We have no problem ranking it this high.- DC Punchy, serious-faced and infused with tragic romance, this winner became an immediate Bond classic.
GoldenEye director Martin Campbell returns behind the camera, and the script takes the character right back to the beginning-when Bond first earns his 007 licence-by drawing on Ian Fleming's 1953 novel of the same name. Step up, Daniel Craig, previously best known for films like Layer Cake and Munich. The Bond franchise was in need of a shot in the arm after the retirement of Pierce Brosnan and an over-reliance on wonky effects and bad gags.
