GOLDENEYE, directed by Martin Campbell, from a screenplay written by Jeffrey Caine and Bruce Feirstein (with uncredited input from Michael France & Kevin Wade) opens nationally. With a smug Pierce Brosnan onboard as the new 007, Bond 17 finds Fleming's once suave, sophisticated icon dumbed down to the abraded contours of a generic, all-purpose action hero unencumbered by the laws of physics or logic. Also starring Dean Bean, Izabella Scotupco and Judi Dench.
