plot to sell a piece of British tech to The Russians.

Octopussy – Bond must stop a Rogue Russian General’s and Anton Arcane’s plot to start World War III.

A View to a Kill – Bond must stop Rogue KGB Asset Christopher Walkin’s plan to rip-off the Richard Donner’s Superman movie.

The Living Daylights – Bond must stop a Rogue Russian General’s plan to…retire peacefully to an island paradise surrounded by bikini babes. And kill his old girlfriend, for some reason.

In my Romantic delusions, working on a Bond film involves a lot of standing around, getting drunk with cool Welsh dudes, like Desmond.

Licence to Kill – Bond rebels against Her Majesty’s Secret Service and embarks on a one-man mission to kill the South American drug lord who crippled his BFF. He does so by ripping off Yojimbo, sowing seeds of distrust and hatred within the drug dealer’s organization before literally burning it to the ground. And then having a the best car chase in the series. Yes, the entire series. Let me put it this way: we’ve seen worse Bond vs. Drug Dealer movies starring David Hedison as Felix Leiter. This particular vengeance-against-narcotraficantes story is ultimately well executed, despite a rocky start and the series usual problems portraying anyone who isn’t a rich, white dude named James Bond.

Including Felix Leither, whom we’ve seen (in the main EON series) all of once in the last fifteen years (and then played by his worst actor so far). Licence to Kill opens with a transparent reintroduction to Felix as he and Bond shanghai themselves onto a DEA raid. It’s their only chance to catch the famous drug dealer we’ve never heard of until now, Franz Sanchez (Robert Davi). They do so, and make it back just in time for Felix’s wedding.  But as we all know, in Bond’s World, getting hitched is a real expensive way to paint a target on yourself…

After…what…?…seven Felix Leiters in sixteen films (counting Bernie Cassey, of course…because I’ll be damned if I don’t) you’d think we would’ve gotten to know something about the character, outside of the fact he’s the CIA’s Designated Bond Minder. You’d think I’d learn something particularly interesting here…but no. This is one area where the haters and I can find common ground. We both see Felix as Bond’s American enabler, same as always, and aren’t fooled into automatically caring about him just because his wife’s hot. I care when he enables Bond into a spectacular areal “fishing” sequence that concludes the pre-credits…but afterward, he’s a living MacGuffin, and the “shocking” circumstances of how he incites the action certainly aren’t that surprising, considering the Bond film’s shark fetish.

I've been seeing guys lasso planes since I was nine.
I just realized I’ve been seeing guys lasso planes by their tails since I was nine.

On the other hand, the stunts in this movie deserve all the praise they get, despite being the most over-praised part of this production. This opening is the most exciting one we’ve seen since…the one in The Living Daylights. The shoot-out in the marina is tense and capped off (for me) by Bond saving a lobster after stray bullets rupture the poor bastard’s tank, one of the most humane things he’s ever done on film ever. The sequence where Bond hijacks a seaplane full of drug money to fund his one-man war (by skiing behind it on a harpoon line and forcibly ejecting the pilots) packs more effective action in two minutes than most Bond films manage in their entirety. The climactic sequence is a master class in How to Stage a Good Car Chase, even if it includes the most ludicrous Bond Stunt since Roger Moore left.

Hell, I could even say good things about Bond’s short fight with the “ninjas” from Hong Kong Narcotics. I want a net launcher I can strap to my arm, damnit! Closest thing to a web-shooter we’ll ever see…but that’s the one thing almost everyone can agree on when it comes to this film. Not the whole “ninja” thing – that’s actually the source of some debate – but that the action is, on the whole, decent. “So what?” you say. “The villainous plot is weak! He isn’t even trying to take over the world.” True…but Sanchez is trying to unite his American drug empire (he claims it extends from Chili to Alaska, but we know there aren’t any people in Alaska, so fuck you, Franz) with his Asian counterparts. He already owns Not Panama…I mean, “Isthmus”…the primary location in this film…

…which they should’ve just called “Panama,” since they’re both banana republics ruled by a self-appointed President For Life, backed by drug lords and whomever else bribes them. (Like, say, the CIA?) Most conflate Sanchez with Manuel Noriega – the real Noriega – but since there’s an actual Noriega analogue in this film (Pedro Armendariz), I’ll take that to mean my countrymen really are as ignorant of their history as voting patterns indicate. I can see why you’d forget Fake Noriega – all he really does is prompt the following great Sanchez line, delivered in typically melodramatic, Robert Davi-with-a-Columbian-accent style

“Remember – you’re only president for life.”

