Review of The World Is Not Enough (1999) by Norm D — 09 May 2017
007 is who he is ... and the movies what they are. Of Brosnan's, favor shines on "Tomorrow" and Michelle Yeoh, IMO. But any film with Sophie is worth a watch, and this is no exception. It would've been good if the producers (stepson & daughter of the original producer) would've permitted a bit more departure from The Formula, as under Craig, to get more complexity out of Brosnan - and that something hotter and perhaps multi-film was permitted with Marceau.
But, probably, Brosnan's the best of the Bonds, combining Connery & Moore. Ironically, it may be that Tim Dalton came closest to Fleming's sometimes sadistic super-spy. But Dalton was of the wrong era.
Looking back tho' ... and if he was today's Bond ... :).
