In a race against time that culminates in a dramatic submarine showdown, Bond works to defuse the international power struggle that has the world's oil supply hanging in the balance.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Desmond Llewelyn's final appearance as Q — he died in a car accident shortly after release, making his 'last gadget' scene unintentionally heartbreaking.
The title comes from Bond's family motto, revealed in On Her Majesty's Secret Service — making this the only Brosnan film to directly reference George Lazenby's one-off tenure.
