8. Why Not Just Buy A Mine Sweeper? - Die Another Day
The Plot: Unite North and South Korea under the North's control by using a laser in space to wipe out a deadly minefield keeping them apart. Pierce Brosnan's swansong to the Bond franchise is as uneven as it gets, from a cast that brings together John Cleese, Madonna and Michael Madsen to a far-fetched plot involving an off-the-wall North Korean villain who has a 'gene therapy' DNA transplant to disguise himself as playboy Brit Gustav Graves. It all begs the question: why bother going to those lengths of concealment only to blow your own cover by making grand entrances by parachute and residing in an ice palace? The whole idea of a military man going to such extreme lengths to take out a minefield is almost insultingly ridiculous. Surely a battle-hardened warmonger could find a more direct path through a fairly standard defence. Or a mine detector. There's also an invisible car and some dodgy CGI to further derail anything resembling conventional logic a chance to shine through in Die Another Day a film so dodgy that even Roger Moore went on record saying that the film was too ludicrous for his tastes. And that's from the man who took Bond into space.
