Summary
Spy adventure starring Pierce Brosnan, Halle Berry and Toby Stephens. After being betrayed during an operation in North Korea, agent James Bond is held prisoner by a ruthless military leader. A trade-off secures Bond's freedom, but his "00" agent status is withdrawn when he is suspected of leaking secret information. Eager for revenge, and with a traitor on the loose, Bond sets off on his own mission - to get close to evil megalomaniac Gustav Graves and uncover the secrets of his Icarus Project.

Review
A star rating of 3 out of 5.
Sloan Freer
The relentless pacing and director Lee Tamahori's fluid style help enliven this 20th James Bond adventure, which marked Pierce Brosnan's last outing as the secret agent. From North Korea and London to Cuba and a dazzling Icelandic snow palace, the locations are inspired, even if the plotline and gadgets are more preposterous than ever (invisible car, anyone?). Brosnan is on fine form as a betrayed and vengeful 007, combining the secret agent's charm and throwaway wit with true toughness and a streak of venom. Such character-broadening traits ensure that the format never feels stale, while the introduction of Halle Berry as an equal, if underdeveloped, female sidekick is a coup. However, their escapades are let down by some poor-looking CGI, while Madonna's grating theme song and cameo as a fencing instructor are simply dire.
