for over half a decade, GoldenEye remains Pierce Brosnan's finest moment as Britain's most famous secret agent.The plot? This one involves the Russian mafia, a rogue agent and a powerful satellite, although realistically it's the standard 007 formula at work. Thus, there's gadgets, girls and plenty of action, with the plot trying to squeeze in where there's room.There are several reasons though why GoldenEye works so well. Firstly, it successfully ushered in a new cast, with Judi Dench's M, Samantha Bond's Moneypenny and Robbie Coltrane's Valentin Zukovsky all marking their 007 movie debut. Then, the baddies are strong, although Sean Bean's ruthless 006 is overshadowed by Famke Janssen's career-making performance as Xenia Onatopp. And then there's that vital 007 ingredient--the action. From a stunning pre-credits sequence, which is arguably the film's highlight, through to several high-tempo action moments throughout the rest of the film, it's highly enjoyable stuff, and impossible to resist.Finally, there's Brosnan. Arguably the most successful Bond since Sean Connery defined the role, his laid back, hard-edged charm serves him well, and he never looked more comfortable as 007 as he does in his maiden outing.In short, GoldenEye is not only a terrific Bond movie, it's a strong action movie full stop. --Jon Foster

Ultimate Bond films Review ofThe JamesBondCollection (Wide Screen) (BoxSet)by
the_enlightened_one
Advantages: Fantastic films Disadvantages: Somewhere to store it
...The JamesBondCollection is one of the best DVD boxsets ever to be published.
It is the ultimate dedicate to Ian Fleming's and of course his most famous character, JamesBond.
Also you get a very interesting bonus disc, containing the following: original documentaries, Behind-the-scenes footage, deleted scenes, theatrical trailers and interactive menus concerning all the movies, as well as meet the cast, theatrical trailer, and teaser trailer, concerning JamesBond's latest movie Dieanotherday, combined with a Nightfire game trailer, which is the latest video game concerning the original movies!
This is a must-have for every JamesBond fan.
Buy it; it's well worth it!
I got this at half price about a year ago for Christmas. To be honest it has it good films and not so good films. I'm a Sean Connery fan so I like most of his...

Advantages: All 20 movies from the start to end of brosnan Disadvantages: none
...Since i was a child i have been introduced to the well known character of JamesBond. From Sean Connery through Timothy Dalton, Roger Moore, Pierce Brosnan and the most recent being Daniel Craig. This collection was a must for me as it has all films up to current except the most recent Casino Royale. This collection consists of 20 ultimate edition films which have been digitally restored from their original quality also including a bonus disc.
The boxset starts with:
Dr No.(Sean Connery)1962
JamesBond goes investigating looking for the killer of a double 0, but on his trail to Jamaica he uncovers something even bigger. With the help of Felix Leiter and Honey Rider they embark to stop the evil scientist genius who is using energy waves to affect US space launches.
From Russia With Love(Sean Connery)1963
Bond is sent to look...
