The November Man (2014)

The November Man: Directed by Roger Donaldson. With Pierce Brosnan, Luke Bracey, Olga Kurylenko, Bill Smitrovich. An ex-C.I.A. operative is brought back in on a very personal mission and finds himself pitted against his former pupil in a deadly game involving high level C.I.A. officials and the Russian President-elect.

“Pierce Brosnan puts his James Bond persona to bed with this film. Iu0026#39;ve been off Brosnan in the last couple of years since Bond, though heu0026#39;s a brave actor and has tried various roles. This one puts him firmly back in the action mould. His character Devereaux could take Bond with one arm behind his back – well not perhaps not Daniel Craig but heu0026#39;d give him a run for his money. It was as gritty a performance as I have ever seen from Brosnan and ranks alongside the current Bond and Bourne for tension and is not far behind for action. His character is cold and dangerous and utterly ruthless. The plot too is clever with twists and turns and betrayals. I was engrossed from start to finish. The action is fast and graphic. Go see it. Its a fun ride.”
