Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFor the fight scene in the bicycle shop, the producers had to call in Jackie Chan's stunt team because none of the stuntmen wanted to do the scene with Michelle Yeoh due to her full contact stunt fighting style, which she perfected in Hong Kong action films.
- GoofsWhen Bond makes a HALO (High Altitude, Low Open) parachute jump, the Jumpmaster warns him that he needs to be on oxygen because he will be falling for five miles and will suffocate without it. So the aircraft is at well over 24,600 feet in altitude, with its main cargo door wide open. Everyone in the cargo bay would have needed to be wearing an oxygen mask for the entire sequence, not just Bond when he finally jumps.

Featured review
It's kind of like a Fast Food Burger. You consume it, enjoy it, but forget all about it as soon you are finished
A far cry from Goldeneye, but It doesn't necessarily deserve all the hate it receives either. Tomorrow Never Dies is a fast paced affair, and an easily agreeable time-waster, but it's not the follow-up Goldeneye deserved, either. It's much too daft for the heavy plot that it has. The main reason this movie is entertaining is the spectacular stunts. It has some great action set pieces, which managed to make the time pass nicely. Michelle Yeoh makes for a refreshingly unique Bond Girl, due to her actual Martial Arts background. I dug the chemistry with her & Brosnan. Speaking of Brosnan
He is very good as Bond. He has charisma and wit to spare. He's not quite as good as Timothy Dalton, but he is excellent nonetheless. Johnathan Pryce is decent as the villain. He is fitfully menacing and did the job overall. Teri Hatcher's character is a bit disposable, but she was good in her role. Desmond Llewelyn & Judi Dench are as classy as ever
Final Thoughts: Instantly forgettable stuff, but it manages to be an effective time-waster. It's not a great Bond film, but it is an OK action film. I didn't mind it at all.
5.6/10
