The highest grossing Bond of all time (after inflation), this one's a bit cheesy and goofy.

It's also incredibly sexist, which kills its enjoyment value.

Although the scuba action scene certainly doesn't rank among the best Bond moments to begin with,
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

Never much cared for this one, but I haven't seen it in at least 10 years.

How so? I was too young to notice when I watched it. :lol:

And that's why I didn't like this movie. :P

The secondary girl literally says no when Bond's about to sleep with her.

That's just the worst of it.

Well, to be honest I actually haven't seen this one, but one thing I will say is that I think that movie poster looks fucking kick-ass, personally. I wish they still made epic promo posters like that.
