About
If you want classic 007 thrills with big stunts and a mix of humor and grit, GoldenEye is a great pick; Not for you if you prefer lighter, more grounded spy stories like Jason Bourne or you dislike older electronic music and dated tech.
Pros: high-energy spy action; strong lead chemistry; memorable set pieces | Cons: dated-looking tech; uneven music choices; some plot complexity
