The World Is Not Enough is getting a 6 from me.

The first Bond I saw in the cinema IIRC. I've always enjoyed it, although it's middle of the road in the grand scheme of things. Sophie Marceau does well as the seductive, two faced Elektra and Robert Carlyle convinces as the unhinged Renard. Brosnan is as smooth and stylish as ever, whilst Robbie Coltrane and Judi Dench both put in good shifts as well. I often see the casting of Denise Richards criticised and, well, she's not great, but not awful either. The plot is serviceable, and there's some nice locations and stunts as you'd expect, but I did find myself glancing at the clock once or twice on this run through. Perhaps I've seen it too many times? It did feel a little overlong - 5-10 mins shorter would've made a difference I think. Theme song was quite forgettable too.
