Some things I liked some I did not.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Brosnan was the first Bond I saw, and this is my favorite movie with him as Bond and among the top 3 Bond movies ever. It has everything that makes Bond great: action, women, espionage, humor, gadgets and a great villain!

By the early 1990s, James Bond had been missing off the big screen since 1989's LICENCE TO KILL (which I reviewed in an early retrospective), due to legal difficulties and with films such as DIE HARD and TRUE LIES, many thought that 007 was a relic of the past, however in 1994 when it was announced that Timothy Dalton had left the role of 007 after two films, they announced the new Bond in the form of Pierce Brosnan and hype culminated into 1995's Goldeneye.The story has James Bond investigating the theft of a EMP satellite and the deaths of a Russian tech facility by a Russian crime syndicate by the codename 'Janus', teaming up with lone survivor Natalya Simonova (Played by the excellent Isabella Scorupco) He learns that the leader is presumed deceased MI6 agent Alec Trevelyan (played with relish by Sean Bean) Bond must destroy the satellite whilst trying to escape the thighs of the psychotic Xenia Onatopp (X Men's Famke Jansen)Pierce Brosnan makes a great 007, combining the humour of Roger Moore, the dryness of Connery and the vulnerability of Lazenby and Dalton, he has the right blend for the role.However the films main weakness is its infamous score composed by Eric Serra, which drives to far from the orchestral format of John Barry's score and relies on 90s synthesizers, the score is decent, Although the less said about the end credits song 'The Experience Of Love',the better Tina Turner sings the films theme song, the song is catchy and has a Shirley Bassey vibe, but is decent at best.Goldeneye brought Bond into the 1990s and spawned three more follow ups with Brosnan, as well as a fantastic game for the N64, All in all, Goldeneye is not only my favourite James Bond film, but one of my all time favourite standalone action films.

Though there was nothing wrong with them the Timothy Dalton Bond films never really set the world alight, and with other films raising the bar for the genre, there was perhaps a feeling in 1995 that the Bond franchise had run out of steam.Thankfully Pierce Brosnan came in to steady the ship with this solid Bond film that reminded everyone what was good about the series, whilst also being a sort of 'best of' Bond, in terms of having qualities of those who had worn the famous tuxedo previously.It's a good film, full of big set pieces, and some nice quips from 007, but it's not likely to win in any 'best of the series' polls.

This is the best James Bond film ever made and stands tall above all the others. The bullets don't stop in this awesome ride of Bond fun! The characters are strong and the acting is excellent. Both the male and female caters are well cast, and has once of the best Bond villains ever. The ending is amazing! This is the best in the whole series! I give Goldeneye a 7/10
