Die Another Day Ratings & Reviews
- ርልዪረJanuary 28, 2025╾━╤デ╦︻(˙ ͜ʟ˙ )Die Another Day is a great movie. It has a good plot, a fascinating villain, a lovely Bond girl, plenty of tech toys which for a change seem to actually fit comfortably (for the most part), and even a funny appearance by John Cleese as Q. What's not to love? The plot of this movie stands out among the Bond films not based on Ian Fleming's original 007 stories. Unlike some of those, the names of which I will not single out, there are no silly villains or half-hearted threats. The danger feels real and believable as a genetically-modified North Korean military leader pulls a coup and then threatens to upset the balance of power in the decades old Korean conflict. His method is fairly standard for the genre- a satellite that can destroy anything on Earth. What the satellite does is pretty original though so that is ok. I will not comment further about it though so if you are interested you will have to watch it yourself. In addition to a believable villain and plot, the Bond girl stands out. It's Halle Berry playing NSA agent Jinx and she is hot in that role. Her acting performance is good, portraying a secret agent who is no helpless gal. She proves an interesting and more importantly useful partner for 007 as he seeks to take down our genetically altered North Korean friend. Bond films occasionally, as most 007 fans know, go over the top on the tech toys. The toys often feel overpowered for the task at hand. In Die Another Day, they seem to fit perfectly. The device that breaks glass comes in handy as does the invisible car. The car bothered me initially but the studio limits the hokeyness level of the scene by allowing the bad guys to ultimately notice the car even while invisible so that's ok. I will not give out any more spoilers on this topic. I do want to mention though there is a scene in the movie where some of the old toys from previous Bond films are briefly discussed. This is a fun part of the movie. I love John Cleese in his brief role as Q. The extras on the movie are standard fare. There are lots of nice things but nothing amazing. The video and audio on the Blu-ray transfer are amazing as all the 007 adventures have been so far. I highly recommend this film to Bond fans and to anyone who generally likes espionage thrillers or action movies. I give five out of five stars because the movie, acting, plot and special effects are all very good but additionally this was, as it turned out, Brosnan's last outing as Bond. It was a memorable one. Buy this movie!
- GBWestNovember 10, 2025As always, Pierce Brosnon shines in his acting, and James Bond lives on to see another Casino Royale...yes, I am aware that will be Daniel Craig. In his fourth and final outing as the MI6 British super spy, Pierce Brosnon, there is a strong story, good action, and a fairly straightforward storyline with a twist that I'm pretty sure surprised nobody. The CGI has not aged well, see the kite surfing in the Antarctic seen, though the rest is well received. Halley Berry is sexy while maintaining a very dissimilar behavior to many previous bond women. She should have gotten that planned spin-off film series. Unfortunately, for as much as she was liked, she was still pretty two-dimensional. I thought that this film was fairly entertaining and will rematch it again in my next go around of the series.
- Jakeys3d agoAn insult to Pierce Brosnan's Bond. Once Gustav Graves and Madonna show up, it falls off a CGI ice cliff. Good intro though.
- Iwan G. IltesOctober 19, 2025Great movie
- infectedAugust 20, 2025Solid Bond flick. Underrated. Great story and great action.
- Myrddin EmrysDecember 18, 2025My favorite James Bond !!! But the Craig trilogy is in a special bubble. I love Pierce Brosnan as James, and this opus is the best.
- John ShadelJuly 13, 2025Awesome bond movie! One of the best.
