Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Best movie ever!

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Tomorrow Never Dies is one of the weakest installments of Bond. Entertaining enough, but nothing about it stands out.I don't care for the story or any of the villains. Carver was quite annoying and his muscle Stamper was as bland as can be. I think Teri Hatcher needed to be involved more and Michelle Yeoh's character was pretty uninteresting. There is so much unnecessary gunplay and kung fu. It might be the most action filled bond of the lot, trying to fill the void of the many things lacking. It's not just that though, it's quite a lot of bad action, I mean a chopper is flying behind them and they're just riding straight and the bullets are missing them. Just because you are Bond doesn't mean you can't be shot, you have to actually be better than them. The song by Sheryl Crow is also very weak and completely unmemorable. Despite a whole lot of negatives, it still isn't a bad film, just one of the worst in this particular great series.

It is more like a remake of the overused formula plot of old Bond movies where a megalomaniac steals and strikes the superpowers from a hideout to create a misunderstanding and start WWIII and become the principal bargainer in the process. It lacked intrigue, suspense, twists, not that many of Bond movies have that, but was far too straightforward, predictable and cliche. I always liked Brosnan , he is one of the better Bonds I felt, hope he had something more play to with in the opportunities he got to play this iconic character. 6/10

It was pretty much the general consensus that Pierce Brosnan's first outing as Bond ('Goldeneye') was actually a vast improvement on the brief 'Dalton era' (sorry Tim!). So, there was some speculation as to whether 'Goldeneye' was a fluke or not when it came to the next film in the franchise 'Tomorrow Never Dies.' I think I was as pleased as any Bond fan when I say that I was pleasantly surprised. I could almost say that – overall – 'Tomorrow Never Dies' is actually the highlight of the Brosnan reign.The film does its best to steer clear of the slightly more fanciful notion of a supervillain trying to take over the world, instead choosing for almost satirising one of today's real life media moguls (Rupert Murdoch anyone?) in their attempts to gain global positioning as the one and only source of news for the entire planet. And, in typical Bond style, this isn't done in the boardroom, but by starting a war between the UK and China, then filming the carnage that ensues. But, whatever carnage the villain can create, Bond does his best to match. And he does it very well. If you've seen one Bond film (especially one of the more modern ones with the higher budget) you should know what to expect. You get the fights, the chases and the exotic locations. It's all here for your enjoyment. I'm not dwelling on the details because it's all pretty standard when it comes to Bond films (please don't take that as a put-down of the film – it's actually the opposite!). This could almost be the 'perfect' Bond. That doesn't mean that it's the best of all that have ever been made. It has a formula like the rest and crosses all boxes, it just does it really well and, despite not giving anything that original, still is totally enjoyable – maybe even for people who aren't fans of the series.There are a few things that are 'extra' good about the film, such as the satirical take on the media (obviously filmed before the internet took off and you could probably take over the world or start a war via Twitter). Bond's boss, 'M,' gets more screen time (and with Judi Dench playing the role, then that's no bad thing), plus Michelle Yeoh is possibly the most capable and coolest Bond girl so far. The gadgets and Q are back, even if Desmond Llewelyn is looking more and more frail by now.I didn't see much in the way of negative points, however, if I'm going by other people's opinions of the film, I would mention that some felt than Jonathan Pryce was a little 'weak' as the villain/media mogul 'Elliot Carver.' Personally, I thought he was great, but many disagreed. I always thought that if you wanted to see a truly wooden Bond villain then try 'Moonraker' or 'The Spy Who Loved Me!' Overall, 'Tomorrow Never Dies' is a very solid Bond movie with a breath-taking chase through the streets of China between a motorbike and a helicopter. Brosnan has really hit his stride with this one – just do try not to be too upset by Bond driving a BMW!

After the incredible success of "Goldeneye" in Pierce Brosnan's first Bond outing, he returns here with a much more average campaign.For a basic plot summary, "Tomorrow Never Dies" sees Bond (Brosnan) trying to corral news mogul Elliot Carver (Jonathan Pryce) from setting up a network of satellites that will give him complete control over world news. Along the way, Bond meets up with former flame Paris (Terri Hatcher) as well as new "partner in spy" Wai Lin (Michelle Yeoh).Simply put, as the title of this review indicates, "Tomorrow Never Dies" is little more or less than the average Bond film. On the bright side, all the typical "Bond elements" are in place and in the right spots. On the downside, it takes a long time for this movie to shift from "exposition mode" to full-on "Bond-dom". Plus, the villains are completely dry (Carver is ridiculous) and even the henchmen are more cardboard than usual.Ironically enough, if one could combine the first half of Brosnan's later "The World Is Not Enough" with the second half of this effort, we would have maybe the best Bond ever! As it stands, though, this is probably Brosnan's 3rd-best effort, ahead of "Die Another Day" but behind the others.
