Chicago Sun-Times
There's a high gloss and some nice payoffs, but not quite as much humor as usual; Bond seems to be straying from his tongue-in-cheek origins into the realm of conventional techno-thrillers. - 75
ReelViews
Tomorrow Never Dies is a better film than Goldeneye. In fact, it's the best Bond film in many years. - 75
San Francisco Chronicle
If the formula seems a little tired, it still has more sophistication and pizzazz than most action films. - 67
Austin Chronicle
It's far from unenjoyable, but the dank shroud of the overfamiliar lies heavy over all, kind of like watching an Elvis concert circa 1976. - 60
Los Angeles Times
Veteran director Roger Spottiswoode has tried to pep the old warhorse up, but the combined inertia of all those pictures over 35 years proves hard to budge. - 50
New York Magazine (Vulture)
If more can't be found in Bond than this, I wouldn't object, in principle, to that tuxedo's being hung up in the closet for good. - 50
Salon
The movie is efficient but scores zero in suspense, wit or class. - 50
San Francisco Examiner
What's pleasing about this movie is its enduring adherence to the Bondian ideal.
