Pierce Brosnan makes his fourth appearance as suave super-spy
James Bond in this
espionage thriller, the 20th film in the official
Bond series. While on assignment in North Korea,
Bond is captured by government agents, where he's imprisoned and tortured for over a year. When
Bond finally wins his freedom, not everyone is certain
007 is still capable of doing the job, but after
Zao (
Rick Yune), the North Korean operative who snared
Bond, is discovered to be in cahoots with unscrupulous entrepreneur
Gustav Graves (
Toby Stephens),
Bond is back on the case, and he finds the two men have sinister plans which could decide the fate of the world. As
Bond hops from England to Cuba to Korea to Iceland in pursuit of his quarry, he (as usual) makes the acquaintance of two beautiful and mysterious women,
Jinx (
Halle Berry) and
Miranda Frost (
Rosamund Pike).
Judi Dench and
John Cleese return in
Die Another Day as, respectively,
Bond's superior
M and gadget-master
Q;
Madonna contributes the film's theme song and makes a cameo appearance as a fencing instructor. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
