Feat. Pierce Brosnan, Robert Carlyle, Sophie Marceau, Denise Richards, Judi Dench, Robbie Coltrane

Aroview: Pierce Brosnan is back for a third time in the most cartoonish entry in many a season, with in-jokes, sexual allusions and fire-power running desperately rampant as Bond tries to make a pageant with pain-resistant anarchist baddie, Robert Carlyle.

Sophie Marceau, though, is as fine a Bond girl as ever there was, while Denise Richards makes superior ornamentation. Undistinguished at best, yet still nobody does it better… except maybe Austin Powers.
