Review of Inside 'the Spy Who Loved Me'

. . . during America's Bicentennial Year, INSIDE THE SPY WHO LOVED ME reveals. Many commentators have noted how much the villains of WWII have been white-washed on the Big Screen since wealthy Japanese "investors" bought up huge chunks of the English-speaking world's film production and distribution capacity. Though the South Koreans are hopping mad, Hirohito's descendants simply chortle back, "Losers CAN be choosers!" So PEARL HARBOR becomes a lame romance, instead of The Day That Once Lived in Infamy. Similarly, if the sheiks HAD latched on to James, no doubt "Q" would have sent him back to 1776 in a Time Machine to snatch a Revolutionary War victory from the Jaws of Redcoat Defeat. Every subsequent Bond would have involved James helping Sunnis prevail over Shiites. The standard for "Bond Girls" would have dropped dramatically, since who could tell the difference when a female is covered head-to-toe in a Burqa? Since INSIDE THE SPY WHO LOVED ME is nearly 41 minutes long, I would have enjoyed learning more about this plot to further subvert the Values of Western Civilization.
