For me, Goldeneye is the best of the Brosnan Bonds.

I'm with you Recrewt, I though Brosnan was brilliant in his debut.

Plus, the main villain was a cigar-chomping necrophiliac who just happened to be drop dead gorgeous.

Yep - all of the above. The only thing that lets it down is a plot that doesn't hold up to more than about a second of scruitiny and  the score.  I like a bit of Eric Sera (loved Subway soundtrack) but ina James Bond movie, I like to hear the James Bond theme a bit more often!

Nightcrawler
Really good, shades of Taxi Driver & American Psycho
Never really rated Jake Gylennhal as a leading man/action hero type in the past, I think he pulls off creepy weirdo superbly in this

GoldenEye is the best Brosnan Bond movie by a country mile. The other ones he did were dreadful.

I caught a bit of it on TV recently though, and the soundtrack is alarmingly dated. It sounds like temp track someone ripped off a stock music CD.

[Colin YNWA]

Yeah surely there can't be any doubt that Goldeneye is the best of the Brozzas by, as has been said, a country mile. This run on Bond seemed to prove the law of demising returns but Goldeneye I will hold up against the best of Bond.

[Spikes]

Had a re-watch of Breaking Glass last night.
Very badly dated now, but the first half is still pretty good, and a good snapshot of the times.

[I, Cosh]

Whatever the one with Sophie Marceau was, that's the best one.

[Famous Mortimer]

Mission: Killfast

It's really really good. And strange. And the title is awesome.

The World is Not Enough - Brosnan's third Bond movie and my second favourite of his.  Not a bad movie at all but I just can't get over the disappointment of Robert Carlyle.  Perhaps its me but in the run up there was all this press about him being a proper badass who can't even feel pain.  Given that this was also the same guy out of Cracker and Trainspotting, I was not expecting the snivelling puppet that he turned out to be.

[Hawkmumbler]

Yeah, feck it, i'm gonna watch Zombie Flesh Eaters again for the perfect zombie double bill. Though it lacks any of the style of Romero's Dawn of the Dead, it's an utterly ludicrous display on how to make a movie on a shoe string budget and make it look GOOD. The production values on this movie never ceases to amaze me and the whole thing has such a unique vibe to it. I love it!

And unlike Dawn, I own the BD of ZFE and it's a superb little package.

[Tiplodocus]

I has seen Goldeneye recently which is the only reason I didn't go for that. Rosamund Pike is the only good thing about Die Another Day.

I might work through the Connery's next.

Madonna > Turner

No way, man. Madonna's Die Another Day is the worst Bond theme ever ever ever.

In every other respect you are correct, though.

[Tiplodocus]

I loathe Tina Turner. My bias does not allow me to be objective.

And Quantum of Solace by Keys and White is really the worst.

[TordelBack]

And Quantum of Solace by Keys and White is really the worst.

Certainly not a patch on Adam and Joe's contender.
