    I'd always assumed Hai Fat built the solar power station. But it's best not to look to deeply into any Bond movie, especially the trio that start of the 70's...

    Christopher Lee as Francisco Scaramanga...

    /10 - out of 10
    1. Actor – 9 Christopher lee is just a fantastic actor.
    2. Sadism – 4 there isn't much sadism, is there?
    3. Villain’s Scheme - 3 The challenge is an interesting idea, but they should've kept to the book, which makes far more sense. And the Solar Irritator is just plain wrong.
    4. Physically Menacing – 9 Well he didn't become Dracula for nothing.
    5. Dialogue – 8 Moore and Lee do play off of eachother very well.

    Bonus Round!
    /5 - out of 5
    6. Henchperson – Nick Nack - 3 fun, but rather useless.

    A fantastic actor let down by the script. They really should've taken more time for this one.

    1. 10 Kurt is a classic villainous actor
    2. 7 He does his fair share, but not up to the intimate class of Goldfinger or LeChiffre
    3. 10 Reshaping the World in his own image, it doesn't get any bigger?
    4. 5 Needs his henchmen for that
    5. 7 Good enough, but I can't recall anything particularly outstanding
    6. 5 Jaws is iconic, plus he had one of those big bald wrestler types as well

    1. Actor – 7 - Kurt Jurgens isn't bad, but not that good either. I always feel he's a bit of a second hand Dr. No.
    2. Sadism – 8 - The way he disposes of his secretary
    3. Villain’s Scheme - 6 - So, why did you want to blow up the world again? Because you wanted to live under the sea anyway?
    4. Physically Menacing – 6 - nope.
    5. Dialogue – 7 - not bad,not good either.

    Bonus Round!
    /5 - out of 5
    6. Henchperson – Jaws - 4 Not a fan of jaws at all, but he does what a good henchman does, he poses an enourmous threat, only to be scuttled by his own goofyness.
