 James
Bond is tortured by the North Koreans and abandoned by his own people
in Die Another Day, but in every other respect, right down
to the Aston Martins and Halle Berry's bikini (think Ursula Andress),
it's the same old Bond. The chief bad guy is the usual crazy billionaire,
who in this instance has developed some kind of space-borne solar
reflector. (Think SMERSH meets Greenpeace.) This series is in its
fortieth year; it might be nice to see Bond battle a readily identifiable,
real-world villain for a change. There's certainly no shortage.
