TomorrowNever Dies (1997) is the 18th Bond film, and the second starring Pierce Brosnan as James Bond. Brosnan's first outing as Bond in Goldeneye in 1995 was a great success following a 6 year gap since Timothy Dalton's Bond in Licence to Kill in1989. Goldeneye bridged the gap following the end of the Cold War and the reduction of Soviet villains for Bond, and paved the way for a more modern Bond dealing with more topical issues, as we see here in TomorrowNever Dies.

Advantages: Good for kids Disadvantages: A bit dated
The Tomorrow People.
I remembered the earlier shows, probably from 1973 when it first aired through to 1979 when it initially ended. Watching it again on DVD was very, very enjoyable
and to be honest quite refreshing. It was at the time an imaginative program and held a 70's quaintness.
Remembered nothing of the second incarnation of the show, 1992 - 1995 and again nothing of the third reinvented show from 2001 - 2007.
You follow some rare talented humans as they 'Break out' and change from normal humans to the next stage in human evolution. They have abilities such as telepathy, telekinesis, and teleportation.
They have adventures inventing new technologies and fighting evil villains on this planet and from other galaxies.
There are a few surprises along the way.
The 1973 - 1979 Series

Advantages: a real feel good film with excellent songs and great acting Disadvantages: a bit of a tear-jerker and at nearly 3 hours it's quite lengthy to sit through
The film carries the tagline: "A Story Of A Lifetime.......In A Heartbeat".
I watched Kal Ho Na Ho (If TomorrowNeverComes) for the first time recently and though it was released some time ago I felt I had to review it as I really enjoyed the film (even though it was a real weepie in some parts). Be warned - it's about 3 hours long, so you might want to watch it in 2 separate sittings!
