On this ship is ATAC, a communications device used by Britain to control its fleet of atomic submarines.

A Cuban hitman Gonzales kills Havelock along with his wife. James Bond is sent to investigate the whole affair.

However, Havelock�s daughter Melina finds Gonzales before Bond and kills him. He recognizes another assassin Locque, in Gonzales�s house and the trail leads him to an intelligence informant and businessman Aristotle Kristatos.

Aristotle tells him that the KGB�s Contact is a Greek smuggler named Columbo. Columbo accuses Aristotle of being the contact and gives away Loccque�s hideout to Bond.

Agent Y's Opinion


Overall, this is a satisfying movie. Bond gives, yet again, a great performance. The movie has more of a classic spy feel to it and is more enjoyable for this very reason. Also, a rememberable title song by Sheena Easton!
