Pierce Brosnan's Fisticuffs

ClarkDevlin

As much as I love Brosnan's films, he indeed lost the ball in handling himself in physical fistfights post-GoldenEye. I mean... You see how tough he was handling the yacht guard, beating up Ourumov and his minion soldiers before acquiring an AK rifle, his clash with Trevelyan in the end, all these were tremendous. Where did we really go after that? I can't really forgive that struggle with the guards in the printing house in Tomorrow Never Dies, or his fight with Renard in The World Is Not Enough. It's true he wasn't changed in Die Another Day, but the editing and the scene's circumstances (i.e. Lasers all around the room, plane's broken window sucking out the air and destabilizing the gravity as such) helped him there.

What were they thinking really?
