The World is Not Enough [DVD] [1999]

Very thrilling movie.

It is a great movie

This was Pierce Brosnan's third out of four films as Agent 007 - Bond, James Bond. He did an excellent job in all four films, and should have gotten a fifth film, before turning it over. The DVD arrived in perfect condition.

The World Is Not Enough is Pierce Brosnan's third outing as 007. It's a fun, fast-moving action movie with a lot to offer. There is of course a pretty scientist, an interesting chase scene and a villainess/victim (watch the movie) who covers her behind-the-scenes activities well enough that some viewers may not pick her out as a co-conspirator until all the facts are lined up. The main bad guy in fact even has an interesting motive for his actions given that he himself is dying and will not live to see the plot come to fruition. A lot of heat has been thrown at this Bond film because of Denise Richards' wardrobe in her performance as Christmas Jones, a nuclear physicist. Her acting was fine to me but I can understand that short-shorts and a tank-top may seem strange choices in clothes for a scientist who disables nuclear warheads. However, note that the work is being done in Kazakhstan which is a country with a lot of hot, arid regions which when you add on a protective suit, equals a lot of body heat. So give the character some slack. The chase scenes involving Bond and a female assassin in the early stages of the film are un-remarkable but fun. The later chase scenes through the snowy Caucasus Mountains in Azerbaijan are much better. Who wouldn't like snowmobiles that apparently can fly? As mentioned above, the villains in this film are among the more interesting Bond foes over the years. The first main villain, Robert Carlyle's Renard, is a Soviet terrorist who has a bullet in his head that is inching deeper into his brain over time and will soon kill him. The other is an oil tycoon's daughter named Elektra King, played by Sophie Marceau, who having basically had her father assassinated, wants to destroy oil pipelines in the Middle-East to make sure a new one she is building will be the only one, thus making her ridiculously wealthy. There is more to her story but you will have to watch the movie to find out. At any rate, both characters are both interesting and fleshed out very well. Finally, Brosnan's Bond is not as silly as some of the Roger Moore outings but he is also not very close to Ian Fleming's book versions either. He quips frequently and is less serious than the Connery, Dalton or current Craig versions. Still, his take on the character is fun and fits the fast style of the film very well. The technology is borderline over-the-top in this Bond outing but in the end does not take away from the movie too much. The HD picture and sound quality are great and the extras are fun. All in all, this is a good movie. I give it four stars.
