  • 2 stars out of 5

    After overseeing Roger Moore?s final James Bond appearances and Timothy Dalton?s only two 007 contributions, the work all but dried up for John Glen in the 1990s. The Point Men finds him back in the director?s chair, but even he can?t bring much fizz to this tame action thriller. Christopher Lambert is the disgraced Israeli secret agent called back into action when members of his old team start getting bumped off by an old adversary, terrorist Vincent Regan. Former Bond girl Maryam D?Abo pops up in a supporting role, although the real eye-opener in the cast is the presence of New Zealand actress Kerry Fox, who's best known for her art house roles in films such as An Angel at My Table and Intimacy.

    loud soundtrack

    It was great to see so many british actors, but the film was spoilt by the heavy use of background music. Could not hear the dialogue properly.

    not good enough
