Licence To Kill is actually one of the weaker Bond movies.
Dalton can't quite convince as Bond. He sense of humor is completely gone and he has he charisma of an ice cube. Bond is on a mission to kill, but it's still Bond, so lighten up! Licence To Kill somehow doesn't feel as a real Bond movie, it's more of a standard action movie like Die Hard. There's nothing special in it.
The actors are quite convincing, but the storyline isn't very fresh. There are some grueling scenes in this one, scenes that don't belong in a Bond movie. Too much violence for my taste.
As standard action flick, Licence To Kill is okay, but as a Bond movie it is severely lacking.

The Living Daylights is the first Bond movie with Timothy Dalton as 007. Dalton does an okay job, but he misses the warmth, humor and charisma that both Connery and Moore brought to the role. Dalton treats Bond like something from Shakespeare.
The film is a bit too long, though the storyline is quite realistic. The acting is okay for the most part.
The Living Daylights was written with Moore in mind, so there's still some humor elements left. Those elements would totally be gone by the next movie.
The film is an improvement on the previous one, though Dalton still needs to grow in the part.

After six Bond movies, Moore was beginning to show his age. He wasn't planning on starring in another 007 movie, but it happened anyway.
A View To A Kill isn't the worst Bond movie ever, but it certainly isn't one of the better ones.
Compared to the previous one, this one can't match up. Moore doesn't seem to have much fun anymore, the storyline seems recycled and the acting of the other actors isn't very convincing. There is a severe lack in humor, unusual for a Bond movie starring Moore.
The film didn't do too well financially and critically, which isn't much of a surprise. It was time for something new.
