Common ground: fight
The difference: Reviewed a good deal more coolly

Both are working the same pair: spy, secret agent
The difference: 23 years apart, and the 1990s show

Both land momentum and tension at once

Action with a pulse of momentum, in both cases

Tense thriller, and it commits to that

Both lean on momentum more than on action

Thriller built on tension, twice over

Both know what they want from action

The thriller is handled with the same confidence

Both keep coming back to the same thing: secret agent
The difference: Sits closer to drama than Diamonds Are Forever does

Both are built on the same subject: smuggling (contraband)
The difference: None of the tension Diamonds Are Forever is built on

Both working the same action territory
