Thunder!...Thunder!...Thunderball!!! Several years in the making, Thunderball delivers the ultimate Bond adventure. SPECTRE returns to ransom two stolen nuclear missiles for 100 million pounds sterling, and it's up to James Bond to save the world. This time the stakes are global, and the fight scenes are more elaborate and intense; such as the underwater action sequences. Additionally, the directing is especially well-done; making for spectacle visuals and suspenseful drama. Thunderball is an action packed thriller that finds James Bond at his best.

Thunderball, being my least favourite Sean Connery era James Bond, is not a bad movie, but it lacks severely in pacing. Most of that comes down to those gorgeous, but so incredibly slow, underwater scenes. They tend to drag on and that ends up hurting the flow of the movie. Thank God we have all the eye candy. Thunderball is filled to the brim with incredibly beautiful women and makes it a tolerable watch...for those of us that lean that way of course.

The further we get into the Sean Connery era, the more just average it is. Cheesier, more "James Bond-y", and is a decent watch. Certainly not one I would recommend getting people into Bond or show them what the old school movies were like. It is still a good movie; it is just average compared to the ones that came before. Rating: 2.5/5 - 70% - Worth Watching

After a couple atomic bombs are stolen from the RAF, agent 007 (Sean Connery) travels to Nassau, Bahamas, to clash with SPECTRE agent Emil Largo (Adolfo Celi) and his femme fatale accomplice (Luciana Paluzzi). Claudine Auger is on ha More

Whilst he isn't quite as megalomaniac as "Auric Goldfinger"; Adolfo Celi is great here as "Largo" - the Spectre agent charged with their most ambitious mission yet. A great deal of meticulous planning has gone into their scheme to hijack an RAF plane carrying nuclear missiles that they intend to bla More

Thunderball is definitely one of the worst Bond films, after the 1st act nothing exciting happens and it is rather boring.

**Thunderball goes all out, taking James Bond to new heights (and depths) with bigger action sequences, new gadgets, deadly villains, and beautiful locations. Thunderball is peak 60s Bond!**

Thunderball is my favorite of Sean Connery’s James Bond films. How could it not be? With the Bond formul More
