The Worst Moment Of Every James Bond Film - Ranked

10. The Living Daylights - Taking Care Of The Supervisor

The World Is Not Enough
MGM/UA

Like most of the worst Bond films, The Living Daylights has many godawful scenes. The romantic montage in Vienna, that ridiculously fake-looking heart prop, an unintentionally funny scene involving main Bond Girl Kara Milvoy hitting Bond with a pillow and the lame airfield battle (in which Bond is aided by what would become the Taliban) all stand out. Still, at least the film gets the worst thing out of the way early on.

While General Koskov (Jeroen Krabbe) is apparently defecting to the West, he's being sent through in a pipe and Bond tells his Czech fellow agent Rosika Miklos (Julie T. Wallace) to "take care" of her supervisor to distract him from this. So, what does she do?

She goes up to the supervisor, unzips her overalls and buries his face in her chest so that he can't see what's happening. Then, when Bond is done, she zips up and yells "What kind of girl do you think I am?" before leaving the room.

Yes, that actually happens, although you can be forgiven for not remembering it. This horrendous, cringe-worthy gag, which is made even worse by Wallace's bad acting, is the kind of thing that's so appalling you'll try to scrub it from your memory.
