Bond 20 is a pillar for the franchise

Advantages: Excellent villain, strong plot
Disadvantages: Slightly over the top with the special effects

Die Another Day is the 20th Bond film, and was released in 2002, the year of the 40th anniversary of the Bond film franchise. It was Pierce Brosnan's last outing as the MI6 agent, and was met with acclaim as well as criticism. The special effects take another step up and the action sequences are breathtaking. The Plot Bond liases with South Korean agents to prevent rogue North Korean officer and arms dealer Colonel Moon from starting an all out ...
...well. My Opinion Die Another Day is a very good film for many different reasons. Toby Stephens is one of them, but the other performances must not be overlooked. As the 20th film on the 40th anniversary, there were references to every single previous Bond film, which are too many to quote here, but can all be found by doing a single google search. I thoroughly enjoyed searching for them, though in the end I had to give up for some and look on the ...

Bond's 40th Anniversary!

Advantages: Classic Bond moments in first half of the film.
Disadvantages: Gadgets ruin the film, as does John Cleese as Q.

...The plot of Die Another Day revolves Bond being captured whilst on an undercover mission in Korea, he is held by the Koreans for a total of 14 months. Eventually he gets traded by the British Government for Zao. A terrorist who originally blew Bond's cover which in turn meant 007 was captured. Being held by the British Government as a traitor, Bond escapes and goes on the search for Zao, to discover exactly who betrayed him to the Koreans. What he ...
...it. The word Die has been used far too much in the films as well, and that's down to the writers, Robert Wade and Neil Purvis have really given it their all and totally gone for the ultimate Bond adventure. What is delivered is a highly entertaining film but so far over the top in the last hour that when watched again for a second or third time(usually on ITV2) the film starts to look more like the Matt Helm films starring Dean Martin from the 1960's ...

Die Another Day

Advantages: Has been out for a while now so cheaper
Disadvantages: Not as 'Bond' as some of it's predecessors

...to give the plot away, Die Another Day is the 20th film about supercool British spy James Bond. After Bond is captured and traded by the Korean Military, Bond embarks on a journey that takes him from the streets of London to the beautiful frozen surfaces of Iceland in an attempt to discover who betrayed him to the Korean's in the first place. With more guns, gadgets and more insane bad guys than before Die Another Day is exciting, but in a different ...
...his way through the stories, Die Another Day has Bond fight and blast his way though most of the movie. With a superb supporting cast featuring Halle Berry, Rick Yune, John Cleese and Dame Judi Dench, if this is a film you haven't seen already, it's time you did. ...
