While Goldeneye is better remembered for the videogame it spun off than the movie itself it remains Pierce Brosnan’s strongest outing and a very entertaining film in its own right.
The films have virtually nothing to do with each other in tone and are not strong enough to stand on their own. They do remind me of Zardoz. A film to show your jaded friends who think they have seen everything.
Truth be told these people would be miserable no matter what class they were in and like a trapped guest I was looking to leave Abigail’s Party as soon as I could.
After you watch the first twenty minutes, you will say to yourself hey this is cool. Do yourself a favor and turn off the TV. It is the only way to preserve the feeling.
