My Thoughts:
I decided to watch this one with Brittany today.  It is a little bitter-sweet for me though. As this was one of Dawn's (my late wife) favorite films and we watched it together countless times. So in one way it brought my thoughts to Dawn which for the most part is happy memories now... but I still get a little sad that she is no longer with us. Especially right now with Britt getting ready to leave for college. But another thought that comes to me... I am thrilled I got to share this film with my daughter as well. I always enjoyed this movie as well and it looked great on Blu-ray. I think the film held up rather well over the years. I can say I definitely enjoyed revisiting this film. A true classic.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5

OverviewThe effortlessly suave and sophisticated Pierce Brosnan makes his acclaimed debut as Agent 007 in this rip-roaring espionage thriller featuring the most eye-popping opening sequence yet! When an MI6 agent (Sean Bean) turns rogue and plans world domination with a terrifying satellite-borne weapon, Bond must pursue his former ally to Cuba, Monte Carlo, Switzerland and even Russia, all whilst dodging a sexy, deadly femme fatale (Famke Janssen) who will stop at nothing to put the 'squeeze' on the intrepid spy!

Plot:
Eureka takes place in a high tech fictional community of the same name, located in the U.S. state of Oregon (Washington in the pilot) and inhabited entirely by brilliant scientists working on new scientific advances. The town is operated by a corporation called Global Dynamics (GD), that is overseen by the United States Department of Defense. The town's existence and location are closely guarded secrets.

U.S. Marshal Jack Carter stumbles upon Eureka while transporting a fugitive prisoner (his own rebellious teenage daughter Zoe) back to her mother's home in Los Angeles. When a faulty experiment cripples the sheriff of Eureka, Carter finds himself quickly chosen to fill the vacancy. Despite not being a genius like most members of the town, Jack Carter demonstrates a remarkable ability to connect to others, keen and practical insights, and a dedication to preserving the safety of Eureka.
