About
Thunderball

One of the purest Bond films, featuring an exotic locale, beautiful women, and once again Connery's vastly unappreciated physicality and mastery. Whether its his quick, lightening fast instinctual violence (when he skeet shoots) or the tender moment when he covers his eyes with shades as he exploits a woman's pain for his benefit, I remain deeply impressed by Connery's craft. The underwater battle remains a surreal highlight in the Bond franchise.
