Although the video game is lots of fun to play, this Bond movie was never one of my favorites. I feel like they tried to modernize the franchise with all this tech jargon and, back then, I just got confused. I can understand the whole Sean Bean evil-doings better now that I'm older, but by now, most of their equipment's obsolete.
Alan Cumming is a highlight of the movie -- perfect as the goofy techie Russian with a bit of an attitude. And Sean Bean's a pretty good bad guy, bad enough that I didn't sit there thinking about Lord of the Rings the whole time, so that's good!
Anyway, this one's not really a favorite. It's got some great action scenes, lots of explosions, and plenty of Bronsan-ized Bond to go around.
