Every James Bond Girl Ranked From Worst To Best

47. Kara Milvoy - The Living Daylights

James Bond Girls Ranked

Regardless of what you think of this divisive instalment, it's likely most will agree that Kara Milvoy (Maryam d'Abo), The Living Daylights' only Bond Girl of note, is pretty bloody lacklustre.

She's devoid of charisma or charm and Maryam d'Abo's performance also leaves a lot to be desired. In particular, that scene where she gets angry and hits Bond with a pillow is cringe-worthy.

Worse still, she feels more like a prop than a character. Kara's important in the story as she's the mistress of the main villain (but is unaware of his true nature at first) and she helps Bond track him down but since she's otherwise so bland and underdeveloped she's little more than a plot-device on legs.

Kara isn't the all-time worst Bond Girl, but she could just be the most dreary of the lot.
