 Connery Is BACK!!! December 21, 2005
Jon (Loganville, GA)

Is this film a rehash of Thunderball? Yes. Are some of the effects a little cheesy? Yes. Is it considered an unofficial Bond film because of not originally being on MGM? Yes. Does any of that matter a damn when you consider that it's Sean Freakin' Connery back in the role of James Bond? ABSOLUTELY NOT! Even a not so good Connery Bond film is still better than most. This film delivers most of the things you want out of a Bond film, and the only things it doesn't are due to copyright mumbo jumbo (the most disheartening being the famous gun-hood opening and signature music being missing, and of course, the late great Desmond Llwynne not appearing as Q). Connery is lean and mean in this one, and in fact looks better than he did in Diamonds Are Forver. And beside, this film is way better than the Roger Moore film "Octopussy", which was released the same year, and for some unGodly reason did better at the box office. By this time, I think most will agree that Roger Moore was begining to wear out his welcome, and so (since it would be a few more years before the great Timothy Dalton made the role his own) it was a great time for Sir Sean to come back one more time and remind us what James Bond is all about! Cars! Women! Collateral Damage!! And honestly, I don't think anybody who wasn't told previously would have ever even known that this wasn't and official Bond flick. Watch for a small role played by a young, pre-Mr. Bean Rowan Atkinson!

This movie is not recognised as a James Bond film. But it is a great movie as it slots into all the other James Bond films. ENJOY
 Fantastic dialog September 18, 2005

Small Fawcett: Im sorry Mr.Bond, I obviously caught you at a bad moment.
Bond: M. sent you!
Small Fawcett: Only to plead for your return. Sir. M. says that without you in the service, he fears for the security of the civilized world.
Bond: Never Again.
Domino Petachi: Never?

Nurse: Mr.Bond I need a [...] sample if you could fill this beaker for me?
Bond: From Here?
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Fatima Blush: Write this: " The Greatest rapture of my life was afforded me on a boat in Nassau by Fatima Blush" and sign it "James Bond, 007"
Bond: I just remembered it is against Service policy to give endorsements.

Great stuff, Where are these kind of writers today?

Aside from the spoofs and ripoffs, there are 20 official Bond movies and one unofficial. Never Say Never Again is no more than a warmed over Thunderball and its actually not half bad. The script and direction are extremely weak. However, NSNA is surprisingly well cast with Connery (in his 50's), Kim Bassinger, Barbara Carrera, Bernie Casey, Klaus Maria Brandauer, Edward Fox, Pat Roach, Rowan Atkinson and even Max Von Sydow. The locations are beautiful and the action is very enjoyable in an early 80's action sort of way. Its all in good fun and no real effort is made to make it live up to the official series' lofty production values.
Ok remake of Thunderball August 19, 2005

Connery will still always be the original James Bond. He looked good at age 53 and still has it! I thought Bernie Casey was a good Felix Leiter. The locations are excellent and so it the action. I only gave it four stars because I thought that Kim Basinger was a horrible Bond girl. It has it's issues, but a good unofficial Bond Film.
