Another huge Bond opening sequence but it's the opening credits that were awesome. The stunts and toys were big and bad and fast, but so were the puns. Cleese is brilliant, Madonna was actually OK, and Brosnan does a good job as Bond. There were massive inconsistencies but somehow these are forgiveable because it's almost expected. The movie fits right into the established line of 007 films, so just go with it. It's good Bond fun.
