Tomorrow Never Dies (1997)

Director:  Roger Spottiswoode
Starring:  Pierce Brosnan, Jonathan Pryce, Michelle Yeoh, Teri Hatcher

As much as I hate admitting it, some films from the 90s are classics. *washes mouth out with soap*

Anyways, welcome to the first Bond film review at the Psycho Ward!  Today I'll be reviewing the eighteenth Bond film, Tomorrow Never Dies.

THE PLOT:  In the eighteenth installment of the Bond series, James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) teams up with Chinese agent Wai Lin (Michelle Yeoh) to stop maniacal journalist Elliot Carver (Jonathan Pryce, big fan of him), who is intent on breaching China's refusal to allow his groundbreaking new satellite and starting World War III. 

People who can't understand the coolness of James Bond/big words:  typical secret agent stuff.

THE REVIEW:  This is not my favorite Bond movie by any means.  It's not as terrible as For Your Eyes Only and DEFINITELY not as horrible as Quantum of Solace.  It has its fun moments.  To be fair, it sort of sounds like a plot for a Spider-Man or Superman comic.  I don't know.  Not much sex.  I'll give it a 3 out of 5.
