Pierce Brosnan takes over the mantle of 007 in a very strong Bond adventure. After the control module for a Russian space weapon called Goldeneye is stolen it's up to Bond to find out who has control of system leading him to a Russian computer programmer and a long, lost double o agent.
Brosnan had been groomed for this role for about a decade before he even got a check from Eon. Everyone knew he would eventually play Bond and he didn't disppoint in this film. Goldeneye does harken back to an earlier kind of 007 movie. The rugged darkness is still there, but it hides in the shadows as some of the age old Bondisms from Moore and Connery make a return.
Goldeneye features a great villain in Sean Bean, who could have been a 007 candidate and a story that is more over the top than the Dalton years. World domination is back.
Goldeneye is a return to form for the Bond franchise with a good story and some fast paced action.
