A competent, if sometimes by-the-numbers entry to the 007 franchise, Tomorrow Never Dies may not boast the most original plot but its action sequences are genuinely thrilling.

If Connery was Sexy Bond and George Lazenby was One-Shot Bond and Roger Moore was Geezer Bond and Timothy Dalton was Bored Bond, then Brosnan should be Posh Bond.
Bond is just a glorified stuntman now; he's lost his license to thrill.
The 18th James Bond movie features the usual saturation bombardment.
A solid but somewhat by-the-numbers entry in the James Bond cycle.
Flawed, but fantastic fun all the same.
Brosnan is fast becoming the second best 007 -- effortlessly competent and coolly sexy.
Top notch popcorn entertainment, straight from the Hollywood factory. This is even better than GOLDENEYE.
It succeeds, although it is let down by its weak villain. But there are enough stunts, quips and high-tech thrills to keep you from caring.
A thrill machine akin to one of the canon's more cleverly naughty entendres, uttered here: "You always were a cunning linguist, James." Obvious and crass to please everyone's inner schoolboy, but presented with just enough eloquence and ingenuity.
Not, in aggregate, the worst of the Pierce Brosnan Bond films, but... it has the weakest excuse for a conflict.
Bond, James Bond. For mature eyes only.
One watches a Bond film for two hours of spy intrigue, car chases, fights, explosions, and beautiful women, and on that fairly undemanding level, it delivers the goods.
...a briskly-paced and thoroughly entertaining James Bond adventure...
The major episodes are, as always, well-executed.
Kinetic, knowing, crammed with high-tech gadgetry and sophisticated in the most superficial sense of the term: What else could you ask of a James Bond picture?
Efficient action, gleaming product placement and, in Michelle Yeoh, a convincing foil for Bond.
The film seldom reaches the pitch of Goldfinger, but it does stay on tune, thanks to performers who know how to belt out an old favorite.
a great follow up to goldeneye
The winsome pic gives the people what they want. At least, what they want from the Bond franchise.
Even the evil henchman is badly picked: Ricky Jay is a lovable magician, not a hard-nosed killer.
