Synopsis

Moonraker (1979) is the eleventh James Bond adventure, and you can watch it online on iFILM. A Boeing carrying a borrowed space shuttle vanishes over Canada, and agent 007 is pulled in to find out who took it and why.

Roger Moore returns as Bond. The trail of the stolen Moonraker shuttle leads to billionaire Hugo Drax (Michael Lonsdale), a polished aerospace tycoon hiding a plan to wipe out humanity and start over. Teamed with CIA scientist Dr. Holly Goodhead (Lois Chiles), Bond chases the conspiracy from California to Venice, then on to Rio and the Amazon. The steel-toothed giant Jaws shadows him the whole way. The final act takes the franchise somewhere it had never gone: into orbit.

Director Lewis Gilbert, who also made The Spy Who Loved Me, leaned hard into science fiction after Star Wars reshaped the box office, making this the most expensive Bond film of its era. Stream Moonraker (1979) online on iFILM.
