Thunderball

c'mon -- its Connery!

Members of the cast and crew were interviewed several times about this movie while it was being shot, due to the immense popularity of the Bond film franchise. Sir Sean Connery, however, consented to just one interview, and it was with Playboy Magazine.

One of the better Bonds :)

The plot is memorable in itself and plenty of elements people associate with classic Bond movies. Some of the investigating was interesting too. There was however the question of the underwater scenes: they were great feat of cinematography back then, with impressive amount of complicated footage. But to the average viewer, it can grow tedious and slow, especially since the underwater scenes are plural and many and so lose their novelty

This is in my top three Bond films for sure. Domino is kind of spineless but she steps it up.

I LOVE THIS FILM FROM MY CHILDHOOD

Parts of Thunderball still hold up, but not the action at the end of the film.

One of the best of the early Bond movies. Thunderball has some of the cooler gadgets and a great bad guy.

A quarter of the film is underwater. There are so many complicated submarine sequences it feels like a long episode of Stingray. This would be fine but water slows things down and Thunderball makes no effort to escape this fact. These parts seem to last forever and it's difficult to tell what the fuck is going on.

Not as memorable as the previous Bond movie. I liked the plot and the characters in this one. It's a bit more slow paced, however. Great action scenes.

The opening scene with the jetpack is delicious post-Goldfinger Bond camp. The rest of the film is bafflingly boring with its painfully long and sluggish underwater scenes and three Bond girls who all look like the same girl in a different wig. (2/5)

it feels like an hour of this film is underwater

An exciting James Bond adventure.

Would have gotten a higher rating if it weren't for the last 5 minutes. Woof.

While I won't argue that this bond flick is a standout champion, one cannot deny that, given how many reference I've seen to this movie in parodies and what not, this film is somewhat of a landmark.

James Bond movies are always fun to watch if you're in a secret agent mood.
