Thunderball Written Review

Genre: Action
Director: Terence Young
Format that I've seen: blu-ray
Studio: Metro Goldwyn Mayer
MPAA: PG
Runtime: 130 minutes

Sean Connery IS BACK AS JAMES BOND!!!!!!!!!!! (BTW I had post videos of the 1st three movies so definitely go check them out) The suave super secret agent who is licence to kill. This time, his adventure takes him all the way in NASSAU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The film begins as James Bond attends a funeral and on the coffin it is written JB (for Jacques Bouvar) after an intense fight, credits roll for one of my favorite songs, THUNDERBALL SUNG BY TOM JONES!!!!!!!! After that,  the next half hour or so is James being goofy in a health clinic. While James Bond is F*king with someone. A murder is involved, FRANCOIS DERVAL!!!!! But Count Lippe had plastic surgery to replace him. And the real body is in the clinic that James is staying in and it gets confusing. M (Bernard Lee) wants bond on another case but he wants to go to Nassau because the sibling of Francois is a woman (an ugly one) YUCK!!!!!!!! So then he goes to Nassau and meets Largo (Adolfo Celi who's awesome in his performance) We also get a bland Felix Leiter (Rik Van Nutter).

Look the plot gets sooooo confusing. TOO MUCH SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!

Thunderball has some of the best underwater cinematography EVER!!!!!!!
For an action film, it is so/so with action and talking. There is in fact, a lot of talking involved and the action scenes are extremely short. Some woman are hot including Luciana Paluzzi, Martine Beswick and Molly Peters, they are so hot I wish they had more screen time. The main bond girl is UGLY!!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOD!!!!!!! IT'S NOT POSSIBLE!!!!!!! SO UGLY!!!!!!!!!!

Overall the film is Kick-ass with a good blend of action and talking.

ANOTHER 5/5
VID REVIEW COMING UP!!!
