Great pretitle sequence, declines quickly from there.

Most overrated film of the Brosnan era.

Michelle Yeoh rocked the show.
Teri Hatcher showed up on wrong film.
Damn! Not Another BMW!
Most incongruent evil plan ever.
Great skydiving (and it's diving, baby) scene.
Moneypenny looks the best here.
I want to learm Danish in Oxford University.

I think that the potential for this film could have been better if they had worked on it longer and gave it more publicity. I like to call it the lost Bond film. Big dissapiontment

I loved this film!
Great Second Brosnan Outing.
You could see Brosnan's growing confidence
Great one liners throughout this film.

Hi, Monkeyfoahead, and welcome to CBn. The idea behind these 007 Words Only Review threads is to review the Bond film in just that - seven words or less. :tup:

To build on somebody else's fine post:

OHMSS squished together with YOLT as a made-for-TV-movie.

Not bad, and definately Brosnan's best, no contest.

Fun, Spottiswoode keeps things moving reminiscent of Young/TB.

1. The most action-packed Bond film ever.
2. Terrific opening sequence and car park stunts.
3. 007-style music returns with David Arnold.
4. Lang's end-title song tops Crow's theme.
5. Vincent Schiavelli's Dr. Kaufman is scene-stealer.
6. Bond prevents World War III with China.
7. Megalomanical media magnate makes much mayhem.
8. Bond learns new tongue, is cunning linguist.

K. D. Lang makes Sheryl eat Crow.

Brosnan's facial expression in fighter plane: priceless.

Best cold-blooded killing since DN.

Michelle Yeoh rocks!

Screenplay felt contrived and rushed.

"They'll print anything these days."

Loved the remote-control car.

Stupid and undeveloped plot.
Worst title song
Great expectations in the first half, wasted away in the following second.
J. Price's presence wasted by a silly charachter.
An idiot henchman
Best Arnold's score
Good bike action scene
General Chang charachter undeveloped

My opinion: Worst Brosnan's era movie, one of the worst in the whole serie

The BMW looks like (poop) paint too
making war between china and Britain like US & USSR
Villain was horrible
Stamper was cardboard and spray paint
Dr. Rsomething?? was alright
GoldenEye is THE best
overall its bad. came to that conclusion when i was 6
