Thunderball, like with last week’s The Living Daylights review, is a film that covers all the typical elements we expect to see when we sit down to enjoy a James Bond movie. Except - the issue with a franchise that includes over 20 installments is that any film which steps out from the formula is naturally going to get more notice. In other words, ...
Thunderball opens on a private funeral, focusing on a draped casket with the initials “J.B.” - yet another attempt by the filmmakers to make you think James Bond is dead, if only for a moment. They pulled the same gag with the opening of From Russia With Love, showing a guy with a Sean Connery mask die at the hands of the henchman, and would go on ...
Thunderballstarts strong with a second consecutive appearance for the Aston Martin DB5. Escaping from the rooftop after handling Bouvar, Bond slips his jetpack into the trunk and makes off, activating the car’s bulletproof shield that rises out of the back of the car, and hosing down the bad guys with rear-facing water jets. He also gets a handy li...
The best aspects of Thunderballare the rich cast of characters, the beautiful locations, the enamoring music from the legendary John Barry, and the overall atmosphere of the film. Connery gives his last great appearance as James Bond, as he seemed to slowly gain weight and seem bored in his last two appearances. His lines and attitude are sharp and...
Thunderballis extremely high on many fan listings, but only comes in at number nine for me. It’s a good movie, everything is going well, but the charm wears off just at the third act. The third act, by no coincidence, happens to be when most of the underwater action takes place. Rather than just one big final underwater confrontation, we sit throug...
Thunderballis a fantastic Bond film. It’s a little more exciting and consistent in pace than Goldfingerbefore it, and more fantastical than Connery’s first two outings. The cast is great and the setting is classic Bond, whether it’s back in London in the huge halls of MI6 headquarters, or down on the beaches of the Bahamas. An uninspiring main badd...
Dec 13, 2004 · 'Thunderball' was 'the biggest Bond of all' in 1965, and, in many ways, it still is. The international crime syndicate SPECTRE ( Special Executive for Counter-Intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge & Extortion ) hijacks a Vulcan bomber during a training mission.
James Bond heads to The Bahamas to recover two nuclear warheads stolen by SPECTRE agent Emilio Largo in an international extortion scheme.

Thunderball is a 1965 spy film and the fourth in the James Bond series produced by Eon Productions, starring Sean Connery as the fictional MI6 agent James Bond.
Jun 8, 2012 · Popular on Variety. On the heels of “Goldfinger,” which supplied its villain with a virtual army of henchmen, “Thunderball” features long, dialogue-free sequences of efficient malfeasance, as...
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.
