Movie Reviews of Thunderball

Movie Review: The Biggest Bond of All
Summary: 5 Stars

I was around for this Bond films original release, you cannot imagine the excitement it engendered. Multiply this summer's excitement over "The Dark Knight" by 2. In terms of 1965 dollars, it is still the highest-grossing Bond. People were waiting out in the December cold at 8am in the morning the day it opened. Like Goldfinger before it, it played at various theaters 24 hours a day. Tons of merchandising were created for this film. I can still remember the excitement 43 years later.
Connery is at his coolest in this film, the direction by Terrence Young, (the director of Dr. No and FRWL,) is terrific and this film still has the greatest underwater fight scene ever done. (Compare it to the absolutely mediocre remake Never Say Never Again.)
A true Bond classic and one of my ten favorite Bond films.

Summary of Thunderball

James Bond's fourth adventure takes him to the Bahamas, where a NATO warplane with a nuclear payload has disappeared into the sea. Bond (Sean Connery) travels from a tony health spa (where he tangles with a mechanized masseuse run amuck) to the casinos of Nassau and soon picks up the trail of SPECTRE's number-two man, Emilio Largo (Adolfo Celi), and his beautiful mistress, Domino (Claudine Auger), whom Bond soon seduces to his side. Equipped with more gadgets than ever, courtesy of the resourceful "Q" (Desmond Llewelyn), agent 007 escapes an ambush with a personal-size jet pack and takes to the water as he searches for the undersea plane, battles Largo's pet sharks, and finally leads the battle against Largo's scuba-equipped henchmen in a spectacular underwater climax. This thrilling Bond entry became Connery's most successful outing in the series and was remade in 1983 as Never Say Never Again, with Connery returning to the role after a 12-year hiatus. Tom Jones belts out the bold theme song to another classic Maurice Binder title sequence. --Sean Axmaker
