Efficient action, gleaming product placement and, in Michelle Yeoh, a convincing foil for Bond.

Reviews for Tomorrow Never Dies
Top CriticFlawed, but fantastic fun all the same.
06/24/06
Top CriticA strong entry, with Brosnan the comfortable, confident face of the invigorated franchise, reflecting the Connery glory days 30 years earlier.
09/10/01
Top CriticAfter a ropey patch, Bond is categorically back.
01/01/00
Top CriticOne watches a Bond film for two hours of spy intrigue, car chases, fights, explosions, and beautiful women, and on that fairly undemanding level, it delivers the goods.
03/29/09
The 18th James Bond movie features the usual saturation bombardment.
11/10/08
...a briskly-paced and thoroughly entertaining James Bond adventure...
10/26/08
The major episodes are, as always, well-executed.
10/18/08
Kinetic, knowing, crammed with high-tech gadgetry and sophisticated in the most superficial sense of the term: What else could you ask of a James Bond picture?
10/15/08
A solid but somewhat by-the-numbers entry in the James Bond cycle.
07/28/08
Top CriticThe film seldom reaches the pitch of Goldfinger, but it does stay on tune, thanks to performers who know how to belt out an old favorite.
07/16/08
a great follow up to goldeneye
02/12/08
The winsome pic gives the people what they want. At least, what they want from the Bond franchise.
07/21/07
Even the evil henchman is badly picked: Ricky Jay is a lovable magician, not a hard-nosed killer.
02/25/07
Michelle Yeoh is a the lone bright star as the Chinese operative who occasionally, and rewardingly, resorts to Jackie Chan styled chop socky combat.
12/06/05
A crowd-pleaser that does the series justice.
04/09/05
The filmmakers appear to have started with a series of stunts...and built a script around them.
07/27/04
Yeoh is very effective in this film, but the rest of the cast is not.
11/20/03
No review available.
05/20/03
If you like Bond movies, you'll like it; if you don't, you won't.
