In the second outing of Pierce Brosnan as 007 we see him battling an insane media mogul (hmm..who was that modelled on I wonder?). The deliciously evil Jonathon Price as Elliot Carver (the media mogul) is setting up international incidents putting superpower vs. superpower. As a fabulous twist on the Cold War scenario we now have stiff upper-lipped Brits dallying with the inscrutable Chinese.
From the first fifteen minute stunning title introduction (worth the DVD price alone), we have some great set piece martial arts action with Michelle Yeoh as Wai Lin, Bond’s Chinese counterpart (she definitely gives Brosnan a run and a kick for his money!), Gotz Otto as Stamper (well named) as Carver’s henchman to Teri Hatcher as Paris Carver (Yes Elliot’s wife) who just happened to be a certain 007’s past love interest. Brosnan in the scenes with Hatcher shows how much he has added to the character of Bond, with a real passion, empathy and love.
The movie never lets up in its one hour and fifty four minutes and director Roger Spottiswoode and his top team have produced a superb addition to the James Bond movie collection-Go buy and you also gets lots of excellent extras-storyboards, two extra commentaries,documentary,special fx reel,isolated music track, music vids, trailers and gadgets!!