No man can rock a pink shirt like Davi can.
No man can rock a pastel pink shirt like Davi can.

That, his holdings in casinos, isolated mega-churches, whole islands, and his “lead or silver” policy of dealing with politicos, remind me much more of Pablo Escobar. The masters of the universe at Forbes magazine named Pablo one of the richest men in the world just as this movie came out, so what better enemy for James Bond? Has Double-Oh Seven not made a career out of assassination the world’s richest men? Is he not a working class Engine of Death, gradually chipping away at the 1%? The Anti-John Galt? Aren’t all the gold smugglers, ex-Nazis and wannabe-Counts of the past all dead thanks to him? Time, then, for Robert Davi, the first villain in this franchise I honestly love to hate, to try and fill their shoes. And succeed.

As ever, good heroes are defined by their villains, and Bond’s suffered a serious villainy deficit since SPECTRE stopped being a threat. They just never recovered from the loss of that Volcano Lair, leaving a power vacuum someone had to fill, preferably with menace, which Robert Davi sweats just to keep himself cool. From his introduction to his death scene, the man pumps an oily air of ruthlessness into the atmosphere. The cloud around him’s so thick I think the film actually picked it up.  He stands around watching while his pet shark eats a man, which is what makes this the most uncomfortable shark scene in the franchise. Forget the blood: Sanchez straight-up watches it happen and pronounces it “just business.” This is after the most disquieting introduction of a villain since Jaws first opened his mouth. Taken together, these two scenes cement Davi as my favorite Bond villain of the 80s. (Sorry, Christopher Walkin – you were picked before your time.)

And I feel no qualms about whatever fresh hell Bond rains down upon him, especially given Bond’s own history – which Felix mentions, for the first time in eight years. After decades of doing all he can to avoid the subject – as he does with Felix and Delia (Priscilla Barnes) at their wedding – Bond sees Felix suffer basically the same fate his previous incarnation suffered back in On Her Majesty’s Secret Service: a promising marriage violently cut short by supervillainy on the night of its consummation. You could see Bond’s quest as a personal quest to avenge Tracy all over again, using the Leiters as proxies. This is a certainly a better sequel to OHMSS than Diamonds Are Forever.

This is her "James, I'm scared!" face.
This is her “James, I’m scared!” face.

Not that it’s perfect. It continues the trend of a weak title song and poor casting choices for at least one Bond Girl. We’re back to two Bond Girls per film now, meaning Licence to Kill adheres more closely to Formula than the much-maligned-for-trying-to-be-different Living Daylights…at least as far as this element’s concerned…but who wants to play purist?

Not I. So on the Good side, we have Carey Lowell as CIA informant and Felix’s Friend-Who-Happens-To-Be-A-Girl Pam Bouvier. She joins Bond in a Key West bar and together both evade Sanchez’s henchman Dario (young, baby-faced Benicio del Toro). Pam immediately proves herself tough, resourceful, smart enough to wear Kevlar  and willing to get in Bond’s face when he gives her shit. Lowell pulls it all of well, and she looks smokin’…particularly in evening wear. Their mutual attraction is instant, obvious, and completely in-character…which is more than I could say about Bond’s relationship with his last Girl. My only problem with Pam springs from her mild case of Tiffany Case Syndrome, which I’ll discus in a moment.

Teaming up, Pam and I are both stymied by Bond’s pigheaded insistence that he do everything by himself…and his continued interest in Snachez’s girl/prisoner/Andrea Anders rip-off, Lupe (Talisa Soto). I get cozying up to her as part of your grand scheme…but Soto’s such a bad actress, I can’t imagine why Bond’s attracted to her. Lupe’s “I love James” speech is one of the worst non-dubbed line deliveries in any Bond film and her very presence sends Pam into an instant pout. It’s uncanny – like skinny Puerto Rican chicks from Brooklyn (whose voices haven’t quite left, if you catch my drift) are Pam’s red kryptonite: she keeps all of her superpowers, but the radiation fries her brain, reducing her to the emotional maturity of a tweenager.

"He doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And he absolutely WILL NOT STOP. EVER. Until you are DEAD."
“He can’t be bargained with, he can’t be reasoned with. He doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And he absolutely WILL NOT STOP. EVER. Until you are DEAD.”

