If this was a Roger Moore Bond it would probably be my favourite. 1987 60 year old Roger Moore, theme song by Adam Ant. Diamond face sucks. The fencing scene is great. James Bond parachuting into London while London Calling blasts was the death rattle for Bond being considered cool. Well cool’ish.

Starts off pretty good, then the invisible car and the ice palace show up and it turns into, fuck, I don't know? Diamonds, ice, lasers, pasty albino antagonist, futuristic car chases, harnessing the power of the sun?! Fucking James Bond & Robin?! I don't even know where to start, and there's not enough room here anyway. A master class in pure pants-crapping-crazy film insanity.

Die Another Day was not only shitty for a Bond film but just shitty for a movie in general. The direction didn't make sense, the writing was lazy and all of the actors completely mailed it in. [Full review]

Yes, this is by far the worst Bond movie. Somehow Cleese is bad as the new Q, or maybe the invisible car just rubbed off the stupid. Halle Berry continues at her downward trajectory, and we get a Madonna cameo that would have sucked you out of the movie (but it sucks so hard already *high five*). Do I have to mention the tidal wave of pixellated shame? It's a big letdown too, because the idea of Bond imprisoned is interesting and we'll probably never get a 007 film set in North Korea again.

The opening is great: it puts Bond in a position we've never seen him in before & makes the stakes really personal. Brosnan is also at his best, bringing a hard edge to Bond that's belied by puns & double entendres that are more eye-rolling than ever. There are 2 big twists & some cool new ideas (invisible car; ice palace; sword fight), but executed in a very cartoonish way (windsurfing off a glacier & awful shock glove efx). Berry is hot but can't convincingly pull off devil-may-care coolness.

Invisible cars be damned, this is still better than View To A Kill because at least it feels like a farce on some level. Bond getting brutally tortured felt pretty groundbreaking for this series at the time, but in light of Casino Royale, it doesn't go far enough. The winks to Bond films of old (the gadget scene in this one is essentially one big "HEY, REMEMBER THIS?") are enjoyable, as is Rosamund Pike as a femme fatale. Otherwise, this is crap. Tidal wave surfing? Madonna? Jesus.

Will I be thrown off Criticker if I admit I kinda sorta enjoy this dork-ass comic book-y CGI fest? (I mean, Roger Ebert himself gave it a thumbs up, so I have some company!) I mean, yes, it's SO UTTERLY stupid. I wish it didn't have an invisible car and virtual reality and CGI tsunami. But the first half with North Korea is actually kinda gritty and neat, Rosamund Pike is a delicious femme fatale, and that Bond/Gustav Graves sword fight, what dumb fun!

A very watchable piece of shit but Madonna. Her song is absolutely putrid. It literally coats the rest of the film in its stink and you can never recover the odious sounds that materialized from her maw. And that dreadful cameo of hers. I know she wanted to be British for a few years but they just had to go and sully their greatest franchise of filmes. And not even for Madonna in her prime when she was the material girl!

The first half of this movie is amazing schlock and then it turns into an hour of stuntmen running away from cartoons.

Die Another Day is by far the most jumbled Bond film of them all. There are glimmers of thrills and excitement, but the boundaries of stupidity have reached breaking point. Pierce Brosnan remains a great James Bond, no question. But with the exception of Goldenye, his other outings are some of the worst Bond films. Bringing back the Aston Martin was a nice touch. But otherwise the plot, supporting cast, cartoonish set pieces and gadgets ruin this 20th outing that should have been much classier.

Decent Bond flick despite the fact that the current fashion among Bond fans is to bash the Brosnan films. Some of the action is boring and contrived, but the villain is very good in this one. Too bad this is the last Bond film from Brosnan as he is certainly one of the best if not the best to play the role. Those who take or want to take Bond seriously might be disappointed. Those who already realize the whole franchise is and always has been a joke, will find it somewhat entertaining.

Trying for the most modern Bond to date, those mindless hacks Purvis & Wade cram a ton of the most uncool, un-Bondlike gimmicks into the film. Jinx is the antithesis to what we want from a Bond girl. An invisible car is a step too far in terms of gadgetry. Same goes for the ice palace, the diamonds in the face, the neural programming, the whole package. Brosnan is up for the role but just looks fed up with the nonsense happening all around him. Please can we go back 50 years and start all over?

