Licence to Kill (1989) Streaming: Watch & Stream Online via HBO Max

Forget the martini shaken not stirred, Licence to Kill (1989), is a grittier Bond film that throws away the general spy formula for a story of vengeance. Released in 1989, this isn’t a typical Bond adventure filled with high-tech gadgets and glamorous locations. The film takes Bond to a brutal underbelly of the drug trade. It’s a film that doesn’t shy away from violence, making it a standout in the franchise.

Here’s the twist: Bond’s friend, the CIA agent Felix Leiter, gets caught in the crosshairs of a drug lord named Franz Sanchez. Leiter barely survives a brutal attack, and his new bride is murdered. Outraged and fueled by a thirst for payback, Bond ditches his MI6 badge and goes rogue. While it wasn’t a box office smash, the film has established itself as a cult classic among Bond fans.