Still, Lupe’s necessary to the plot, being Bond’s inside girl once she recognizes he isn’t a plant. She’s Maude Adams from The Man with the Golden Gun, but done…differently. Can’t say “better” since Maude was such a better actress it’s not even funny. But both women (and Pam, too) are unfortunately textbook examples of the Richard Maibaum Bond Girl – Scorned, and Looking to Get Even with the Men What Done Them Wrong. Honey Rider v. 16 and 17, or 17 and 18…I was never really counting in the first place. Actresses can go on about their grand plans to play a “modern” Bond Girl all they like. As long as the same old, white men remain in charge of the writing, Bond Girls, much like Bond himself, will be stuck in the same stock roles, and all their talk of “modernization” will be little more than marketing BS.

But Licence to Kill demonstrated it didn’t have to be this way. Not completely. Bond could survive in a post-Rambo world as long as he remained willing to take risks and his directors could shoot action well. If anything, the film’s hobbled by not taking its core concept even further. Halfway through, Bond encounters the ninjas and a fellow British Agent with orders to cart his ass back to London. He’s rescued by Sanchez and the Isthmasian military and that’s the last effect Bond’s defection will have on the plot.

Are we to assume all’s forgiven at the conclusion of Bond’s adventure? That M (Robert Brown) just accepted Double-Oh Seven back with open arms after revoking his titular licence? What about Moneypenny (Caroline Bliss)? She’s the one who calls Q (Desmond Llewelyn) and gets him down to Not Panama with a suitcase full of gadgets. Are they off the hook, too? After aiding and abetting a rogue agent in the destabilization of a strategically important country? Did Bond’s actions help trigger the U.S. invasion of Isthmus Panama? We’ll never know because this film’s already strayed too far into new territory for some people.

Not many men can rock a nosebleed and bloodshot eyes like Benicio Del Toro.

Honestly, audiences didn’t need help being alienated in 1989, one of the most crowded summers in the history of cinema. Indiana Jones and the  Last Crusade led a pack including Ghostbusters IIKarate Kid IIIStar Trek V, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids and the goddamn Batman. In its own month of release (July), Licence squared off against Lethal Weapon 2 and Friday the 13th Part VIII, with Nightmare on Elm Street 5 coming out two weeks later. This movie didn’t lose anyone’s money, as some tell it…but for a Bond film, in North America, in July, it’s numbers well and truly sucked.

I bemoan that to this day and consider it an unjust fate for a damn fine flick, truly underrated in the first twenty-odd years of its life. For all the Roger Moore fans talk of “fun” this is the most fun I’ve had with Bond since the 60s ended. Had it continued in this vein I would probably be the rampaging Bond fan some of my generation have become. I firmly believe that a third Dalton adventure would’ve kicked my ass until it traded places with my shoulder blades…but I’m just as glad he was available to star in The Rocketeer. My feelings on the upcoming Brosnan Era…are right here.

GGGG

Also, Shang Tsung's in this movie. Obviously, your soul is his.

  1. Well, sounds like a decent film not given the time of day due to a cultural zeitgeist against it. Excellent reveiw. Can’t wait for your Goldeneye review.

    Also, thank you for participating tin the Make It So MEGAPOST. I’ll be sure to call on you if I do a Megapost 2.

  2. Licence to Kill also made a great video game (by Quixel and publisher Domark), following six key scenes of the movie. It’s hard to image that so many b-listers (Talisa Soto, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Robert Davi) and up-and-coming stars (Benicio del Toro) are in this movie’s cast. Just think about it, just six short years later Tagawa and Soto would be slumming and hamming it up in Mortal Kombat, the movie. Fate is so cruel, sometimes.

  3. I can’t help but get an all too familiar 1980’s vibe from this film which was about as painful as Live and Let Die; You’ll see more than few faces from Die Hard and possibly other action films and off screen we have the former champion of over scoring action films, Michael Kamen. To me, the motivation of revenge seems all too petty for Bond to ditch the secret service. In the novels, Bond did often did give in to his emotions in frustration but he never would have given up his very epitome of reason in a chaotic world which was Her Majesty’s Secret Service. True, I did actually like the fact that a Bond villain actually seems dangerous in the real world and Bond’s head games. This film could have been great given better circumstances for the plot.

  4. Hey, you’re entitled to your opinion…but for me, it doesn’t work. They kept in too many of the 80s Bond stuff (bad jokes, silly gadgets) for it to mesh well with the 80s action films they were aping. You could definitely find worse Bond movies, but I’m glad that they didn’t go this way, even if it cost us Dalton.

