The World Is Not Enough (DVD) Reviews

I must say that I'm a true James Bond fan. I seen every film about him, most of them even several time. And for a true Bond fan is nothing more disturbing than seeing how brainless and amateur screenwriters are destroying the Bond franchise, characters, story line and legacy. And directors that support this. And it's all started with this one - ...  Read the complete review

Glamour is increasing in the Bond productions, with the special effects and gadgetry associated with Bond, the famous Bond girls being portrayed by models or already well known actresses who are also treated as sex symbols, and Bond himself, here played by Pierce Brosnan for the third time. The new wave of the Bond team has by now set itself into ...  Read the complete review

OK, I'l say it:The World Is Not Enough (TWINE) is probably not the best Bond movie in the collection. But it is certainly not the worst. Number 19 in the series is markedly cliched in parts; the opening sequences are becoming more extravagant, Bond is starting to bed 3 women per outing with alarming consistency, and the opportune use of ...  Read the complete review

The World Is Not Enough? Now I am as big a bond fan as the next average Joe, but it has come to my attention that the whole series is going down the bog some time soon, what with the complete heap of shash that was Tomorrow Never Dies being followed up by an even more atrocious, half-arsed gleb of a sequel. The reasons for this film being ...  Read the complete review

Not a bad choice when you're in the mood to turn your brain off and indulge in the usual, totally implausible James Bond spy fantasy. Okay, you know what you're going to get with a newer Bond film. Here's my take on what worked and didn't: The boat chase and ski chase scenes are expertly done and work. Sophie Marceau's ...  Read the complete review

The World is Not Enough is made in the true spirit of the series with all the gadgets, action and women you could possibly want. It follows the trend of the bond films of late and is the biggest and best one yet. I can’t wait till 2002 when Bond will return. The title of the movie comes from Ian Flemings On Her Majesty’s Secret Service ...  Read the complete review

I think its time 007 was retired after watching the same old stuff in the last three films. Ethan Hawk is the man now and MI2 are going to gobble up the American audience and franchise the way it’s going. Pierce Brosnan is pretty cute but way too short, although just low enough to tie Connerys boots. I still enjoyed the movie but ...  Read the complete review

James Bond is a cultural icon. Everyone knows the catchphrases "Bond, James Bond," and "shaken, not stirred" - plain evidence of the character's popularity. There have already been 19 Bond films over the past four decades before this one. Why does anyone see a Bond film? Mainly for the nifty gadgets, the stunts and ...  Read the complete review
