Die Another Day is worst James Bond film. Period. End of discussion. Case closed. End of story.
Pierce Brosnan is a fine actor, and his first three Bond outings were solid, if not spectacular. But Die Another Day overwhelms you with mindless CGI and action sequences, overwhelming the characters. Please do yourself a favor, folks. Go to your local video store and rent Goldfinger, the 1964 classic that is without question the BEST Bond outing in the series. Goldfinger has far less action, but is ten times more entertaining.
Why? Because Goldfinger has virtues like PLOT, CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, and TOP-NOTCH DIALOGUE.
By comparison, Die Another Day is a cinematic video game. I like Toby Stephens as the arrogant Brit-brat, but Brosnan seems subdued and, well, old. Halle Berry is a vastly overrated actress, and Rick Yune is a baddie straight from central casting. The less said about Madonna's theme song, the better. My, how the mighty have fallen.
