My rating: 7.5/10
Will I watch it again? Yes.
I'm not a big fan of the Brosnan Bond pictures. I like him OK in the role (he was too flippant but he could have been a great Bond if it weren't for that) except the films they put him in weren't that good. To the point, I love Brosnan when he plays close to the anti-Bond kind of like what he did in this one and more so in the excellent THE TAILOR OF PANAMA (2001). I like his ambiguity in this picture. I wasn't quite sure if he meant what he said some of the time. Greg Kinnear was a lot of fun, too. Loved the stache. The two of these guys worked well together and the ending wraps up nicely. I'll definitely watch this one again. I've got to give PANAMA another go, too. Great flicks, both of them.
