Summary: VINTAGE WINES WITH A LICENCE TO KILL
Review: People tend to forget that James Bond had to go thru 19 other adventures before this one. Rating Bond is like tasting fine wines, the best usually remain tasting great after a long time. And Bond is just that. The movie was all about fun, it's over 130 minutes and you barely feel them. No other franchise will ever top that. Some people are looking forward to Bond 21 but I'm actually loving the thought of Bond 40. Bond lives on and this is a great chapter in the series. Buy this DVD as soon as the pre-order is available. Cheers!

Summary: The worst Bond movie ever made!
Review: What is this? A video game or what? The whole movie looked so ridiculous and childish, lousy script and lousy acting. Pierce Brosnan if money is not a objection, bail out of it like Sean Con-- as early as possible. Because you've already like Roger Moore, whose heart was not in the movies he played as 007 only to cash in by acting tough. Brosnan is a very talented actor and he should not do one more of this Bond movie again. As acting Bond, his performance is more and more deteriorated. And also, you just looked so old and tired in this movie giving me an impression during watch that you could hardly wait to finish this ridiculous movie and go somewhere else soonest possible. Well, the feeling is mutual, just do it, pal.

Summary: Worst Bond Movie Ever
Review: This movie was a complete joke. I am a die hard bond fan. I own all the dvds. I know bond inside and out, but this movie was a real disappointment. The movie has far too many stupid gadgets (come on, an invisible car that fixes itself?) What is with bond surfing? Bond scuba-dives, he DOESN'T surf. There is no real plot, so they had to cover that up with ... explosions. The villans are incredibly stupid, they could have killed bond countless times. And whats the deal with him pulling off the hood of a ice-car thing, attaching it to his feet and then sky-surfing/wave riding? Where did the bindings on the board come from. Save your money bond fans. This movie is pure junk.

Summary: Die Right Away....
Review: THis should have been the tittle of this sad excuse for a movie. Of course, I know it's selling like never. No wonder. The producers, director and screenwriter gave up for sure all the old attempts to preserve a certain charm, charisma and even sometimes a small (very small) vulnerability to Bond, and changed him into a killing machine, a character that is not even likeable. One simply could care less if Bond will survive or not. THe movie is simply bad. Millions and millions of dollars in an all-flat action movie (this is the selling point of the movie: it's one action sequence after another, without one single break. It's amazing. But the feeling I had when watching this was similiar to the one I felt when watching MISSION IMPOSSIBLE TWO: ok, I know I should turn my brain off to enjoy this. But why should I turn my brain off, if there are action movies (THE TWO TOWERS, for example, SPEED, for example, MATRIX, for example, PREDATOR, for example, DIE HARD, for example)that similarly absurd, but crafted with much more care and a kind of "honesty, I don't know how to express this feeling.

Summary: Trying too hard!!!
Review: As a movie, this would be a pretty decent movie. The problem is that this is a Bond movie. That carries with it some added expectations. The story is fitting to the Bond series. There is the evil enemy, the bizarre henchmen, the plan for world destruction, and the beautiful women. The plot is always essentially the same, but each time the path is different. That is what makes the Bond movies great. You can expect consistency in the style and the adventure. The problem here is that this one tired to be something it isn't. What I find most annoying is that it seems as if the film makers are trying to turn the franchise into a modern shoot 'em up action series. Please stick to the formula!!! This new film used some of the stop and pan shots found in the Matrix, as well as slo-mo shots. This worked in the Matrix, but it adds NOTHING to the film, if not detracting from it. The producers should have the faith in the story and characters to excite the audience and not attempt to dazzle us with special computer trickery. I am a huge Bond fan, and this film did not live up to my expectations. If you are not a Bond fan, this is not the movie on which to judge the series.

Summary: Typical Bond movie
Review: It's all there--the explosions, the beautiful girls, the high-tech gadgets, the evil villain, and of course 007 himself. In other words, this is a typical James Bond movie. If you've liked the others in the series, then you'll probably like this one. If not, don't bother.
In this particular edition, Bond is first in North Korea where he impersonates someone trying to buy weapons. He succeeds for awhile, but is then betrayed and becomes a prisoner. This part of the movie is darker than most of the series, but soon the scene shifts back to chases, love scenes, double entendres and all the usual Bondisms. Halle Barrie looks good and does a credible job as Bond's co-spy and rumors have it that there will soon be a spin-off with her as the star. I don't know how many more Bond films are in the future, but we might as well enjoy them while they're still being produced.

Summary: A whole new level of stupidity is reached with this movie...
Review: SAd. I used to like James Bond movies. even with Timothy Dalton I liked them. even the first one with Brosnan. But this DIA ANOTHER DAY is a bomb. A utterly, silly, ridiculous "action movie", where Bond is not a character anymore, it's just a killing machine, an assasssin, a kind of RAMBO. We simply cannot care about his character and that of Halle Barry, so empty and, in the ultimate case, more cruel than the villains! The movie is an endless series of explosions, explosions, fire, death and more death. All that using a unbeliavable bad taste plot about North Korea, since the actual diplomatic situation with this country. I'll not talk about the lies, they were some of the charm of this franchise, but here they are so stupid that I wanted to puke.

Summary: I guess
Review: Die Another Day is a pretty good movie, but it's not quite a Bond film. If this was the story of 002 or 006 I'd be satisfied with it but it's not and I wasn't. A couple of things bothered me. First, why is Bond, a 00 man on a such a simple mission when he falls into enemy hands? Where was the fun? Bond movies are supposed to be escapist thrill rides. Bond hardly gets to put on his tux. Die Another Day was darn near grim throughout. MI6 does several sloppy things before and after Bond's mission that don't make sense. Q makes only a tiny appearance and Moneypenney is appallingly miscast. What's good about the movie? Pierce Brosnon. He makes you forget the Timothy Dalton years completely. Halle Berry is a classic gorgeous Bond girl whose also quite capable of kicking butt on her own. Judi Dench as the frostiest M ever, and we finally get a villain whose crazy and evil enough to stand in the same room as the classic Bond villains. The Cuba and Iceland scenes are quite good too. Ultimately too much of the Bond legend is left on the cutting room floor. This wasn't much more than an oridnary spy flick. I liked it mostly but it wasn't a Bond film.

Summary: she won an Oscar?
Review: I am a die hard 007 fan. That out of the way, understand that I have been waiting for this film ever since walking out of the theatre after the World is Not Enough three years ago. Honestly I thought that Die Another Day would be a nice take back to the golden days of Connery as the Martini sipping, cigarette puffing snob of a secret agent. Ok, so I expected too much. Bond has to compete with xXx and other blow 'em up movies these days, I will give him that. But I am sorry to announce that I was very disappointed in Halle Berry's performance. Sure she's easy on the eyes, but entirely inconvincable as a CIA agent. In one of her scenes she tries to catch a helicopter on foot with her pistol directed toward the fleeing machine. It looked to me as if she was scaired to hold the gun in front of her. Entirely too stiff in the arm and not even trying to aim. Like I said I am a die hard fan of the movie series and the original books. Perhaps I expect too much. But does "yo' mama" have any place in the realm of sophisticated, international secret agent James Bond? This viewer believes not. If you have not seen this film and think I am being too anylitical, put down your eight bucks and decide for yourself. But don't expect oscar award winning diaglogue or a beleivable leading lady...
