TOMORROW NEVER DIES JAMES BOND 007

Plot - from wiki

MI6 sends James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) into the field to spy on a terrorist arms bazaar on the Russian border. Via television, MI6 and the British military identify several wanted men, including American "techno-terrorist" Henry Gupta (Ricky Jay), who is buying a GPS encoder made by the American military. Despite M's (Judi Dench) insistence that Agent 007 finish his reconnaissance, the British Admiral Roebuck (Geoffrey Palmer) launches a missile attack on the arms bazaar, planning to take advantage of the high concentration of internationally wanted terrorists and other major criminals who are "shopping" in the bazaar at the time. Bond then discovers there are two Soviet nuclear torpedoes mounted on an L-39 Albatros, the destruction of which would cause potential local radioactive contamination. Learning this, Roebuck then orders the missile to aborted, but the missile has already flown away out of the ship's range, leaving the navy unable to abort it. Fortunately, Bond hijacks the L-39 jet and flies it away from the arms bazaar, defeating a pursuing L-39 and a hostile co-pilot by ejecting the co-pilot into the other aircraft. Despite the missile destroying most of the terrorists and weaponry, Gupta escapes with the encoder.

Media baron Elliot Carver (Jonathan Pryce), head of the Carver Media Group Network (CMGN), begins his plans to use the encoder to provoke war between China and the United Kingdom. As the existing Chinese leadership is not receptive to giving Carver Media Group Network exclusive broadcast rights in their country, Carver wants to use a war to eliminate them in favor of politicians more supportive to his plans. Meaconing the GPS signal using the encoder, Gupta sends the British frigate HMS Devonshire off-course in the South China Sea, where Carver's stealth ship and its crew plan to steal a number of its missiles.[4] Carver's henchman, Stamper (Götz Otto), sinks the frigate with a sea drill and shoots down a Chinese J-7 fighter jet sent to investigate the British presence, and then the men aboard the stealth ship kill the Devonshire's survivors with Chinese weaponry. Back in London Admiral Roebuck (thinking the ship had been attacked by the Chinese, thanks to the 'news' given out by the Carver Media Group), deploys the British Fleet to recover the frigate, and possibly retaliate, leaving M only forty-eight hours to investigate its sinking.

M sends Bond to investigate Carver after Carver Media releases news with critical details hours before these have become known, and MI6 noticed a spurious signal from one of his CMGN communications satellites when the frigate was sunk. Bond travels to Hamburg and seduces Carver's wife, Paris (Teri Hatcher), an ex-girlfriend; the information she tells Bond helps him sneak into Carver's newspaper headquarters and steal back the GPS encoder. When Carver learns of it, he orders Paris and Bond killed. Paris is killed by Dr. Kaufman (Vincent Schiavelli), but Bond kills Kaufman and escapes in his Q division car, a BMW 750i with full remote control. Bond then goes to the South China Sea to investigate the wreck, discovering one of the missiles missing. He and Wai Lin (Michelle Yeoh), a Chinese spy on the same case, are captured by Stamper and taken to the CMGN tower Saigon, but they escape and begin collaborating.

They contact the Royal Navy and the People's Liberation Army Air Force (Red Chinese air force) to explain Carver's scheme, then find and board Carver's stealth ship in Ha Long Bayto prevent him firing the stolen British cruise missile at Beijing. During the battle, Wai Lin is captured. Bond captures Gupta to use as his own hostage, but Carver kills Gupta, claiming he has "outlived his contract". Bond gets them out of it by setting off an explosive, damaging part of the ship and exposing it on radar, enabling the Royal Navy to attack it, as the Red Chinese Air Force has been ordered not to fire on the steath ship unless it turns towards China. While Wai Lin heads to disable the engines, Bond leads a large battle to the stolen missile against the crew, and Stamper. Carver is killed by his own sea drill after trying to kill Bond on his own. As Bond begins to start the process of destroying the warhead by strapping the detonators to set it off, Stamper shows that he has Wai Lin hostage. A fight ensues when he tries to drown her. Bond traps him in the missile firing mechanism and leaves him to die, while saving Wai Lin as the stealth ship is destroyed by the exploding missile. Bond and Wai Lin survive amidst the wreckage as HMS Bedford searches for them.
