I did not like it. I call it "Browneye".

1. Bad script 2. Bad overacting 3. Bad Soundtrack 4. Ripoff of DAF 5. Turned Bond series into a comic book.

Goldeneye lost me after the tank chase which I liked very much. The main turnoff was this super elaborate techno facility in Cuba.

Sorry to disagree, but Golden Eye is right up there with Thunderball as my Bond favs.

I liked it at the time and it was probably the best Brosnan film but I agree it’s not one I watch repeatedly. I am a big Bond fan. My favorites are:

From Russia With Love
Goldfinger
On Her Majesty’s Secret Service
The Spy Who Loved Me
For Your Eyes Only
The Living Daylights
Casino Royale (the new one)

Like I said, I am a Bond afficianado (Just saw OHMSS on the big screen at MoMA last night) and can find something to enjoy in all the films but I must say Die Another Day is without a doubt my least favored. I also think You Only Live Twice and Diamonds Are Forever and Live and Let Die were missed opportunities.

Of Brosnan's 007 movies, I liked The World is Not Enough the best. The theme song performed by Garbage was also one of the best.

Comic book? Yes. Sometimes I like to read a comic book.

Stupid tank scene? Yup. But I loved it!

The Craig Bonds turn me off. Too graphic for one. Depressing...not so much escapism/fun.

Skyfall theme called a Bond theme for the ages. It’s OK but not outstanding for me. I’d rather hear You Only Live Twice.

It is merely my opinion but Pierce Brosnan is the worst Bond ever. A terrible actor whose range of emotion comes in three variations 1. plastic 2. dour 3. Botox Overdose

Not really a fan of Brosnan found him annoying but i agree with what the guy wrote.
First time i saw Goldeneye i enjoyed it but as he made more movies found them annoying and soured on Goldeneye.

How do you reach the conclusion that it is a ripoff of DAF only thing they have in common is the satellite that fires lasers and that happens again in Die another Day.

Sean Connery for me WAS James Bond. Maybe if Connery hadn’t been 007 at the beginning, I could entertain others playing the role. But the fact is Connery DID start the series, and all of the other 007’s paled in comparison.

I am suffering from withdrawal.
The rerun of all of the Bond movies on my G-Sat has either ended or hit a lull.
I have not seen one in the last week.
