FILM: Die Another Day

My most common complaints about the recent Bond films have centered on two areas: Lack of pith in Bond’s trademark pithy one-liners, and lack of belief in the female leads (Denise Richards is … a nuclear scientist!). This movie addresses both of those issues, and even dares to mix up the standard Bond formula a bit. Halle Berry is a welcome addition to the franchise, and a return engagement by her “Jinx” character would be nice. But Bond is the man here, and Pierce Brosnan shows us a new side of the super-spy. Here, we see Bond abandoned, outcast, disavowed … yet still determined to complete a mission of personal importance. Good effects, good stunts, good acting, and a terrible song by Madonna. Ah, well … Link |
