Detonator II: Night Watch (1995 TV Movie)
BRILLIANT PRE-BOND ADVENTURE FOR BROSNAN
27 February 2002
Warning: Spoilers
This film was made before Pierce Brosnan made his debut as Bond and it's a great film.

For starters, anything with the beautiful Alexandra Paul in is bound to be great. But there's an interesting storyline and some great action scenes in here.

(POSSIBLE SPOILERS AHEAD) Alexandra Paul is a tough and resourceful character who certainly doesn't need a man to help her out. She has some great scenes where she chases a man in a boat whilst she is on foot. And when the bad guys snatch her and drag her into their car she even manages to escape them.

Pierce Brosnan also gets some great scenes including a vicious fight with a thug on a small boat.

The villains in this film may not be the most memorable villains ever but there's some good scenes with them in.

I do have one criticism about the film-William Devane gets a rather limited role for an actor of his talents.

I strongly recommend this film. I know Pierce Brosnan will be busy for the next couple of years filming Bond movies but I wouldn't mind seeing him and Alexandra Paul team up again sometime.
