When Q (John Cleese) walks behind the invisible Aston Martin in the otherwise abandoned underground station, due to the light refraction effect, he appears briefly to do a "silly walk", a reference to a sketch that Cleese did for Monty Python's Flying Circus (1969). See more »

In the virtual reality headset simulation, the virtual reality action scene should be visible from a first-person perspective. In spite of this, the scene is filmed in third-person perspective, with the user visible. Given that no other James Bond movie has ever had a view from his perspective, and given that we would only be able to see a narrow vision and not what he's sensing around him, it's perfectly explainable that they chose to see what Bond was doing at the time and not just from his point of view.

Of the four Brosnan Bond-films, this is by far the worst. The story is so stupid that you just don't care. Sure, Bond has always been more or less silly, (possibly except Dalton's films), but this looks more like a rejected Batman & Robin script. The filmmakers aren't even trying to base the film in real life anymore, (dna manipulation and invisible cars!?!). Instead, the attention is focused on mindless action scenes with seriously crappy CGI and effects.
Moreover, the film looks awful, the dialogue consists of bad one liners and lame sexual innuendos, and the acting belongs in a made for TV movie, (Halle Berry is especially bad). Die Another Day easily qualifies as one of the worst films I've ever seen. James Bond has definitely passed his sell-by-date.
