Despite the mixed reviews, I think this high-tech eighteenth Bond film is smart, well-thought-out, thrilling, and filled with both great acting and great action.

Male fantasy #1 continues it's grip on the West as Brosnan smoothly does all that Bond is supposed to do: steal bad guy's woman, ruin bad guy's plan for world domination, get the next cutie lined up (she always looks great in a bikini!), avenge the death of the bad guy's woman, p... read more

Nothing going for this movie, Bond in China doesn't work.
Update: My least favorite Bond by far. -

Excellent Bond movie with 007 on a mission to stop war between England and China. My fave scene is the freefall off the skyscraper. Pierce is hot.

After the solid Goldeneye, Tomorrow Never Dies is a slight step down. The idea for this film was good, but it doesn't quite feel like a Bond film. Tomorrow Never Dies is a hit and miss film with many good moments, but with quite a few ones at that. Just when Goldeneye injected ne... read more

Roger Spottiswoode gets the chance to direct Pierce Brosnan's sophomore James Bond film.

Pierce Brosnan's sophomore outing as James Bond finds 007 up against a megalomaniac media owner (Jonathan Pryce) who wants to bring the world to the brink of World War III for ratings.
Brosnan continues his dominance in the James Bond role and Michelle Yeoh plays one of those Bo... read more
Critic Reviews
A solid but somewhat by-the-numbers entry in the James Bond cycle. Full Review
Brosnan is fast becoming the second best 007 -- effortlessly competent and coolly sexy. Full Review
Veteran director Roger Spottiswoode has tried to pep the old warhorse up, but the combined inertia of all those pictures over 35 years proves hard to budge. Full Review
You won't miss a thing should you leave well before the end. If more can't be found in Bond than this, I wouldn't object, in principle, to that tuxedo's being hung up in the closet for good. Full Review
Somebody thought it would be a nifty idea for Yeoh, who does her own stunts, to make her Hollywood debut as a Bond Girl. Too bad they weren't smart enough to think of having her make her Hollywood deb... Full Review
Gets the job done, sometimes excitingly, often with style. Full Review
Lead Pierce Brosnan seems distracted, and even the standard pre-credits production number falls flat before the main story begins.
This latest film is such a generic action event that it could be any old summer blockbuster, except that its hero is chronically overdressed. Full Review