    Wait? What the hell am I saying? I ‘m the guy who doesn’t like any of the Brosnan movies much (Goldeneye is okay, I guess, though it holds the tantalizing possibility of a Sean Bean Bond series before us), and, hell, the Craig movies have basically been “Dalton Mk. II” in terms of series attitude, only a sort of aristocratic thug that Dalton gives us, we get “ANGRY BUT CRYING THUG” of Craig, so, I don’t know, maybe it would have been better had they followed this up with increasingly low budget Bond 80s action films that eventually wound up being direct-to-video, with villains like Lorenzo Lamas.

    1. Bond vs. Renegade needs to have been made yesterday.

      As to Sir Sean…we’ll get to him in GoldenEye. Here I’ll only say that, with a stretch as Bond under his belt, he would’ve avoided typecasting as a shifty double-crosser. Though where the internet meme community would be without that I can’t even guess.

      Obviously, we’re gonna have to agree to disagree on this. All I can say is, the jokes rarely reached my definition of “bad” and the gadgets never reached the level of “silly.” I like your phrase “aristocratic thug,” though. Throw in the word “pretentious” and you’d have a fitting description of Novel Bond, and thus Dalton Bond…at least for me. I’m beginning to feel that a hypothetical person’s enjoyment of this film will be in inverse proportion to the amount of schlocky 80s Action Movies they consumed during their formative years. You can see how much of an impression those made on me by amount of them I’ve reviewed over the years (i.e., “almost none”). Most fled my brain faster than The Living Daylights, so I don’t have the Action Fatigue most Bond fans seemed to be suffering from when this came out…opposite Lethal Weapon 2, no less. Guess which cheesy Action sequel I got dragged to that summer? Sure wasn’t Licence to Kill. And even though I love it, I can smell the desperation wafting off it like a cloud of nerve gas. From space.

      1. I only saw 80s action films on cable with my dad and/or brother, because they were rated R and my folks didn’t believe in taking me to see R rated movies until I was old enough to go by myself. The exceptions would always be made on cable, so that’s how I saw things like Die Hard, Beverly Hills Cop, National Lampoon’s European Vacation etc., etc. I think part of it was simply that my dad wasn’t the type of guy who said “hey, let’s go downtown and watch a movie.” He’d go with the family when we all went, but I never saw a movie in a theater with just him, not even once. So the action kind of movies that he would be interested in, we’d see those on cable. Now, Bond, on the other hand, was a family event, and I saw every one released in the 80s except For Your Eyes Only in a theater (and I’m guessing my parents were correct that 4 year old me would have been bored by it). I can’t lie: when I saw this as a kid I quite liked it, possibly as much as I liked The Living Daylights (though that might have nosed this one out based on that crazy car, which I adored). I didn’t get to disliking it until I was revisiting these as an adult.

        “James Bond returns in The Universal Soldier That Loved Me”

        1. In this case, 006/janus/Alec also had they presence and the charisma to be Bond. Sean Bean would have been a bold choice for James Bond back in 1994 and I believe Barbara Broccoli did want him in the role.

          1. If that’s the case, I wonder why they caved and finally gave The Bros his shot? Did some rogue, pro-Brosnan alliance unite against Barbara out of spite? Or revenge for choosing Sheena Easton to sing “For Your Eyes Only”? The best idea I’ve heard involved Bean and Brosnan trading roles, with Sean as Bond and Brosnan as the villainous Double-Oh Six. Don’t know how much it would’ve really effected the quality of that film (probably not much), but it would’ve been an interesting curve ball to throw the fans…and the early 90s were probably the worst possible time to throw curve balls at anyone. The cries of “James Blond” might’ve come ten years earlier than they did.

            1. Cubby Broccoli had the final say about who is Bond and given that he wanted Brosnan back in 1987, it’s not surprising who ended up as Bond in Goldeneye.

              As for Brosnan as 006, I think that would have been a splendid idea. You could have Brosnan as the classic model and Bean as the new one going head to head.

              1. It’s also brill because Brosnan plays like a parody of previous Bonds, with all the smarm of Moore and Connery, the casual brutality of Connery and the glibness and bad mugging of Moore in one “sexy” package. I’d love to have seen Bean kill him.

              2. That’s not entirely accurate. Cubby Broccoli wanted Dalton as far back as “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service”. Dalton even tested, but was in his mid-20s at the time, and felt he was far too young. He was considered again for “Diamonds are Forever”, but again turned it down as he still felt too young. I believe he was considered for Octopussy as well, before Moore came back.

