The James Bond movies quickly became popular. There were complications to getting Thunderball made because of issues with the rights to the story. Those issues eventually led to ...
Pros: Plenty of action and a treat for folks who missed Sean Connery as Bond. Cons: Was it really necessary to update Thunderball? The bed-hopping is no longer believable
I know a lot of critics absolutely hate this film, and I understand why. However, I can't help but enjoy this film and pop it in the ol' DVD player from time to time. While it's exploitative and hardly necessary, it's still a film that fits in well in...
Pros: Brandauer as Largo, Carrera as Fatima Blush, scrumptious Kim Basinger, actual character development, antiquarian theme Cons: Tired looking Sean Connery, impostors in recurrent roles, weak score

Pros: Directed by the same guy who did Empire Strikes Back Cons: Not enough Bond stuff
Never Say Never Again marks the return of Sean Connery to the James Bond character. In this film, Bond is called out of a sort of retirement to investigate a millionaire who has stolen two nuclear missiles and plans to use them in a way spoofed by...
Pros: Sean Connery, Barbara Carrera and the motorcycle chase sequence Cons: Everything else...
After years in court, Thunderball co-author Kevin McClory won the right to make his own James Bond film outside MGM/United Artists and Eon Productions. However, the catch was it could only be a remake of Thunderball. On board along with ...
Pros: Sean Connery,James Bond Cons: Everything Else

Pros: Good actors, beautiful women Cons: not as much action
