by John Sylva
As the movies come and go, some bad, some horrible, some wonderful, it's good to know that you can be reassured that there is still one character you can always count on to bring you first rate entertainment in his films. Bond. James Bond. In "The...more

There are 20 James Bond movies counting 'The World Is Not Enough'. Sean Connery certainly has been the best Bond. In fact, not a single disagreement has come up when I discuss this with other people. Connery's combination of rugged timing, the smooth...more

The film, the third in the series to star Pierce Brosnan as 007, is the familiar mix of outrageous globe-trotting action, eye-popping gadgets and unfeasibly beautiful girls. The plot is hardly worth mentioning since you've seen it 18 times before, the...more

Looking at all the hoopla surrounding the latest James Bond adventure starring Pierce Brosnan, _The_World_Is_Not_Enough_, it's funny to note that the announcement of Brosnan as the fifth actor to play Agent 007 was met with a raised eyebrow. The former...more

Well, another James Bond movie. Still with Pierce Brosnan, but this time with Sophie Marceau and Denise Richards making it to the well-known Bond-girls list. A James Bond movie isn't a James Bond movie without these elements: explosions, beautiful babe,...more

For the nineteenth entry in his forever cherished franchise, James Bond has pulled nothing particularly special out of his hat. At first glimpse of the dashing new Bond girls, the wildly implausible action sequences and the nifty Bond gadgets, dedicated...more

Let me start off by saying that leading up to the release of the latest Bond film, I really wasn't looking forward to it as much as I have with some of the previous films. I'm not sure if it was the fairly lackluster trailers or the ever-present dread...more

Secret Agent 007, now in his 19th official outing, can still act suave, caressing women, guns and cocktails with equal ease. But the series itself is looking long in the tooth and short on ideas. more

The latest installment in one of the most durable franchises in Hollywood history has been released. And by now, either you’ve seen it or you’ve already made up your mind to pass on James Bond’s latest escapade. If you’ve decided to pass, you’re...more

The World Is Not Enough Review
by David N. Butterworth
The most depressing thing about the depressingly pedestrian James Bond film "The World is Not Enough" is its final frame: white letters on a black background proclaiming "James Bond Will Return." Oh I certainly hope not. more
The World Is Not Enough Review
by Eugene Novikov
Why can't James Bond just say "hello" like a normal person instead of the cocky "The name is Bond, James Bond" staple? I don't think people get a kick out of it anymore. Instead of eliciting knowing nods, it produces lame chuckles. It's worn out and it...more

Once again, the plot is based on a mystery of international proportions. Oil tycoon Robert King (David Calder) is killed by a bomb planted in a suitcase of money that James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) bungee jumps of a multi-story building to retrieve. Bond...more

Welcome to the world of Bond, James Bond; where the women are beautiful, the scenery is dazzling, the bad guys are stupid, the jokes are corny, BMW hawks its newest Beamer like a maniac, and where James Bond continues to elude the AIDS virus despite his...more

CAPSULE: Pierce Brosnan's third outing as James Bond, while less flamboyant than his previous two, is the best spy story of the three. Brosnan is almost to the point where one can think of him as...more

Some movies shoot for the moon. Others wallow in the dirt. Bond films, on the other hand, have modest, simple aspirations. They are happy just to provide solid entertainment value. And by that metric, THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH, directed by 42 UP's...more

In of the trademark opening stunts of The World is Not Enough, James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) rides a rope and a prayer down like ten sheer stories, sets down lightly into the bemused sidewalk traffic, then accidentally catches the eye of a passerby. What...more

The James Bond movies are sometimes described as formulaic, but that's not quite right. A formula is more exact, more scientific. You mix so many cubic centimeters of one substance with so many milliliters of another substance and you get the same...more

It's hard to find a film franchise with more artifice than James Bond. And what ensures the survival of this species is the natural acting of Pierce Brosnan. more
The World Is Not Enough Review
by Steve Kong
I'll admit up front that I've only become a big fan of the James Bond films after I saw GoldenEye. I've seen one or two Sean Connery Bond films, one Moore, and all of the Dalton ones. Strangely, it was Dalton's Bond that truly introduced me to the...more

by Jon Popick
The world is not enough indeed. The latest James Bond flick falls as flat as Tomorrow Never Dies, with decent action sequences and bad soap opera acting. Here, 007 (Pierce Brosnan, The Thomas Crown Affair) tries to quell – get this – a terrorist with a...more
