Review of Thunderball (1965) by Lewis C — 21 Apr 2011
The fourth Bond film features some impressive underwater action scenes, a meandering and somewhat forgettable plot, probably the most ludicrous love scene in the entire series, and some A+ Bond Girls, including Claudine Auger, Luciana Paluzzi, and Martine Beswick.
The story finds Bond in the beautiful Bahamas, where he's searching for a pair of nukes that SPECTRE is using to blackmail the U.S. and Great Britain. It's not one of my favorite Bond movies, but it's certainly not a bad one. It's worth seeing for at least Domino, Fiona Volpe, and the lengthy battle scenes beneath the ocean.
