Frank 10/26/2022 Ingenius throughout. See more Matt C Dec 8 This film has it all, the good, the bad, and the ugly. It went over the top and kept going, to such extremes you just have to go along and make fun of it if that helps soothe the pain. Bond and Jinx make a great if corny pair. The villian is, to me, actually somewhat interesting, and a good match for our hero. Die Another Day incorporates virtually every Bond trope and dials it up to 11. It's almost a parody, and probably the reason why they went in a new direction after this. But it's better than Tomorrow Never Dies and at least as good as The World Is Not Enough. Forget the critics. This wasn't made for them. This is the Sharknado of the Bond franchise, love it, hate it, or love to hate it. See more Richard D Dec 2 This classic James Bond romp is criminally underrated. It is tremendously entertaining and enjoyable to watch. Pierce Brosnan nails James Bond to perfection. He fits the role like a glove. Toby Stephens chews the scenery delightfully as tthe main villain, and Rosamund Pike is a smoking hot femme fatale. John Cleese brings some classic British humour pedigree. 5/5 See more Kyrann M Nov 16 I have been binge watching all the 007 movies up till this movie and I must say Pierce Brosnan is the best James Bond. I love Sean Connery, Rodger Moore, and Timothy Dalton but Pierce Brosnan he embodied Bond, James Bond...and the wonderful, beautiful, and sexy actress Hallie Berry made this an amazing movie. Even though I am an African American woman I honestly feel 007 should always be a white foreign man. That accent just makes him even more dreamy. Tall heterosexual man with full chest hair.... when black actors and actresses wasn't getting any screen time in the US... they definitely appeared in 007 movies even when 007 movies 1st started back with Sean Connery. Gotta finish the others!!! See more Eddie Z Nov 14 Worst. Bond Movie. Ever See more Oliver J Oct 26 Critics Consensus: “Overstuffed and over-the-top, Die Another Day delivers some flashy fun but ultimately drowns in excess, trading Bond’s signature sophistication for CGI chaos and campy spectacle.” Pierce Brosnan’s fourth and final outing as 007 starts with a bang—a gritty capture and brutal imprisonment that promises a darker, more personal Bond story. Unfortunately, that promising setup soon gives way to invisible cars, laser satellites, and a tidal wave of digital effects that push the series’ suspension of disbelief past its breaking point. Brosnan remains a steady hand, exuding effortless cool even as the film spirals into absurdity. Halle Berry’s Jinx brings charisma and physicality to her role, though the script gives her little to work with beyond one-liners and stylized stunts. Toby Stephens’ Gustav Graves is a serviceable villain, but his outlandish plot and cartoonish delivery make him feel more parody than menace. Director Lee Tamahori clearly aims for bombastic spectacle—and in that respect, he succeeds. From the hovercraft chase in North Korea to the icy duels in Iceland, Die Another Day is nothing if not ambitious. Yet beneath the glossy surface lies a film unsure of its identity—caught between honoring Bond’s legacy and chasing the excesses of early-2000s blockbuster trends. Verdict: A visually loud and tonally uneven farewell for Brosnan’s Bond. Die Another Day offers moments of excitement but loses sight of what makes 007 truly timeless: style, wit, and restraint.
