  I have always been vastly disappointed by the hate and slander that Bond's 1985 adventure receives. It currently resides at number three in my rankings, and for great reasons too. Back when I first started collecting the Bond movies on DVD and/or VHS tapes, AVTAK was the first that I bought on DVD, and remained my only purchased Bond movie along with GoldenEye on VHS for a period of about five months. During that time, I watched both of these great movies often. AVTAK had me captivated right from the pre-title sequence where Roger Moore engages in a high-stakes ski chase in Siberia against the Russians. As the movie went on, I was treated to a murder at the Eiffel Tower and the ensuing chase for May Day, detective work at Max Zorin's horse stables, the murder of a KGB agent at Zorin's oil pumping station, a fiery encounter at San Francisco City Hall and the ensuing fire truck escape, a flooded mine, and a hair-raising climax on the Golden Gate Bridge. It was purely unbelieveable! Everything was working- Roger Moore as 007, Christopher Walken as "Nightfire's" Max Zorin, stunning action scenes, a rockin' soundtrack by John Barry, and heart-pounding scenes like Zorin's betrayal in the mine and the fight on the Golden Gate Bridge. From this point forward, I was 100% hooked on the world of Bond.
