This is the best Bond intro stunt yet. Out the door with no chute. What would you do? He kept his "Bond Cool" thought what to do, didn't panic, and his training kicked in. I know it's all planned out safely but, it's still classic Bond. In my teenage era we used the term: "cool head."

For all _Moonraker_ is derided (mostly deservedly), it _did_ have one or two extremely effective set pieces. Apart from the extraordinarily unlikely circumstance of Jaws surviving his plummet to Earth for comic effect (thus ruining the previously established tension, I feel), this ‘trap’ was legitimately scary. Had Bond failed to reach the pilot in midair, he’d have been a dead man. There was zero room for error. And the G-force simulator trap later on is exceedingly well done - terrifying and even quite surreal.

Gotta give props to the stuntman playing Jaws for actually acting and making it look like Jaws is panicking when his chute doesn't open.

Even though the audience knows Bond will survive (as its only ten minutes into the film) the stunning visuals of the actual location shoot add tension to it. Though I have to argue it's a flawed sequence by the change in tone for the final moments to comic relief by adding Jaws trying to flap his arms as well as the change in music tone. They should have just had Jaws fall into the tent and then "walk away" because he is Jaws . Spy who loved me already established the character is indestructible. But it is what it is. But 90 percent of this sequence remains an incredible achievement of stunt work unmatched maybe only by a few Tom Cruise Mission impossible stunts

Probably the best ever pre-credits sequence in the entire movie series. Just slightly edges out the ski-chase and jump from 'Spy Who Loved Me'. Love how Jaws just happens to be there the whole time, presumably hiding in the tiny cramped back of the plane and then just flies in at the end for a quick bite...

This movie had it all: beautiful cinematography(thank you, Jean Tournier!), practical special effects and stunts, magic/glamour, charming gentleman-agent Roger Moore(even at the age of 51), big budget in 1979: $34 million(every penny is on the screen!)....................

I had a life-changingly terrifying experience in one of those Jetstream planes back as an aero engineering student in the early 1990s; I was sitting near the tail taking measurements from instruments for our "flight test" exercises when the pilot deliberately stalled the plane to show us its stall characteristic. Everyone else on board was ready for it but somehow I was taken by surprise first by the loud stall warning alarm sounds and then by the gut-wrenching nose dive and the sight of the sea no longer below us but like a wall of greyish blue in front of us. That falling sensation, the sight of the sea ahead and the belief that death was imminent haunted me for years and I've never flown well since.

Moonraker is in a way a good film and in another way a bad film. It‘s removed far from anything Bond ever was. The overload of cheesy cartoonyness is terrible. Though I have to say, some gags and one-liners in this movie are actually pretty funny! Even though this is the most outlandish film in the franchise, there is no denying that Moonraker does have 2 scenes that are pretty dark and disturbing instead. Bond in the centrifuge is among the most tense and scariest moments in the series. And Corinne getting brutally killed by Drax’s dogs. These 2 scenes are a bit out of place for such a cartoony film. Drax is an average villain, but I really love his dialog and his great and unique speeches. Jaws falling in love is pretty bad for such a henchman. So while the overload of cartoonyness is pretty bad in this movie, Moonraker is saved big, big time by its fantastic looks! In fact, I think it is the best looking movie in the series! From the first second to the last, it‘s filled up with absolutely beautiful cinematography, extraordinary filmsets designed by Ken Adam and all the models, miniature work and the special effects absolutely have to be praised! It‘s been shot at wonderful locations around the earth! It also has my favourite title song in the series along with a top 3 worthy soundtrack by John Barry! Holly Goodhead is a good Bond girl too, I really like that she also has a sense of humor, like Roger Moore‘s Bond has! I wish the series would have that more often! Overall, Moonraker is a pretty cartoony but spectacular looking movie that I still rank pretty low.

David Semple Moonraker and Diamonds Are Forever might just be the cheesiest films in the series. But in both cases, there is no denying that some jokes and one liners are actually pretty good! Octopussy has cheesy moments too but it has a dark and realistic story, which I really like! In fact Octopussy is not only my personal favourite Bond film but aslo the perfect mix between dark and serious undertones and fun sillyness

The set design and locations are great but the cinematography was fairly average.

Ricardo Cantoral Of course I dont mean to judge your opinion but if you look at this pre title sequence, the cable car fight, the boat chase or the flight to space it is all shot and photographed so extremely beautifully!

Moonraker was bloody ridiculous and nothing resembling the plot of the novel. There was nothing to do with outer space satellites.

Plot Twist: Bond lets him leave and still fly's the plane with a few broken instruments.

Looks real flying without CGI..

At least he's wearing a helmet so he'll be all right upon landing 2:02 😂

2:01 Bet he's glad he wore that helmet

Enjoyed This Movie, The First Time I Saw It. Never Stopped Loving Sir Roger Moore(SIHP). Nobody Did It Better.

0:35 what a kick!!

except some bullet holes in the instruments wouldnt have any affect on the flight worthiness of that plane, he should have just sat down and acted like "well i've finally lucked out" and waited for them to depart the airplane, then he could just fly it away and get to where ever much much faster than those other people!

I see the pilot's chute under his suit.

I love this scene. 007 never die. haha

Even movies of that age was so good in terms of creativity and in mind blowing stunts.

Esse era o 007 de verdade!! O de hoje só mata e apanha!!!

The pilot should be alright, he was wearing that little hat!

Нет больше настоящих трюков , как в старые добрые времена ...

Bond is Bond...and I don't get how in mid air this amazing man keeps his spirit alive, if I were him then.......

That’s when baddies were baddies, jaws terrified the shit out of me when I was a kid.

I saw an interview with the actor on some talk show or other, maybe Letterman. He's a funny guy.

@@annoyed707 Richard Kiel who often played bad guys earlier in his career like two appearances as Jaws in The Spy Who Loved Me and Moonraker and was a bad guy in the Clint Eastwood western Pale Rider in 85 was in comedies late in career like Happy Gilmore as Happys boss Mr Larson. He was 7 foot 2 but was well liked by everyone and was close friends with Roger Moore behind the scenes. Roger Moore was devastated when Kiel passed away in 2014.
