Why did they put this aweful remake of THUNDERBALL on BLU-RAY when YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE and DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER havent been released yet on BLU-RAY who runs this video company JEFF ZUCKER.
A very good movie.With the blu ray I wanted to point out that it looks vastly superior to the original released dvd, yet doesn't shine the way modern Blu-ray movies do, not that it is expected. I liked that the movie doesn't take itself too seriously, and prefer that Bonds age was embraced rather than ignored. I've always like Never Say Never Again, though I acknowledge its flaws. I also rather enjoyed the special features, though wish sean connery himself was interviewed. I liked the way the movie poked fun at the conventions of a bond movie while using them, and frankly loved seeing connery as bond again. While I won't pretend it was the trendsetter of goldfinger or thunderball (of which it was based), I was far more entertained with it than You only live twice. Overall, I can't imagine a better way to enjoy this movie, and if your a bond fan at all, it should be in your collection. Recomended.
I'm glad it was made, but sad it wasnt put in the box sets. Good quality. It matches well with the 3 box sets I have of all the other bond movies. I understand why.but whatever. Still good stuff.
do it just one last time with class when Moore portrayed a buffoon in the same year. It's great to get a beautiful transfer of the movie that will last beyond my life to boot.
The script was lifted from Thunderball. This is the worst of the entire series. The James Bond movies constitute one of the greatest movie franchises in history. The gimicks and gadgets weren't terribly creative.Still, it moves at a good pace, the jokes are OK, the villians are fairly sinister, Kim Basinger gives a passable performance, and if you're not comparing it to other Bond films, it is pretty good.Even at its worst, Bond is still better than most.E. This being said, it is still pretty good. Sean Connery was at an all time low between his fit and smart-aleck youth and his suave, poised maturity. M. Van Court
