9.9/10.My second favorite of the Bond movies.Timothy Dalton's great in his second outing as he matches wits with Robert Davi.I would've given it a 10 but I didn't really like either love interest of Talisa Soto or Carey Lowell.They both have a connection to one of the worst TV franchises ever, Law and Order, and they really aren't that good.Still it's great fun with Dalton proving he's as capable as his predecessors playing 007 James Bond.My three favorites are in this order:1.On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969 George Lazenby) 2. License To Kill (1989 Timothy Dalton) 3. Dr No (1962 Sean Connery).

Felix Leiter: Where's my wife?
Dario: Don't worry. We gave her a nice Honeymooooon.
Trivia: 'License To Kill' was originally titled "License Revoked". (You can see on the DVD Special Features a copy of the script with this title). The title was changed at the insistence of MGM, who claimed audiences would not understand what the word "revoked" meant.
Question: Who's the character who's the driver of both Sanchez's car and (after the second truck explosion and the shooting of Truman Lodge) one of the 2 remaining tankers throughout the truck chase at the end? Can't seem to find any info on him. Don't think he dies, as we see him leap out of the truck just prior to it tipping over (due to the damaged brake pipes) during the final confrontation between Sanchez and Bond.
