I appreciate the lack of graphic violence and misogyny, and even the racism was kept to a minimum.  So not bad for James Bond.  Note that I tuned out before most of the name performers showed up.  Lee Tamahori directed this the year after the abysmal Along Came a Spider.

This is just dreadful and is only saved from an F because I laughed my head off for over a minute at poor Freeman's line, "Vickie, forgiving yourself is the one thing no one can do for themselves."  Then Vickie just gives him a look like she wishes she was back on Amen.  The movie is based on the James Patterson novel and directed with a sledgehammer by Lee Tamahori.  And, no, I haven't seen Kiss the Girls, its predecessor.
