Although not the real James Bond (Roger Moore ) it is a Great Movie.

I have never been disappointed with a James Bond movie and this one is no different.

A British naval ship, the Devonshire, had drifted too close to Chinese waters and the event leads the Devonshire sunk and a Chinese fighter destroyed. But a third ship, a stealth ship owned by media mogul Elliot Carver, used technology to fool both sides and the result creates a possible start to World War III. 007 James Bond is sent in to investigate Carver's plans and with the help of Carver's wife Paris (and an old flame of Bond's) and Wai Lin, a Chinese agent, Bond tries to stop 2 powerful governments from declaring war on each other.

The car chase in the parking garage was fantastic.

Brosnan Excels as Hard-Edged 007

Scott T. Rivers | Los Angeles, CA USA | 08/31/2009

(3 out of 5 stars)

"A flat pre-credit sequence and by-the-numbers climax prevent "Tomorrow Never Dies" (1997) from matching the overall excellence of "GoldenEye." What remains is mostly splendid - with Pierce Brosnan as an elegant yet refreshingly hard-edged James Bond. Jonathan Pryce's multimedia villainy and Michelle Yeoh's energetic presence help tremendously. However, the 007 producers made a big mistake replacing k.d. lang's dynamic theme song with Sheryl Crow's weak "official" version in the opening credits."

One of the Best Bond Movies

"Tomorrow Never Dies is one of the best Bond movies. Though I've enjoyed the later Bond movies starring Daniel Craig, I still think Pierce Brosnan was the better Bond, James Bond. Craig never seems like he's having any fun. Brosnan has the ability to show Bond enjoying himself, while still bringing a more realistic performance to a very non-realistic film genre. When Bond crashes down onto the Millennium Dome, Brosnan makes you feel Bond's pain (even if it is much less pain than a normal person would feel.) Bond teams up with Michelle Yeoh, as a Chinese secret agent, and provides an equal match for our hero. I would have loved to have seen more with that team. Jonathan Pryce is also entertaining as the main villain. His secret power is the ability to type with one hand. That's one ability I'd like to have!"
