Story

Een knallende confrontatie in de gedemilitariseerde zone tussen Noord- en Zuid-Korea. Een sensationele en supersnelle achtervolging met hovercrafts. Een exploderend mijnenveld... Bonds missie - de ontmaskering van een verrader en het voorkomen van een oorlog met catastrofale gevolgen - voert hem via Hongkong naar Cuba en Londen. Het is een levensgevaarlijke missie, waarin hij niet alleen geholpen, maar vooral ook gehinderd wordt door twee mysterieuze schoonheden. Totdat hij op wel heel persoonlijke wijze kennismaakt met de kracht van een nieuw en verbijsterend wapen. Halle Berry en Rosamund Pike zijn de Bondgirls van dienst.
