This movie is garbage, anyone agree?


Kim Basinger is bad, Sean Connerey phones in his performance, the villians are good but the pacing is slow and boring, the effects are terrible, not too mention the cheesy scene where Bond plays the video game against the villian which shocks you if you lose. Instead of a casino he had a big arcade room? what the hell?! What was so bad about Thunderball anyway? Leave well enough alone. I would've rather have had George Lazenby in this one. Also, it dosen't even have the gunbarrell credits!!!! The Motorcycle chase was cool, but instead of the Bond theme, you get a lame elevator music jazz score playing over it. If this WAS an official 007, I'd put it in the same class as Moonraker or Diamonds are Forever. CRAP tastic

i agree

saw it last night and have to say it's one of the worst bonds ever

plus connery is just old and sad and desperately trying to regain some of his long lost youth by all that womanising and riding his motorbike - VERY mid life crisis

and the worst bits were his toupee and every time the camera was on him he was holding his breath in

the sad old fart

terrible film 1/10 and that's only for the unintentional laughs

did anyone else notice that when he lands the bike the front goes flying off ? :)

i thought it was good until it got to the scene in the castle where bond is locked up and domino is put up for auction. that scene kind of dragged, nothing much happened and the ending in the Tears of Allah or whatever it was called never really took off.

I dissagree I loved this movie.

Completely agree!

This movie is like the James Bond equivalent of Escape From L.A. (with Thunderball being Escape From New York.)

It was okay.

No i don't agree.

Sure there might have been some stupid in this movie, but i enjoyed it. and who the hell slams the theme? sure the lyrics were stupid, but the song sounded so 80's that it's enjoyable.

it's just a movie people. i'm more pissed off at the idiot who ripped off this movie's title for that justin beiber *beep*-flick.

Reading this signature means i've had you under my control.
