I thought Christmas only comes once a year.

Some consider Goldeneye as the only Brosnan film worthy of acclaim. Others felt that The World is not Enough was his best film. And there are a few who are willing to give that honor to this film.

While Brosnan and Sophie Marceau light up the film, there are some that think that he is really the supporting actor here. And there are many who believe that Brosnan and Denise Richards make a lousy couple.

Marceau stands out as a romantic actress, not an action hero. She was Princess Isabelle in Braveheart and she shines in the French films La Fidélité and Chouans!. So, it is natural that Bond would fall in love with her - who wouldn't? Now Denise Richards (Christmas Jones) is the action star, with credential from Wild Things to prove it. Hoever, she is compared to Jill St. John and Tanya Roberts as one of the worst actresses ever to appear in Bond films.

The pre-credit sequence is probably the best ever done. The World is Not Enough theme song done by Garbage is outstanding.

Bottom Line: there is no bad Brosnan film.
