I first saw this in the early 2k on cable tv.
Revisited it recently.
This is the twentieth in the Bond series and the fourth and final film to star Pierce Brosnan as James Bond.
This time Bond infiltrates a North Korean military base but his true identity is exposed by an unknown source. Bond is captured by North Korean soldiers and imprisoned but after fourteen months of captivity and torture, Bond is traded for a prisoner in exchange but is shocked to learn that his status as a 00 Agent has been suspended under suspicion of having leaked information under duress to the North Koreans.
This one has an action filled pre credit scene and shockingly this is the first film where Bond doesn't get to escape but is captured n tortured by a foreign power.
Some may rejoice when a sexist, misogynist dinosaur, a relic of the Cold War is tortured via scorpion venom.
This time Bond faces a hot tempered Colonel Moon and his loyal henchman Zao.
Bond also faces Gustav Graves and his bodyguard Mr. Kil.
This time Bond gets to cool off with Samantha Bond via virtual reality simulations but the real cool off is with Halle Berry n with the blonde babe Rosamund Pike way before her Gone Girl days.