                Dalton was offered the role of Bond first after Moore retired, but he was filming “Brenda Starr” so they offered the role to Brosnan, who accepted. But Brosnan was tied to “Remington Steele” for 7 seasons, though they were planning to cancel it after the 4th.

                Seeing potential dollar signs of having Remington Steele played by the new James Bond, the network tried to strike a deal with Cubby for Brosnan to do both roles, but Cubby said no. He’s either be Remington Steele or James Bond. The network had 60 days to decide to renew for a 5th season, and on the last day, they did. Thus Brosnan backed out.

                Because of the time it took to decide, Dalton completed work on “Brenda Starr” and was able to accept the role. And thus, (IMHO) We were treated to the only “Ian Fleming” James Bond of the series.

                I’m sure Broccoli also liked Brosnan and wanted him, but, at least when they were casting “The Living Daylights”, Dalton was Cubby’s first choice.

                I have to say, I have serious admiration for Dalton. While he’s my favorite Bond, and while “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service” would have been fantastic with an actor of Dalton’s calibre in the role, I think he was right to say no. Audiences already were irritated that Moore’s lighthearted approach was gone when Dalton took over. I think they would have been even more perturbed if Bond had gone from aged, seasoned Connery to the young Timothy Dalton.

                Still though, it would have been interesting to see what the series would have done with Dalton in the role (And don’t get me wrong, I did like Roger Moore). Because if the role had been taken over by youthful Timothy Dalton, he could have written his own ticket for the number of films he did. He would have had over 20 years to play the role before he became too old.

                Still, I’m happy we got the two films with him we did. I’ve read all the novels from Fleming to Deaver. When I first watched Dalton, I thought he was ok. Not the best, but good. After reading the books, I got the boxed dvd sets and watched them from Dr. No on up. After reviewing Dalton’s outings, I finally saw how close he wanted to be, and was, to Fleming’s concept of the character, and he became my favorite Bond.

                1. I know they wanted Dalton back in the 60’s, and the 70’s, but Brosnan was assigned to role in the 1987 after Dalton bowed out so it made sense for Cubby to keep in mind eight years later when Dalton left for keeps.

                  1. Oh, I know. I was merely correcting the misconception that in ’86, Dalton only got the role because Brosnan didn’t do it and was the replacement. Technically, he did fill in after Brosnan backed out, but Cubby cultivated him for the role for years and he was the top choice before saying no, then saying yes. I forgot to mention “For Your Eyes Only”. After Moonraker, the initial idea was to cast Dalton, Ornella Muti as Melina, and Topol as Columbo, but Dalton didn’t like the comical direction the series had gone in, so he declined at the time (I wonder if he’d have said yes if he’d been able to see the FYEO script, as it’s humorous, but a lot more serious in tone than any of the 70s films prior)

                    In the end, they only got Topol, and Moore was lured back in for another outing. In 83, Dalton was considered, but never formally approached because they decided Moore would be better to have as Bond than a new face considering they were competing against Connery’s return in “Never Say Never Again.” It appears to be the right choice, as they beat NSNA at the box office.

                    I really wish Dalton had at least one more. Goldeneye would have been perfect for him. But being 50 when production started, I can see why Dalton declined (Though he still looked the part even at 50)

  5. Hello.
    Can you see the message?
    Can you explain what “Honey Rider v. 16 and 17, or 17 and 18…” means in the review ?

    1. On top of everything else he did, screenwriter Richard Maibaum established the template by which almost all subsequent Bond Girls would be characterized. Following Honey Rider, from Dr. No, they are generally Spurned Women, Out For Revenge Against the Man That Done Them Wrong with a Defining Element of Tragedy instantly familiar to any fan of superhero comics. Usually dead spouses, dead significant others, dead parents, or rape. This allows them to be active participants in an action movie without being “aggressive” enough to threaten the fragile egos of the mouth-breathing man-children in Bond’s audience. Because they’re broken, you see, requiring Bond “fix” them over the course of the story…usually with his penis. Because that’s how relationships work, right? Especially if you’re a super spy. Hence my dismissive labeling of Pam and Lupe as “Honey Rider v. 16 and 17.”

      1. Thak you very much.
        I am a fan from China. I have tried to put this review translated into Chinese, although my English is very poor. And I am ashamed to put it on my blog without your permission.
        Can I get your forgiveness, please?

        1. You’re forgiven as long as you provide full attribution, including a link back here. And I want you to do me a favor: I want you to tell all your friends about me.

          1. OK, I have done that. But it seems I’m not allowed to add a link in the reply. I’m regretful you cannot see the Chinese translation.
