GoldenEye, directed by Martin Campbell and written by Kevin Wade and Jeffrey Caine, follows James Bond in a mission to recover a powerful secret weapon.
A Russian general escapes with a highly advanced prototype helicopter, aided by a woman named Xenia. Soon afterward, General Ourumov and Xenia use the helicopter to raid a secret radar base in Russia, killing everyone there and taking control of a top-secret weapon called GoldenEye.
Bond is assigned to stop the general, seize the weapon and discover who is behind the operation. He receives help from Natalya, a computer programmer who is the only survivor of the radar-base attack.
Bond’s opponent is Alec Trevelyan, a former MI5 agent who has taken the weapon to seek revenge against the country that turned its back on him. The film stars Pierce Brosnan, Sean Bean and Izabella Scorupco. Its IMDb rating is 6.3 out of 10.
