great pre-bond brosnan, 12 April 2003
Author: liammurphy1 from United Kingdom

This is the best pre-bond Brosnan movie (ok so that's not saying much) but this is relly enjoyable if you leave your brain at the door and get used to brosnan's dodgy american accent.

a must see for all Brosnan & tounge in cheek action fans.

rating 8/10 for originality 9/10 for action 6/10 for script and direction (could have been better)
