One of the worst movies I've ever seen

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

For those keeping track, James Bond gets it on with 4 women in this movie. Or maybe only 3, it's a little vague, but I totally got to believe he's doing his hot Asian assistant, so I'm going with 4. Anyway that puts his total bed post notches for the first 4 movies at 14. Hope this guy is using protection.

This is the fourth of the James Bond, 007 action, spy and mystery series. Sean Connery continues the role, but with much more gadgetry. The character "Q" is now firmly established, and fans will look eagerly for his latest novelty items that will save Bond's life one way or another. Also, Bond's affiliation with a regular CIA character is being cemented, with Felix Leiter. There will be as many different actors to play Felix as there will be Bonds in the future. "Thunderball" was filmed in more than 40 locations in the Bahamas, France, England, and the U.S. Great scenery, glamorous settings and the playgrounds of the rich and famous are beginning to occupy most of the Bond films now. In this film, Bond has to track down a British Vulcan jet that disappeared with two A-bombs and a NATO adviser on board. The dastardly evil SPECTRE blackmails Great Britain and the U.S. for $280 million. Pay up, or lose a big city in one of the countries. It's a race against time, and our man with a nose for where the culprit hides out is on top of things soon. (No pun intended for those with such minds).Another trait is emerging in the series too – the death of one of the beautiful women who enter Bond's world. Most often it's an attractive assistant (as here with Paula, played by Martine Beswick). But sometimes it's another friend or acquaintance. Most in the audience probably don't feel too bad when one of those who die is a deadly femme fatale. That happens here as well, with SPECTRE agent Fiona, played by Luciana Paluzzi. This film has some nice action with very good underwater scenes and what are probably Navy frogmen parachuting to land in the ocean and do battle underwater. The tear-away yacht was a nice touch for some action. Of course, when Bond is through with this bunch, SPECTRE will have to find a new number 2, to replace Largo (Adolfo Celi). One thing one can say about SPECTRE – it demands total loyalty and sacrifice, but considers all of its people expendable. It literally feeds them to the sharks. This is a very entertaining James Bond flick.

This is the fourth entry in the James Bond series, and this timearound Bond once again finds himself squaring off against international criminal organization S.P.E.C.T.R.E.- specifically their member Emilio Largo- an eye patch wearing nut job who drops enemies and ineffectual henchman into a tank full of hungry sharks. Largo has hijacked a NATO nuclear bomber and hidden the bombs in the ocean depths. He gives the British government one week to pay him a ransom of 1,000,000 pounds or else he'll launch the weapons. Well, it doesn't take long before Bonds sets of for Nassau to foil this diabolical plot, and he's get a few beautiful woman to accompany him along the way. This is a fun one. It's Connery (once again), and, while he's not as strong as he was in the previous two entries, he's still quite strong here, and very comfortable with the role. It's a solid film, but maybe one of my least favorite of the Connery era. It's not a bad movie, just not quite as exciting as some of the others. It's a bit goofy, but I think it really only adds to the charm. Plus, we get some great underwater scenes, and those are quite well done, especially for the time period. Those are some of the best parts, but the cinematography in general is quite good, and there's some okay land sequences as well. With a decent title theme from Tom Jones, a fine score in general, and an entertaining title sequence, this is a really fun movie, and a decent entry in the long running series. Give it a go.

"Bond.. James Bond.""I never work out, have a hairy chest, going bald on my head, skinny and lanky and abuse women by slapping them around, hitting them and is a general male chauvinistic and misogynist pig. Yet all the women WANT me!"This movie is more fantasy than Lord of the Rings.Sean Connery WISHES he was James Bond in real life. He "ain't".What a horrible, narcissistic, ridiculous and over pretentious film from beginning to end.I actually enjoyed the film "From Russia with Love" but this trash deserves a low of a score as possible.
