At the beginning of the film, this episode has the meaning of paying tribute to the future. Audiences with a good memory will definitely remember the only marriage experience Bond ever had in the sixth "Queen's Secret Envoy", but it is a pity that his wife Tracy was killed by the villain just after the wedding, and Bond was also retired. Shanlin's plan fell through and continued his desperate career as a "Playboy". At the beginning of the film, James first brought a bunch of flowers to the grave of his deceased wife to pay homage, and then sent the boss of the Devil Party to the west to comfort his wife’s spirit in heaven.

Not only that, the place to pay tribute to "The Queen's Secret Envoy" is also the scene in the ski resort. The chase in the snow and the big avalanche of that year were very impressive, and this work is not too much, perfectly showing the thrills of various snow sports. In addition, the underwater adventures in the middle part are reminiscent of the bridges in the fourth "Rolling Thunder", but the pomp and the level of danger are not as great as before. After the baptism on snow and underwater, Bond finally experienced the thrill of alpine rock climbing. There are not many gimmicks in this episode. It focuses on the adventure plot, and the content is compact and exciting. It is also Roger Moore's best performance.

The three Bond girls in this episode also have their own characteristics. Carlo Pogui, who played the most roles, was once considered the most beautiful actress in the French film industry, with a noble and glamorous temperament, which is similar to Diana Rieger in "The Queen's Envoy"; Lynn-Hawley Johnson Played an innocent and innocent nympho cute girl who was so enthusiastic that even Bond, who read countless girls, couldn’t stand it. It was an anomaly. The least role was Cassandra Harris, who played the Countess. Her husband is Pierce Brosnan, the future Bond actor. Unfortunately, she died of cancer in 1991 at the age of forty. Speaking of actors, I will finally mention Charles Dans, the old drama bone famous for the domineering and scheming Tywin Lannister in "A Song of Ice and Fire", but in this 007 is just A soy sauce killer without dialogue.