Bond movies can never stay away too long from space lasers. They worked so hard making a suave Bond, only to ruin it. It's like putting clown makeup on a lion. It tries way too hard to be cool with cool kid extreme sports and plastic gadgets. Bad CGI and green screen, bad lines and acting. They Flanderised Bond and yet weakened him at once, and erased in the progress they made with Bond girls. The good action scenes are surrounded by lesser ones. Brosnan tried his best despite it all. I'm sad

(2nd viewing) This is what you get when you attempt to make a Bond film with no sense of vision, style or direction. The pre-title sequence was fine, but it jumps the shark when Halle Boobies' character literally jumps off a cliff into the ocean and the villain is just a total joke . Undoubtedly the worst Bond film ever made which is such a shame for Brosnan because he was IMHO the best actor to portray the role.

Netflix thinks I finished this, but I'm not sure I stuck around all the way to the end. Bond has always stretched believability, and I'm usually willing to suspend disbelief because they've usually got some redeeming quality. This Bond movie doesn't really have anything to save it.

This is trash. So apparently the same American guy and the Chinese guy are the same person but with DNA that was transferred and it's the same person who set up Bond. Basically a weapon called Icarus that is a satellite dish that is a massive weapon that destroys countries with a huge heat wave. Bond has to try and stop the enemy. This was really boring. Action paced and story were slow. This is the worst Bond movie I have seen.

This Bond movie is plane stupid. Purvis and Wade have written the script to "The World is not Enough" with much better end result. Beside the stupid plot, also computer integrated special effects are really awful. And once more, don't let singers to act (Madonna) - this is not good idea.

Rewatched. Connery had Diamonds, Moore had Moonraker, and Brosnan has this drivel. As poorly written as any James Bond film. The dialogue is just a series of quips, come-ons, and sarcastic asides, none of which are funny. Director Tamahori probably wasn't the best choice for such a campy script. But for brainless entertainment, it was much more fun than TWINE. I was never a fan of Brosnan. A good Bond needs, as much as anything, a characterful face to draw you in - and Brosnan draws a blank.

Some of the action is cool, but this was produced during the lull in quality of the Bond franchise - between Brosnan's charming Goldeneye version and Daniel Craig's more cold revival of the character. Brosnan is still naturally charming and clearly inhabits the character's suave nonchalance without effort, but the film relies more on goofy stunts and even goofier characters (like a villain with literal diamonds in his face) that don't land. It's fun, but there are better films in the series.

Die Another Day's controversy on release was BuY aNoThEr DaY. What critics didn't realize is that the movie itself had so many more issues that I didn't notice the product placement. Yet again, Bond is surrounded by bland and dumb characters with cartoonish MacGuffins/contrivances and action scenes that are just painful to get through. Just like Roger Moore, it's hard to accurately judge Pierce Brosnan on his Bond because everything around him was bad-to-terrible most of the time.

To my eternal shame as a Bond fan, I really kind of enjoyed this. The first half is vintage Bond, and once they get to the ice castle, it gets so hilariously over-the-top that I had a hard time not being entertained. Halle Berry doesn't really work here, but her shortcomings are more than made up for by a delicious performance by Rosamund Pike. Yes, it's a little too long, yes, there's lots of CGI, and yes, a lot of it doesn't make any sense - but I still found a lot to enjoy.

Die Another Day was my 1st Bond in theatres with friends & I mostly enjoyed it. Rewatching it in 2023, it's not a very good film. The political undertones post 9/11 & Bond being disavowed are the most interesting facets. What remains is a film let down bad direction, bad performances & CGI that's aged terribly. The plot is farfetched with many references to earlier films; which is fine had everything else not been so bad. Pleather: a shinny imitation that looks cheap upon closer inspection.

DaD takes the ridiculousness of Moonraker and cranks it up to eleven, which lodges it firmly in the "So Bad It's Good Territory" territory for me; I loved Stephens' preppy villain.

On side note, I can't believe some people can call "Another Way To Die" the worst Bond theme ever in a world where this grating piece of autotuned shit by Madonna exists. I mean, come on. (2/5)

DIE ANOTHER DAY isn't very good, but it's not that bad either; the plot is a mess, the main villain isn't very strong, the special effects are shockingly uneven, and it throws logic to the wind more than a few times. But it has enough action (X-treme fencing?) and good spirits (and an invisible car) to keep it trucking along, and Pierce Brosnan ends his tenure in the role with a fine performance; Halle Berry, unfortunately, is not so good. A few nice in-jokes (this being the 20th Bond) help.

Right from the start this isn't good. Madonna's autotuned theme in the opening credits doesn't fit the Bond image. The film itself starts on a darker note that most Bond outings (except may License to Kill) but quickly loses itself in Hollywood sci-fi nonsense last seen in Moonraker. Berry's only notable contribution is the action scenes by her stunt double; the chemistry between her and Brosnan is more frozen than the Icelandic setting.
