Editorial Review: Amazon.com: James Bond's fourth adventure takes him to the Bahamas, where a NATO warplane with a nuclear payload has disappeared into the sea. Bond (Sean Connery) travels from a tony health spa (where he tangles with a mechanized masseuse run amuck) to the casinos of Nassau and soon picks up the trail of SPECTRE's number-two man, Emilio Largo (Adolfo Celi), and his beautiful mistress, Domino (Claudine Auger), whom Bond soon seduces to his side. Equipped with more gadgets than ever, courtesy of the resourceful "Q" (Desmond Llewelyn), agent 007 escapes an ambush with a personal-size jet pack and takes to the water as he searches for the undersea plane, battles Largo's pet sharks, and finally leads the battle against Largo's scuba-equipped henchmen in a spectacular underwater climax. This thrilling Bond entry became Connery's most successful outing in the series and was remade in 1983 as Never Say Never Again, with Connery returning to the role after a 12-year hiatus. Tom Jones belts out the bold theme song to another classic Maurice Binder title sequence. --Sean Axmaker Average Rating:
 Rating:  - And the Winner is-Thunderball!Unquestionably the best film in the series. A plot that centers upon nuclear hijacking is more compelling, and even more contemporary in 2008 than it was when the film was originally released. Sean Connery is at his best. The film has just the right amount of gadgetry-miniaturized homing devices, etc, without bordering on the ridiculous. The locales are exotic. Italian actor Adolfo Celli is suberb as the cruel villian Largo. And what more can be said about redhead Lucianna Palluzzi! This is ...

Rating: - Thunderball - with Sean Connery as James BondThis now completes my James Bond trilogy of the Bond films with Sean Connery in Blu-Ray. Which includes Dr No, From Russia With Love, and Thunderball. These were what I consider 'the' Bond films, as Connery was, and will always be, James Bond. In Blu-Ray they are better than when I saw them at the theater when they were first released. Freaking awesome. Rating: - Still strong after 43 yearsAfter the success of Goldfinger, considerable resources were used to produce the next James Bond film, Thunderball. I was in the 8th grade when the film was released in 1965 and there was tremendous cultural excitment arouind the film with magazines like GQ and Esquire promoting the film with flashy articles. Now seeing the film 43 years later I remember just what a good film Thunderball really is. Sean Connery will always be the perfect James Bond. In comparison to the thin fellows ...
