Sigh Another Way.

Die Another Day is directed by Lee Tamahori and written by Neil Purvis and Robert Wade. It stars Pierce Brosnan, Halle Berry, Toby Stephens, Rick Yune, Rosamund Pike, John Cleese, Judi Dench and Michael Madsen. Music is scored by David Arnold and cinematography by David Tattersall.

Bond 20 and 007 is captured and tortured by the North Koreans after being betrayed by an MI6 mole. After being exchanged for a deadly enemy operative, Bond has his 007 status revoked and is forced to go rogue to find who the mole is.

As the Bond franchise celebrated 40 years of being, the film to mark the occasion, ironically, forgot the subtle ingredients that make up the best Bond movies. What we get is a chaotic movie, excess is the order of the day, with Eon allowing Tamahori to stack up scene after scene of video game standard ideas. There is no lack of effort here, the heart is full of good intentions, but some big cheese in a suit should have reined the director in. It’s also a sad day in the Bond universe when a Bond film uses homage’s to homage itself, only for that idea to tire itself out as well. There is barely any time for reflective silences, for a show of character depth, on the odd occasion the film slows down, gasping for air, Tamahori rushes into the next bit of noise annoys. While the action is often as laughable as the dialogue. This may have made a pot load of cash, but few serious Bond fans would have returned to see this again at the cinema. It’s Bond for the non Bond fans, a lazy popcorn no brain for the gamers who just want crash, bang and wallop with no substance. Ssshh, did someone say Batman & Robin?

As the film unfolds in a blur of sledgehammer editing and lack of restraint, not to forget CGI that is shameful, the cast struggle to keep the good ship Bond afloat. Brosnan is on smug auto-pilot, this film proving to be a sad farewell for him from a role he had previously graced with some distinction. Berry is gorgeous but looks awkward with the action scenes and can’t carry off the chirpy aspects of the script, though in her defence she’s not done any favours by the writers and Tamahori is more concerned with showcasing her twin assets. Pike is OK, sexy and feisty, if a little difficult to accept as a MI6 agent. Stephens, who went on to do very good acting work later in his career, hams it up for all he is worth. Meant to be a shadow characterisation of Bond, Stephens plays Gustav Graves as some posh cartoon character from a Brit sit-com, a world away from the much needed dastard villain opposing Bond. His motives unclear and a victim of one of the film’s more berserker twists. Yune is fun with his diamond studded face and old pros Cleese and Dench at least come out of it with reputations still intact. While Madsen is criminally underused.

Elsewhere on a technical front there’s also not much to shout about. Madonna’s title song, the worst in the series by far, is only beaten in awfulness by her cameo in the film. Tattersall’s photography barely registers above the ordinary, with sub-standard location filming not helping either, and Arnold’s score is about as far removed from Bond flavours as it can get. There are some good scenes within, a machismo pumped sword fight between Bond and Graves and a laser beam (hello Goldfinger my old friend) dodging fist fight stand tall above the messy quagmire, but the memory of the good sequences are quickly vanquished once the “invisible car” is put to field duty use! And with that there really is no more to say about the “quality” of Die Another Day. For Bond fans it’s about a 5/10 movie, for casual blockbuster fans after a cheap thrill it will no doubt score higher.

_**One of the top two in Brosnan’s stint**_

Agent 007 (Pierce Brosnan) is sent to North Korea to investigate a colonel illegally trading weapons for African blood diamonds. The trail eventually leads from Hong Kong to Cuba where Bond meets Jinx (Halle Berry) and infiltrates a gene therapy clinic in a veritable fortress off the coast. Next, Bond has a thrilling fencing match at a swank club in London with the main villain (Toby Stephens). The final act switches to an incredible ice palace in Iceland and back to Korea. Rick Yune is on hand as the secondary villain, Zao.

“Die Another Day” (2002) was Pierce Brosnan’s fourth and final performance as James Bond and it has the most pizazz of his four movies by far. Its heightened comic book-ness gives it a bad rap, but that’s what makes it stand out from the previous two installments, which had a muted palette and were somewhat forgettable (although entertaining enough). The villains are more memorable in this one and the Bond women are certainly acceptable. The best part of the film, for me, is the over-the-top sword fight at the manor. Although it’s so overdone it’s somewhat goofy, it may very well be the best sword fight in the history of cinema.

The second half, which mostly takes place in Iceland, has several good action sequences as well, even goofier than the sword fight, like the iceberg tsunami on which Bond surfs (Why Sure!). But it’s not like this is the first time an action scene was totally ludicrous in a Bond picture (Remember the ‘Bat Boat’ in the opening of “The World is Not Enough”?).

The first time I saw Brosnan my initial thought was, “He’d make a great Bond,” and so he does; but it’s a different Bond than Connery or Moore and it takes time to get used to him.

Madonna sings the title song (and has a cameo).

The film runs 2 hours, 13 minutes, and was shot in Maui, Hawaii (opening surfing scene); England (including as a stand-in for Korea); Andalucía, Spain (Cuba); Austurland, Iceland, and Norway (ice car chase and ice palace environs).

GRADE: B+/A-

Despite its less-than-stellar reputation, I really enjoyed rewatching Die Another Day
When I first watched this James Bond flick with some friends at a movie theatre 20 years ago, I remember enjoying it a lot! Now that I know that it’s considered perhaps the least enjoyable among some Bond fans and that it has perhaps the most ridiculous of plots especially concerning some of the gadgets (i.e. An invisible car) and some of the CGI (i.e. The skydiving scene) are especially noticeable, well, I still highly enjoy it! I mean, Pierce Brosnan was still aces as Bond in what turned out to be his final outing as such, Halle Berry made a fine Bond Girl who more than matched him in intense action scenes, Rosamund Pike was also good as a fellow agent who…well, I don’t want to reveal too much. Oh, and John Cleese, in his second Bond appearance, was also good for some laughs as the new Q, though this turned out to be his last time in the series. Director Lee Tamahori stages great action scenes almost non-stop making such an entertaining romp throughout! Oh, and I also liked Madonna’s cameo before the fencing scene especially her exit line! And I also thought her title song was pretty cool especially during images of Pierce being…okay, I’ll just now say that Mom and I really enjoyed Die Another Day and leave it at that! P. S. Deborah Moore, daughter of previous JB Roger, was the flight attendant serving Brosnan on a British Airways plane.
