Nice seeing Connery again, but disappointing October 25, 1999
Chris (Canada)
Re-tread of Thunderball is actually slower than Thunderball, which is amazing. Max von Sydow makes an okay Blofeld. The main villain is actually better than Celi in the original and Connery is his usual great Bond self. But movie has a few odd moments, like the video game battle between Bond and the villain.
 GREAT MOVIE! October 19, 1999

It has a stupid title. but honestly I think its better than the origional Thunderball. Actually its a remake of it. Kim Basinger did a wonderful job as "Domino". I liked how the director toyed with the fact that James Bond is older than he was in the 60's. It all together turned out to be a wild, thrilling, action packed Connery film.
Never Say Never Again is a Bond film. October 17, 1999

Never Say Never Again is essentially a remake of Thunderball. Same story line, cast names (mostly), same basic idea. Except truly the films are totally different. Connery returns as James Bond for the finally time, and with him he brought a film which has been widely criticized as being a bad example for a James Bond film. How can you have a James Bond film without a James Bond Theme or an opening gun barrel? They could at least have had an opening cross hair or a pre-title sequence. When you look at it, many consider it an action film starring Sean Connery, whose name happens to be James Bond. Never Say Never Again is an interesting film to see, unfortunately, currently, those who haven't seen it probably won't. The history of the film goes back to the 1950's when Bond author Ian Fleming teamed up with Kevin McClory to work on a screenplay. The screenplay never fell through, so Ian Fleming took the ideas from the screenplay and wrote the novel Thunderball. Kevin McClory saw a version of the novel, sued and eventually won the rights to the book. McClory then teamed up with Albert R. Broccoli and Harry Saltzman to produce the film Thunderball. The terms would be that McClory would give up his rights for 10 years and he would then be allowed to remake the film. 18 years later Never Say Never Again was born So that is why Never Say Never Again is like that. Why it is so different from the other Bond films. 007 fans are split in half when it comes to accepting or not accepting it in the Bond family. The future of Never Say Never Again lies in the hands of MGM now. So it is up to them weather or not it will ever see the light of day Again. I ask that MGM strongly look into re-releasing this title. What better way to get back at McClory then to make money off of something he fought so hard to make. Also Kevin McClory I think you should put to rest your future Bond plans. You had your chance to make a Bond film, you did it, its over. Stop fighting so hard and enjoy the Bond films that are coming out. Come on re-release this title.
 The Best Bond Ever Made! September 23, 1999

I don't consider NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN as a remake of THUNDERBALL., This movie not at all represent #4(T)in the bond series. It is instead an excelent return of Connery to the role of James Bond in a unique, great Bond adventure...The Best Bond Ever!
