  "Oh, James! Your 20th outing shows off a lot of stamina and vitality, and get this, Madonna’s cameo doesn’t suck!"
-- Victoria Alexander, FILMSINREVIEW.COM

2.5/5  "Passably entertaining but also mechanical and joyless."
-- Jason Anderson, EYE WEEKLY

3/4  "It's easily the fastest, meanest, funniest, edgiest Bond of the Brosnan era."
-- Todd Anthony, SOUTH FLORIDA SUN-SENTINEL

2.5/4  "A thunderous ride at first, quiet cadences of pure finesse are few and far between; their shortage dilutes the potency of otherwise respectable action. Still, this flick is fun, and host to some truly excellent sequences."
-- Ross Anthony, HOLLYWOOD REPORT CARD

B  "...only Bond can save us from the latest eccentric, super-wealthy megalomaniac bent on world domination and destruction."
-- Brian J. Arthurs, BEACH REPORTER (SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA)

2.5/4  "Until (the) superfluous...epilogue that leaks suspension of disbelief like a sieve, Die Another Day is as stimulating & heart-rate-raising as any James Bond thriller."
-- Rob Blackwelder, SPLICEDWIRE

  "Brosnan is more feral in this film than I’ve seen him before and Halle Berry does her best to keep up with him."
-- Luanne Brown, CHICO ENTERPRISE-RECORD

3/4  "This 20th entry in the 40-year-old series easily emerges as the best of the Brosnan Bonds."
-- Matt Brunson, CREATIVE LOAFING

B+  "The best of the Pierce Brosnan James Bond films to date."
-- Larry Carroll, COUNTINGDOWN.COM

C  "Another rent installment for the Ian Fleming estate."
-- Jim Chastain, NORMAN TRANSCRIPT

2/4  "It’s a stale, overused cocktail using the same olives since 1962 as garnish. Not only is entry number twenty the worst of the Brosnan bunch, it’s one of the worst of the entire franchise."
-- Erik Childress, HOLLYWOOD BITCHSLAP

B-  "Berry's saucy, full-bodied performance gives this aging series a much needed kick, making "Die Another Day" one of the most entertaining Bonds in years"
-- Laura Clifford, REELING REVIEWS

2.5/4  "It took 19 predecessors to get THIS?"
-- Linda Cook, QUAD CITY TIMES (DAVENPORT, IA)

B+  "May be far from the best of the series, but it's assured, wonderfully respectful of its past and thrilling enough to make it abundantly clear that this movie phenomenon has once again reinvented itself for a new generation."
-- William Arnold, SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER

3/4  "'No es la mejor cinta de la serie, ni la mejor con Brosnan a la cabeza, pero de que entretiene ni duda cabe.'"
-- Jorge Avila Andrade, MOVIOLA

  "Like most Bond outings in recent years, some of the stunts are so outlandish that they border on being cartoonlike. A heavy reliance on CGI technology is beginning to creep into the series."
-- Bob Bloom, JOURNAL AND COURIER (LAFAYETTE, IN)

2/4  "This Bond film goes off the beaten path, not necessarily for the better."
-- Gary Brown, HOUSTON COMMUNITY NEWSPAPERS

  "Too loud, too long and too frantic by half, Die Another Day suggests that the Bond franchise has run into a creative wall that 007 cannot fly over, tunnel under or barrel through."
-- Robert W. Butler, KANSAS CITY STAR

B-  "[The digital effects] reminded me of Terry Gilliam's rudimentary old Monty Python cartoons, in which he would cut out figures from drawings and photographs and paste them together."
-- Carlo Cavagna, ABOUTFILM.COM

2/4  "There's just no currency in deriding James Bond for being a clichéd, doddering, misogynistic boy's club."
-- Walter Chaw, FILM FREAK CENTRAL

B  "“Die Another Day” is a worthy entry in the pantheon of James Bond movies."
-- Robin Clifford, REELING REVIEWS

3/4  "Die Another Day is stylish and state of the art, and Bond aficionados will love the anniversary homages to previous films."
-- Howard Cohen, MIAMI HERALD

3/4  "Day is not a great Bond movie, but it is a good Bond movie, which still makes it much better than your typical Bond knock-offs."
-- David Cornelius, AMAZING COLOSSAL WEBSITE

Hot Pick
2.5/5  "There's no real reason to see it, and no real reason not to."
-- Ray Greene, BOXOFFICE MAGAZINE

Avg. Rating: 6.3/10
2.5/4  "A lot smarter than your average Bond."
-- John Anderson, NEWSDAY

  "Dissing a Bond movie is quite like calling a dog stupid, but when it has the temerity to run over two hours, you feel like winding up with a kick."
-- Michael Atkinson, VILLAGE VOICE

2/4  "This is a train wreck of an action film -- a stupefying attempt by the filmmakers to force-feed James Bond into the mindless XXX mold and throw 40 years of cinematic history down the toilet in favor of bright flashes and loud bangs."
-- James Berardinelli, JAMES BERARDINELLI'S REELVIEWS

2/4  "You leave feeling like you've endured a long workout without your pulse ever racing."
-- Mark Caro, CHICAGO TRIBUNE

  "There's a heavy stench of 'been there, done that' hanging over the film. It's everything you'd expect -- but nothing more."
-- Paul Clinton, CNN

2/5  "Die Another Day is only intermittently entertaining but it's hard not to be a sucker for its charms, or perhaps it's just impossible not to feel nostalgia for movies you grew up with."
-- Manohla Dargis, LOS ANGELES TIMES

C+  "Remember when Bond had more glamour than clamor? No more."
-- Robert Denerstein, DENVER ROCKY MOUNTAIN NEWS

3/4  "This movie has the usual impossible stunts ... But it has just as many scenes that are lean and tough enough to fit in any modern action movie."
-- Roger Ebert, CHICAGO SUN-TIMES

B+  "007 shows he still has the double-O goods in Die Another Day."
-- Eleanor Ringel Gillespie, ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION

A-  "The first Bond movie in ages that isn't fake fun."
-- Owen Gleiberman, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

1/5  "This series should have died long ago, but they keep bringing it back another day as punishment for paying money to see the last James Bond movie."
-- Cherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann Palone, THEMOVIECHICKS.COM
