In fact, the story is pretty good, except that Bond changes from Sean Connery to George Lazenby, which makes the audience feel unhappy. This Bond is too narcissistic, and the fighting moves are too exaggerated (same as fighting comics), nearly two and a half hours of filming. It's too procrastinating... but at the end Bond throws a hat at Moneypenny is very touching.

I really like the woman in it, that Countess. It looks so good in a riding suit. The male protagonist looks a bit like the thief in how to steal a million. It's a pity that the heroine ended up hanging up.
