Good.  There are any number of movies that suffer because the lead actor
didn't take the job seriously and decided to phone it in or do a campy
performance.  Actors should always bring their "A" game.

It began as a script written for Roger Moore. It's the performance that
makes all the difference.

Dalton is a great actor.
