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.
I really enjoyed Diamonds Are Forever because of Jill St John. Jimmy Dean was a hoot too.
hated the moore girlieman Bond.
You Only Live Twice was my favorite book and least favorites of the Connery films.
He couldn't have been more wrong.
