Bond Returns From the Dead in You Only Live Twice

by dragonfire88 dragonfire88 is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Sep 20 '08
Pros: Another entertaining movie in the Bond series.
Cons: Some slower spots. Connery didn't seem as connected to the part.
The first four James Bond movies were very popular, so the producers wanted to continue making the movies even though Sean Connery was starting to get tired of playing Bond. He actually announced during filming that You Only Live Twice ...

You Only Live Twice - James Bond #5

by AliventiAsylum AliventiAsylum is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Movies, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Dec 10 '07
Pros: beautiful setting, plenty of action, good performances by new actors
Cons: Connery lackluster, plot highly unbelievable
The most surprising fact I found out about the fifth entry in the James Bond series was that the screenplay for You Only Live Twice was written by noted children’s author Roald Dahl. Although his novels aren’t what I would call ...

For a European, You're Exceptionally Cultured

by metalluk Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Nov 25 '05
Pros: Japanese cultural atmosphere; Pleasence, Tamba and Akiko Wakabayashi; Ninja raid; volcanic lair; great score
Cons: Weak henchmen and henchwomen; weak second Bond girl; passive Bond
After the preceding Bond film T hunderball, there was the distinct possibility that the producer of the Bond series, Eon Productions, might scuttle the series. Instead, they called in director Lewis Gilbert, fresh off ...

See it more than just twice

by truckturner , Mar 25 '04
Pros: Connery, Pleasence, Sets, Song, story, pace
Cons: Karin Dor, misogyny
I’m no die-hard Bond fan, as I’ve probably mentioned before, but it really is true, despite the fact that I’ve seen all of the films and own several on video. There are some that I like, and then the rest are varying degrees of forgettable ...

Under the Volcano: Bondo-san goes to Japan in the extravagant film of all

by actonsteve , Jul 15 '03
Pros: The volcano finale, Japanese locations, Donald Pleasance as Blofeld, Nancy Sinatra's song
Cons: Sean Connery looks tediously bored, he didn't want to be there and it shows
If you don't enjoy 'You Only Live Twice' then you can't enjoy movies... After 'The Man with the Golden Gun' this is the most exotic of the Bond films, and is mostly famous for the Japanese locations, the volcano finale and the introduction of Bond's ne ...

James and the Giant Volcano

by Guildencrantz Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Dec 17 '00
Pros: Blofeld makes a great villain. There is an amazing grandeur to this film.
Cons: The lava scenes are just horrendous, but there are only a few of them.
With the fifth movie in the Bond series Connery is stunning as always, but the character of Bond must find another adventure. Given the world as his playground it shouldn't be too hard to find some trouble, but he must also out do his earlier movies....

Other Bond Movies Are Better; Other Bond Movies Are Worse

by neomartin , Jul 27 '01
Pros: Exposure to Japanese culture; Q's grand "gadget"; ninjas to the rescue
Cons: Cosmetic or plastic surgery done on James Bond
One reason Sean Connery is considered by many people (including me) to be the best James Bond is because at the time the Bond movies were being made in the 1960s the movies were pretty close to the books. Having read Dr. No, Goldfinger,...

Not One of Bond's Best

by lskrzyniarz , Dec 05 '00
Pros: Connery, great art direction and action sequences.,
Cons: Silly plot, so-so ending.
Now that all the Bond films are out on DVD, I'm beginning to catch up on the trials and tribulations of everyone's favorite secret agent. Since I find Sean Connery the most attractive of the actors to play Bond, I've started with his forays into the...

You'll Only Watch Once

by Diversity646 , Nov 13 '99
Pros: Sean Connery, arguably the best James Bond
Cons: Horrible plot...cheesy special effects...bad casting
Sometimes it's very difficult to take James Bond seriously...

Take this movie, the fifth in the popular series of films from Albert Broccoli. James Bond must stop the evil Ernst Stavro Blofeld (Donald Pleasance) before he and his megalomaniacal...

Well, Well, Mr. Bigglesworth . . .

by Booms729 , Nov 30 '00
Pros: A Classic? Scenes You Remember
Cons: A Mockery of A Bond movie
CONNERY IS BOND. Whenever I talk about James Bond films, all anyone ever says is Connery is the greatest Bond. Being the first Bond certainly has given Sean Connery his place in Bond and film history, as well as everyone identifying to the Bond...
