Directed by: Lee Tamahori
Starring: Pierce Brosnan, John Cleese, Halle Berry, Judi Dench, Rosamund Pike, Toby Stephens, Colin Salmon, Rick Yune
Gustav Graves is really the North Korean colonel who supposedly died at the beginning and he has developed Icarus to destroy the demilitarized zone so that North Korea can take over South Korea. Bond learns that Miranda Frost is a double agent working with Graves. Bond never revealed any information during that heavy duty torture we see at the beginning of the movie. Bond kills Graves, while Jinx (Halle Berry) kills Frost. Of course, Bond and Jinx end up together.

Continuity mistake: When Jinx and Bond sneak onto Graves' plane, Jinx can be seen with a nickel-plated pistol (this is also evident throughout the entire film). Yet, when Jinx is in the cockpit and Frost tells her to hand over the gun, it's now no longer nickel-plated but standard gunmetal black. (01:52:20)
James Bond: Vodka martini, plenty of ice... If you can spare it.
Trivia: This is Pierce Brosnan's least favourite Bond movie of the four in which he appeared. Brosnan disliked the over-the-top special effects and gadgets, and suggested to the producers that the follow-up should be dark and gritty. After Brosnan left, the series was indeed given a grittier reboot.
Question: In "The World Is Not Enough" Bond, using his intuition, correctly assessed that Elektra King had sided with the villain. So why did he never suspect for a second that Miranda Frost had done the same in this film?

Answer: Bond's suspicions about Elektra King were triggered by his discovery that her head of security, Davidov, was working with Renard. With Miranda Frost, there was nothing that would have led Bond to believe she was a double agent working for Graves/Moon in any capacity other than her undercover MI6 assignment.
