Tomorrow Never Dies | 1997 | PG-13 | - 3.6.3

James Bond is back and saving the world from a Rupert Murdoch-like media mogul.

SEX/NUDITY 3 - Scantily clad women, sexual innuendo (including an oral sex reference). Lots of kissing. A couple kiss in bed while clad in sheets. A woman appears to be naked and seems to have been interrupted during sex although nothing is seen.

VIOLENCE/GORE 6 - Lots of explosions, reckless driving and flying, lots of threatening with guns. A man is nearly strangled and a man is ejected from a plane. Someone's foot is nearly crushed. Many people are machine gunned and otherwise shot to death throughout the film -- but without blood. Men fall through glass. Choking, near drownings and floating corpses. A man falls into a printing press which results in bloody paper. Some men are shocked. A man is shot in the head by another (not really seen). A man is harpooned. Someone is stabbed in the mouth (some blood). A man is drilled to death (not really seen). A man is stabbed in the arm and chest (some blood). Lots of face punches, face slaps, lots of falls and chases (usually being shot at the same time). Lots of fights with punches, kicks, being hit with objects and being thrown around; usually the fights are unfair (many against one or few). Lots of martial arts fighting with kicks, twirls and punches.

LANGUAGE 3 - Many mild obscenities and an anatomical reference.

DISCUSSION TOPICS - Terrorism, the media and media barons, super sleuths.

MESSAGE - Bond always gets his man.

CAVEATS

Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.

We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.

Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
