Binding: VHS Tape EAN: 9786302380583 Format: Closed-captioned, Color, NTSC ISBN: 6302380588 Label: MGM (Video & DVD) Languages: Manufacturer: MGM (Video & DVD) Number Of Items: 1 Publisher: MGM (Video & DVD) Release Date: October 17, 2000 Running Time: 127 minutes Studio: MGM (Video & DVD) Theatrical Release Date: June 13, 1967 Editorial Review: Amazon.com: The film boasts the best of the Bond title songs (this one sung on a dreamy track by Nancy Sinatra), but the movie itself is one of the weaker ones of the Sean Connery phase of the 007 franchise. The story concerns an effort by the evil organization SPECTRE to start a world war, but the not-so-super villain behind the plot is the awfully civilized Donald Pleasence. The thin script is by Roald Dahl (shouldn't we have expected a better Bond nemesis from the creator of mad genius Willy Wonka?), and direction is by British veteran Lewis Gilbert (Alfie). But the movie can't hold a candle to Dr. No, From Russia with Love, or Goldfinger. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:
 Rating: - This is the BEST BOND EVER!No doubt about it. This is the quintessiential Bond flick. Why? Because it delivers action packed excitement, torrid romance, a very exotic locale and perhaps the greatest Bond theme song ever. The movie pulls you in and you can't turn it off!

(Sir) Sean Connery made six EON (or "official") movies with him starring as James Bond. They were: (1) Dr. No (1962) (2) From Russia with Love (1963) (3) Goldfinger (1964) (4) Thunderball (1965) (5) You Only Live Twice (1967) and (6) Diamonds are Forever (1971). As you can see from the above list, this movie is the fifth spy film of the British ...

But in this case the series seemed to get better in the last couple of books. Bond is falling apart mentally and on the verge of losing his job, allowing Fleming to show the human side of a secret agent. One of my favorite Bond books. Rating: - Sizzling bond thriller from 1967, set in JapanAfter James Bond (Sean Connery) has participated in faking his own murder in Hong Kong, to give him "more elbow room" in the words of his superior, M (Bernard Lee), he is dispatched to Japan to investigate the mysterious disappearance of both American and Soviet space crafts which threatens to spark World War III. Working together with Japanese secret service leader Tiger Tanaka (Tetsuro Tamba), he meets beautiful Japanese agent Aki (Akiko Wakabayashi), who helps Bond through several close ... Read More |
