One of the worst James Bond intros ever (I think those psychedelic colors should symbolize the colors of the oil but it looks just crappy)! The story isn't great either although the idea behind it ("Oil is the elixir of life for the West") isn't that bad... All in all a mediocre Bond movie and Brosnan's / Bond's invincibility is so annoying, again!

There’s not a lot to say about this one. They played it really safe and relied on a lot of elements that worked in the past. You can clearly see the continuing evolution of the Brosnan era towards cheesier territory, which once again leads to diminishing returns here. The plot and filmmaking are uninteresting, there’s not a lot to chew on because the new characters don’t leave a mark, nor is the story all that compelling. It’s a very by the numbers Bond flick where its main appeal comes down to the references to the classics. It does lead to some inventive action (boat chase; the ski chase which ups the ante from _On Her Majesty’s Secret Service_), but so much of the exposition and character moments feel way too ordinary. The reliable elements are still entertaining as usual (Brosnan, Dench, Llewyn), however the new supporting cast they recruited kinda sucks (in particular Denise Richards, terrible performance). Overall, while it is forgettable and too devoid of risk, I’d still take this bland film over _Die Another Day_ any day of the week. 4/10

It's a Bond movie with all its pros and cons. Brosnan is still fantastic. They little nuances he brings (like adjusting his tie underwater during the boat chase) are great. Yes, there are parts that are repetitive that we've seen in one form or the other in other Bond films. Does that mean they're less exciting ? No ! I still enjoy those pre-green screen, pre-CGI in camera stunts. They are simply amazing. The story ? Yes, been there, done that. Is the movie less entertaining ? Again, no ! I enjoyed this one, too. Sophie Marceau and Denise Richards have to be one of the best one-two punches in Bond history. Top 3 easily. That counts for something as well, or not ?

One of the best Bond theme songs , Garbage’s theme is still the best part of this outing

A very lackluster entry. This took me over a day to watch it, going in chunks. I kept getting bored by it. Though to be fair, I have seen it before, so that doesn't help.
The plot is convoluted, but not in a fun way. The daughter killed her father to take control of his oil company, and then wants More

This begins the total collapse of Bond films.
We have the usual formula of beautiful women and lots of action, but here the action is very unmotivated.
Bond finds himself a body guard to a spoiled beauty queen, and we figure out early that the real heroine is the more matter of fact educated woman More

Well, they just cannot stop from shooting themselves in the foot can they...? Bond producers are so bloody infuriating!

One fo the best franchises in movie history and they are unable to forge their own destiny - choosing to tread the same old worn path time and time again.

If Goldeneye was a mode More

Love Brosnan as Bond but man was he straddled with a bad script and even worse casting with Denise Richards playing a nuclear scientist. I get pre-Craig Bonds always had a tongue-in-cheek streak to them and ridiculous scenes (the opening boat chase was laughable once it went to the street) but this More
