THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH (1999) - ♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Michael Apted

Written by - Neal Purvis, Robert Wade, Bruce Feirstein (based on the characters by Ian Fleming)

Starring - Pierce Brosnan, Sophie Marceau, Robert Carlyle

"The Bond franchise ends the nineties with a bang, in this special effect extravaganza where the women are the evil, and most surprisingly believable, criminal masterminds and the bond villain is a man who cannot feel pain because of a bullet lodged in his brain. With all the potential elements to make this a memorable episode in the franchise – including a stunning Sophie Marceau - this film is fun and exciting though perhaps not as iconic as it might have been."
