Lines: 30 From: James Hofmann In response to all those who are putting down the new Bond movie, ' A View To A Kill ' with apparently not having seen it, I thought I would straighten out some misconceptions being as I have seen the movie. First of all, the title has very much to do with the plot. I can't give it away but suffice to say that the character played by Christopher Walken is psychotic enough to want to be able to see mass destruction from his personal blimp. Second, Duran Duran provided only the title cut. And if you are just too sophisticated to listen to DD, I suggest you hide out in the bathroom until the tune ends. Don't miss the exciting first scene, though. Bond does some fantastic skiing once again. Finally, it seems whenever a new Bond movie is released a slew of critics sit on the sidelines ready to skewer it. I've heard many comments that this is the worst Bond movie. It definitely beats Moonraker and Never Say Never in my opinion. Thank You, Jim H
