I thought this was a genuinely entertaining film. The action was very good, and Pierce Brosnan actually does quite well. I thought Halle Berry was also a great addition to this film. Her acting was not great, but not horrible. This is not the best Bond film in the series, but I highly enjoyed it.

Rating : 9/10

As the only Bond film I've actually got round to watching properly over the years (I've seen bits of Goldeneye, and played the N64 game through but never sat down to watch it properly), I can't really say this exactly gave me a good impression of the franchise. While Brosnan, Dench and Cleese play their characters reasonably well, the rest of the cast are generally poor, and no-one's helped by the cringeworthy dialogue. The plot, meanwhile is pretty damn forgettable too: two weeks after last seeing it, I can't actually remember the slightest detail of what happened except for the general boredom by it all.
