Remake better than Thunderball -- but... August 7, 2007
senior heroine (mt. orb)
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
While this remake of Thunderball is better in story development and action than the original, it lacks the technical genius of the Broccoli films. Kim Basinger can't act, can't dance, and is having a bad hair day throughout the movie. On the other hand Barbara Carrera is one of the great Bond villians. More importantly, like they said way back in the sixties -- Sean Connery IS James Bond and that's never changed.
 Worst Bond Film ever June 25, 2007

While watching this film I was disgusted, not only was it a blatent rip-off of Thunderball, but they tried to be funny in this movie, which in my opinion they completely failed, if you are thinking about buying this movie, I would rent it first. This movie may appeal to some, but thank God I saw it on TV, because if I would have bought this movie I would have been even sicker than I was after watching this travesty. You have me correct this movie made me sick, now all may not feel the same as I, but if you are thinking about buying this movie, and you haven't seen it yet. I would suggest renting, though if you really like the movie, or you are a completest, Bond fan, well then go for it. Though in my opinion, this is the worst Bond movie I've seen, especially the worst Sean Connery "Bond" film I've seen. Though I must say Kim Basinger was very hot. So I leave the decision up to you.

As much as I liked Connery as Bond, I just didn't like this movie.
DOWN WITH REMAKES! May 27, 2007

I've never been a big fan of remakes. It seems to be particularly annoying with this one, since the main actor was also the one who starred in the original. This would seem to make re-hashing this movie a pointless endeavour. Why not just watch the original? I find it hard to believe that so many other reviewers have said this is a good movie.
 Bond Fans will Enjoy This Movie May 23, 2007
GameraRocks (Gillsville, GA USA)

Even though it isn't officially part of the Bond series as far as canon is concerned, "Never Say Never Again" is still a solid Bond film that all fans need to buy if they have never seen it and want their collection complete. Sean Connery, who is actually younger than Roger Moor who was doing Octopussy at the same time, shows that he is Bond and no one can play that character the way he does. The only thing this movie doesn't is other familiar actors known in the Bond series, different people playing Moneypenny, M, Q and the first African American to play Felix (Casino Royale wasn't the first) is seen in this movie.
There are a few future stars in this film, mainly the sexy Kim Basinger and the funny Rowan Atkinson who would later be known as Mr. Bean! Yes, Mr. Bean is in this movie. Overall, this is fun and never loses the Bond spirit. The movie is fun, which is the intention since Sean said prior to the film that he would never play Bond again, which they joke reference at the end of the movie and were they got the title of the movie from. This is definitely worth buying, it is rarely seen on TV and won't probably ever be included in a set of Bond movies, but it is still worth buying separately.
