Licence to Kill

1989· PG-13· 2h 13m· Action· Adventure· Thriller

James Bond is out on his own and out for revenge.

In "Licence to Kill," 007 abandons his moral code when Felix Leiter, a former CIA operative and close friend, is crippled and his wife killed by the vengeful drug lord Franz Sanchez. Rejected by his superiors, Bond goes rogue, infiltrating Sanchez's criminal empire from within. The film's gritty, no-holds-barred approach to its hero’s vendetta underscores a darker, more personal mission for the world's most famous secret agent.
