  • Despite opening on the same day as TITANIC, Pierce Brosnan's second outing as James Bond 007, TOMORROW NEVER DIES, was a big box office hit. A third Brosnan Bond, THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH, was put immediately into production, resulting in yet another controversial instalment that has its defenders and critics. A more serious Bond outing, this one has a female villain (Sophie Marceau's Electra King), Denise Richards as the Bond girl, and Robert Carlyle, and while fans generally consider it a cut above what was to come (DIE ANOTHER DAY), its reputation has been sullied in recent years. Check out this latest instalment of James Bond Revisited and unpack THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH!

      Same here : its the only one of the Brosnan era of 007 movies that has "merit" : where Die Another Day had CGI, shootouts and an invisible Aston Martin Vanquish et cetera and it's predecessors with unnecessary humour, along with backstories that add little to the plot, this one made a huge difference.
      I'll bypass Denise Richards/Christmas Jones (she's only part of a narrative) the most powerful performances come from Brosnan, Judi Dench, Robbie Coltrane, Sophie Marceau, Desmond Llewelyn and Robert Carlyle et cetera - this is good as it gets!.

      When I heard Desmond Llewelyn had died I remember thinking, well he was old. Then it turned out he died in a car crash. I remember the newspapers suggesting that he liked gadgets and fast cars, which was why he crashed, but it was complete garbage. It was just unfortunate.
      Edit: He died a few months after the film came out, driving to a book signing.

      Yeah, and tragically ironic that the guy who’s fame was based upon being the guy who supplied Bond with his awesome cars that he would proceed to smash up, always to Q’s vocal chagrine, he then died in a car crash . . . No one would have seen that coming, and it was like he was robbed of his retirement. All of the fascinating interviews we would have gotten from him, lost to us, is one thing. But his opportunity to bask in the glory of his success was stolen from him, his family and his many, many fans. A terrible tragedy. ✌️👍

      Yes, it's also a great scene in that he just offs her. I wish they'd been a bit braver with Bond over the years and given him some more callous scenes. Apart from this, there's the one in For Your Eyes Only where he kicks the guys car off the cliff. There's the "You've had your six" scene in Dr No, and Craig had a similar one at the beginning of Casino Royale. Not too many others, unfortunately.

    Many points and issues with the film aside, specifically in regards to Renard the biggest issue for me is that they gave him a great setup, perfectly fitting of a memorable Bond villain, but did nothing with it. His 'superhuman' resistance plays absolutely no role at all in the final fight or any confrontation whatsoever, making him no different than any regular villain or thug before.

    Renard is definitely the henchman. People say he’s the villain coz he’s the big threat at the end, but there’s been a lot of final boss fights with henchmen instead of the main villain. Live and Let Die, Spy Who Loved Me, debatably Living Daylights and Tomorrow Never Dies all end with an attack from the henchmen that feels way bigger than the fights with the main villain, and Diamonds are Forever and Man With The Golden Gun also have henchmen as the last enemies standing.

    This 007 movie holds a very special place in my heart. It had a lot of 'firsts' for me as a youngster. It was the first James Bond movie I saw at my local Cinema with my first date which ended with a kiss at the young ladies' doorstep, which made me feel like Bond!
    It was also the very first DVD I ever witnessed in my life, purely by chance at a Dixons entertainment store. And I never forgot the quality. It was the boat chase and I was outstanded that digital technology was that advanced and that widescreen TVs were becoming so popular.
    I agree, the film really does feel a bit long and I enjoyed it much more when it first came out. It still has some great moments, excellent music cues and Denise Richards' performance never bothered me. Christmas wasn't a central character, merely to help Bond really.
    I thought Robert Carlyle's performance was weak even when I first saw the film. I remember seeing him in Cracker (also with Robbie Coltrane) and he really was terrifying. Here, he seemed somewhat restricted.
    I still enjoy the film and this was a great revisit. 👍⭐👏

I was never interested in the Bond franchise until Daniel Craig came along--my dad made me sit through a couple Connery movies when I was young and I didn't think much of them--but your videos have prompted me to go back and watch my way through the prior Bond eras. And while Daniel Craig will likely always be my favorite Bond, it's been fun to learn about the franchise's history.

    The biggest thing that could have improved this movie is completely removing the Christmas Jones character. Also you have some of the film wrong. Elektra cut her own ear off. She had already convinced Renard to turn to her side. He was in fact a henchman with Electra being the main villian.

    Some facts I pulled off the wiki about elektra king so In the novelisation, Elektra does not die immediately after she's shot by Bond. Instead, as she lies dying on the bed, she begins to sing a lullaby.
    The film's original ending had Elektra survive her gunshot wound and was recovering in hospital, where she was visited by Bond. The ending was changed because it was considered too downbeat.

Its intresting seeing the main villan as a woman. When I first saw it I thought Renard was the villan but on subsequent viewings it seems undeniable to me that Electra is. Kinda like how Carver is the main villain in TND despite not bring apart of the last fight.

    TWINE has always been my favorite Pierce Brosnan "Bond Film". I mean sure it can seem a little "dated" compared to the more recent "Bond Films" like Daniel Craig's "Casino Royale (remake)". Which is also amazing!
    But ​I also agree with other people on here, I think it's an "underrated" Pierce Brosnan "James Bond" film.
    Also "Elektra King" is probably one of my top favorite or the favorite James Bond characters (well besides James Bond). I must think she was so interesting, and I loved her clothes!
