Anecdotes:

The only Pierce Brosnan James Bond film not to open at number one in the US box office charts. It was released in the same week as "Titanic" (1997).

Goofs:

Continuity: During the motorcycle chase, the Range Rovers become dusty and dirty while hitting bags on the side of the road. In a subsequent shot when they stop at right angles, they are absolutely clean.

Guillemet:

[first lines]
Charles Robinson: Our man's in position on the center camera. It's like a terrorist supermarket. Chinese Long March Scud, Panther AS-565 attack helicopter, a pair of Russian mortars, and the crates look like American rifles. Chilean mines. German explosives. Fun for the whole family.

Perfect!

When I received every movie in the James Bond DVD collection (the one with seven movies) for my birthday except for The Man with The Golden Gun, there were three movies in the set that I hadn't seen. The first one I checked out was Tomorrow Never Dies, and I loved it. Our piece of trash DVD player kept freezing, but I managed to watch the whole thing to the end. The movie kicks off with Bond investigating a terrorist arms market somewhere in Russia and has to escape being blown up by a missile launched by a ship at sea. This scene is great, and after the cool animations and the pretty good theme song by Sheryl Crow, things really start to heat up. Media mogul Elliot Carver, played excellently by Jonathan Pryce, is bent on starting an entire news network that reports nothing but bad news. Carver is trying to get Britain and China to attack each other and start a new world war. All this is great, but there are a few disappointments. For one, I think Paris Carver should have been given more time in the movie. Her character could really have played a great part in the end. There also should have been another action scene or two sandwiched somewhere in the movie. However, this is a still great movie that I recommend. 4 stars out of 5.
