This “Roger Moore versus Christopher Lee” thriller suffered either because the movie was not that great or because audiences did not care much about Live and Let Die. One of the few 007 movies to open poorly and is usually considered one of the smaller installments. Although it is considered one of the least successful installments, I’m sure that any modern release would love to earn 13.9x its production budget.
