Dalton, von Sydow and Topol in this mess?

Or they are smart enough not to take their jobs so seriously they allow themselves to star in silly cheesy stuff? I vote for the latter.
And Sydow was to my knowledge, portrayed the world's only evil mastermind brewmeister. And did it brilliantly. To me that elevates him beyond obligatory Shakesperes and drama works -

I enjoyed von Sydow in the movie. Dalton was OK. Topol looked good in the action scenes. But I didn't care for his dialogue. He sounded as though he was making too much of an effort to sound English. Rather than putting some expression into what he was saying. I don't know if any of the three actors felt that the movie was beneath them. But I think that von Sydow was enjoying himself from what I could see.

I always wondered about Dalton steeping away from the James Bond series.
So I get to play an action hero who
always
wins, with beautful women, in exotic locations, and make a &^%$ful of money? No, I'd rather not.

Dalton probably got tired of waiting for the next James Bond movie to be made. There was a six year gap between the release of
License to Kill
(1989) and
GoldenEye
(1995). Legal disputes and script rewrites delayed the production of what would have been Dalton's third outing as Bond, which was supposed to start filming in 1990 and be released in 1991. Many people also doubted that the Bond movies could still be relevant in the 1990s after the end of the Cold War and the outbreak of AIDS.
