The Best Moment Of Every James Bond Film - Ranked

24. Octopussy: Train Set-Piece

Octopussy is one of the weaker Bond films but it does have some good action scenes, the best of which is this train set-piece from the film's third act.

It's not an all-timer Bond action scene, but it is a hell of a lot of fun and is a consistently inventive spectacle too. Unlike the rest of the film, this is the right side of silly, aside from Bond dressing up as a gorilla (to hide from the villains) at one point, and mixes wackiness and suspense with genuine skill. If only the rest of the film had managed to mix humour and thrills so well.

Still, the train chase is an undeniably strong set-piece, although it's not as good as the other twenty-three scenes on this list.
