The 18th James Bond adventure was a runaway box-office success when released in 1995, thanks to the arrival of Pierce Brosnan as the fifth actor (following the departure of Timothy Dalton) to play the suave, danger-loving Agent 007. This James Bond is a bit more vulnerable and psychologically complex--and just a shade more politically correct--but he's still a formally attired playboy at heart, with a lovely Russian beauty (Izabella Scorupco) as his sexy ally against a cadre of renegade Russians bent on--what else?--global domination. There's also a seductive villainous with the suggestive name of Xenia Onatopp (Famke Janssen), and the great actress Judi Dench makes her first appearance as Bond's superior, M, who wisecracks about 007's "dinosaur" status as a globetrotting sexist. All in all, this action-packed Bond adventure provided a much-needed boost the long-running movie series, revitalizing the 007 franchise for the turn of the millennium. --Jeff Shannon

- fun
This Bond movie has just one basic flaw but utterly irritating: why should non Anglo-Saxon characters (here most are Russian) speak English among themselvels when no Anglo-Saxon is present and with an awful accent at that?
This is silly and irritating. Either you let them speak their language with subtitles or, if you think viewers will be annoyed by having to read, you let them speak plain English: otherwise one must think that non-natives alway speak in a language foreign to them just for ... Read More
Rating: - Best Bond film of 1980-2000
GoldenEye is one of the better runs in the infamous James Bond franchise for many reasons.To start off, this is one of the few 007 adventures combining camp, humor, and gritty realism all in one while still providing the amazing set-pieces you would have come to expect from the original Bond films.This is a new flavor for James Bond, yet has enough home touches that it feels right at home in the series.
Being the 17th entry in the never-ending series revolving around the British ... Read More

- Satisfying
It's great Bond movie with an interesting opening.The reason I like this movie is it's music, action, and ending.I didn't like how there were so many deaths though.
Rating: - Wow, What An Opening!
Perhaps the best part of this 130-minute film is the first 10.5 minutes. It's so spectacular that the rest of the film almost becomes a letdown.
When I first saw this a dozen years ago, I thought that opening action scene, contained the most outrageous stunt I had seen to that point in film. It had James Bond falling off a cliff and catching up in mid-flight to a falling airplane, landing in the cockpit and righting the plane!It was, of course, ridiculous, but great fun to watch.
