VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Ceticultsot Beautiful, moving film.
Limerculer A waste of 90 minutes of my life
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
mattkratz This is your typical James Bond movie with his spying on Russia and interacting with his superiors and lots of gorgeous girls (this time, though, they actually added some political correctness in the dialogue!), breathtaking and improbable stunts, spy devices,and great chases. Piece Brosnan was impressive in his first outing as Bond, and everything about this movie was first rate. Exciting with a good plot too! He was after a renegade spy satelite. If you are a Bond fan, you will love this movie. *** out of ****
Alex Walker By the early 1990s, James Bond had been missing off the big screen since 1989's LICENCE TO KILL (which I reviewed in an early retrospective), due to legal difficulties and with films such as DIE HARD and TRUE LIES, many thought that 007 was a relic of the past, however in 1994 when it was announced that Timothy Dalton had left the role of 007 after two films, they announced the new Bond in the form of Pierce Brosnan and hype culminated into 1995's Goldeneye.The story has James Bond investigating the theft of a EMP satellite and the deaths of a Russian tech facility by a Russian crime syndicate by the codename 'Janus', teaming up with lone survivor Natalya Simonova (Played by the excellent Isabella Scorupco) He learns that the leader is presumed deceased MI6 agent Alec Trevelyan (played with relish by Sean Bean) Bond must destroy the satellite whilst trying to escape the thighs of the psychotic Xenia Onatopp (X Men's Famke Jansen)Pierce Brosnan makes a great 007, combining the humour of Roger Moore, the dryness of Connery and the vulnerability of Lazenby and Dalton, he has the right blend for the role.However the films main weakness is its infamous score composed by Eric Serra, which drives to far from the orchestral format of John Barry's score and relies on 90s synthesizers, the score is decent, Although the less said about the end credits song 'The Experience Of Love',the better Tina Turner sings the films theme song, the song is catchy and has a Shirley Bassey vibe, but is decent at best.Goldeneye brought Bond into the 1990s and spawned three more follow ups with Brosnan, as well as a fantastic game for the N64, All in all, Goldeneye is not only my favourite James Bond film, but one of my all time favourite standalone action films.
ivo-cobra8 GoldenEye (1995) is my number 1 personal favorite movie of all time! James Bond 007 action film the best one that was ever made. In my opinion it is the best one I love this movie to death! I grew up watching it as a child and Pierce Brosnan is my number 1 favorite James Bond. GoldenEye is the first film to star Pierce Brosnan as the fictional MI6 officer James Bond. The film was directed by Martin Campbell and is the first in the series not to take story elements from the works of novelist Ian Fleming.I'm a hard-core James Bond fan. I make no apologies for believing that Pierce Brosnan is the closest thing we've seen to IAN FLEMING's James Bond. The reason because it is my favorite it is because I feel it is just action, action , action and more action. I never feel bored with it, or it is too over long like some Bond movies are it is fast paced, entertaining and hard core action. The plot is simply and the story never get's bored. It is a beautiful movie, with beautiful direction from Martin Campbell. The stunts are completely insane in scale in this movie and really dangerous.Music score is by Éric Serra, the title song is GoldenEye performed by Tina Turner. GoldenEye was released in 1995 after a six-year hiatus in the series caused by legal disputes, during which Timothy Dalton resigned from the role of James Bond and was replaced by Pierce Brosnan. M was also recast, with actress Judi Dench becoming the first woman to portray the character, replacing Robert Brown. The role of Miss Moneypenny was also recast, with Caroline Bliss being replaced by Samantha Bond: Desmond Llewelyn was the only actor to reprise his role, as Q. GoldenEye was the first Bond film made after the dissolution of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War, which provided a background for the plot.Style and sophistication are in abundance - - "The name's Bond. James Bond." Goldeneye's female characters are honestly beautiful with particular techniques. The bad one is Xenia Onatopp (Famke Janssen), an ex-Soviet fighter pilot who tranquilly smokes big cigars and knocks off her victims with her 'killer thighs.' In one scene, she challenges Bond's legendary Aston Martin DB5 to a wild road race outside Monte Carlo with her red Ferrari: in another she was so smart that she snatches a top-secret helicopter from under the noses of the French navy. Izabella Scorupco is a great and the finest Bond girl, the irresistible Natalya Simonova (Izabella Scorupco) who 'tastes like strawberries.' Natalya possesses all the technical ability to neutralize Janus' scheme or to destroy all computer records with the GoldenEye As one who survived a mass murder, this lovely beauty is suddenly a marked woman.James Bond investigates the theft of the control disk for the GoldenEye satellite. His investigation leads to an organization of arms dealers Janus and the reappearance of someone from Bond's past. James Bond must deal with betrayal of his old friend Alec Trevelyan (006) gone rogue, from using a satellite GoldenEye against London to cause a global financial meltdownWhy I also love this movie to death beside the action is because of the great villains who created evil characters. Such as: Sean Bean as Alec Trevelyan (006), Famke Janssen as Xenia Onatopp: A Georgian lust murderer, Gottfried John as General Arkady Grigorovich Ourumov and Alan Cumming as Boris Grishenko: A computer programmer.It was filmed in beautiful locations in Puerto Rico, Russia, England, UK and in the France.The movie has a lot of insane hard-core action (I counted TEN all-star ones during my last viewing), The stunts are completely insane in scale (bungee jumping in - Arkangel Chemical Weapons Facility a stunt man performed that stunt in the opening scene.) Bond with a motorcycle jumps on a plane and catches it. Bond drives a tank in Russia for the first time and he demolishes even police cars that was excellent scene. Bond a stuntman jumps out of the window in Russia. Alec Trevelyan's train depot - exploding train. The epic climatic fight on the end of the movie between Bond and Trevelyan in his secret Goldeneye satellite control dish in Cuba in which Bond drops Trevelyan out of dish beautiful and really crazy stunt performance.I love the soundtracks in this movie: Goldeneye by Tina Turner and The Experience of Love by Éric Serra. I just love everything about this movie from the actions, to the heroes, to the villains from acting everything abut this movie I just love so much.GoldenEye (1995) is the seventeenth spy film in the James Bond series to be produced by Eon Productions, and the first to star Pierce Brosnan as the fictional MI6 officer James Bond. The film was directed by Martin Campbell and is the first in the series not to take story elements from the works of novelist Ian Fleming.10/10 my favorite James Bond number 1 movie. This film is amazing Totally mind-blowing I love it.
merem1 This is a strong James Bond 007 movie. A really entertaining film. Pierce Brosnan is a great actor who is awesome as 007. Sean Bean is a great villain. The female characters are strong and do a good job in their roles. The action sequences are amazing. I have always liked the story of the film, it was interesting.
