Pierce Brosnan: Older, but still hot and still kicking a**

Male, old, used to have skills. That's how David Mason (Luke Bracey) describes his former mentor, Peter Deveraux (Pierce Brosnan). Ha-ha on you, David. He still does have skills and looks damn fine using them. I've always liked Brosnan, from his role as Remington Steele to James Bond, and everything in between. I like that he's avoided scandals and that he stood strong by his wife who had cancer. A man with class. Oh, I also like that's he's Irish and proud of it! 

There's enough action and spy-type intrigue in The November Man to keep my adventurous heart happy, and the plot is not so convoluted to lose me a third of the way through. One of the things I really enjoyed (slight spoiler alert), the woman Peter goes to rescue, Natalia Ulanova (Mediha Musliovic), is also a past love interest and age-appropriate. I could actually imagine the two together. Kind of unusual for Hollywood, and let's hope the trend continues.

I recommend The November Man as a great summer fun movie. Read the full synopsis here at Wikipedia.
