21 Days of Bond # 20 – Die Another Day

Girl:

Jinx (Halle Berry)
Miranda Frost (Rosamund Pike)

Bad Guy:

Gustav Graves (Toby Stephens)

Theme Tune:

Die Another Day – Madonna

The last Brosnan Bond movie and probably the most disappointing one. With each movie trying to be bigger and better than the last, Die Another Day is just big. There are lots of good points about the movie but there are also pieces that just spoil the experience. Jinx is a character that is trying to outdo every other Bond girl and it fails, right from when Halle Berry walks out of the water ala Ursula Andress. It feels as if Jinx is just copied from many other Bond girls rather than being original. As much as I adore Aston Martins, having an invisible car is probably the dumbest, most unbelievable gadget ever in Bond. And that theme tune, should never have been accepted to be in the movie. Easily the worst Bond theme tune ever.
