Factual error: The space station rotates for pseudo-gravity, but everyone falls along the rotational axis towards the bottom of the screen instead of falling outward from the axis as they actually would. Admittedly, this would be difficult to film (Stanley Kubrick's astronaut jogging in a giant hamster-wheel in Space Odyssey - nuff respect), so I guess they just hoped the audience wouldn't know the difference.

5.5/10. Possibly the silliest and worst Bond movie until No Time To Die. One movie and the only big franchise movie to try and capitalize on Star Wars success. Watch it for laughs but don't take it seriously like you would others like On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Dr No, and License To Kill. James Bond in space plus part of the plot of The Spy Who Loved Me plus the master race idea. That sums it up.
