Лицензия на убийство
Some critics, such as James Berardinelli, saw a fundamental weakness in the film: the "overemphasis on story may be a mistake, because there are times when "Licence to Kill"s narrative bogs down." Berardinelli gave the film three out of a possible four stars, adding ""Licence to Kill" may be taut and gripping, but it's not traditional Bond, and that, as much as any other reason, may explain the public's rejection of this reasonably well-constructed picture." Raymond Benson, the author of nine Bond novels, said of the film: "It boggles my mind that "Licence to Kill" is so controversial. There's really more of a true Ian Fleming story in that script than in most of the post-60s Bond movies." John Glen has said "Licence to Kill" "is among my best Bond films, if not the best".
