Review of Never Say Never Again (1983) by Jami L — 05 Mar 2009
I am really glad that Sean Connery made this aptly named film, after stating that he wouldn't do another 007 film.
Never Say Never Again was Connery's first Bond film since 1971's Diamonds Are Forever, when he hung up the spy suit, and was replaced by Roger Moore.
The story in this film isn't the best. But, it does have Kim Basinger looking beautiful as Bond girl Domino Petachi.
I am a fan of scuba diving, and I love the water, so that was another element of this film that I enjoyed. Besides, in how many other films do you get to see the leading man make love to a woman, only to have that woman slip a tracking device into his wetsuit for her sonar enabled shark to attack? Classic. I had a little Dr. Evil moment while watching that and had a laugh. "All I wanted was frickin sharks with frickin laser beams attached to their heads.".
In my opinion Sean Connery is hands down the best and coolest James Bond, the original.
