| Tagline: | Welcome to Japan, Mr. Bond |
| Favourite line: | James Bond: "Well, if I'm gonna be forced to watch television, may I smoke?" Blofeld: "Yes. Give him his cigarettes. It won't be the nicotine that kills you, Mr. Bond." |
With the biggest budget up to this point for a Bond movie (this is number 5) this also boasts the most impressive sets and set-pieces of the first clutch.
The plot:
strategically important and manned space vessels of the West are vanishing, swallowed up by a larger vessel believed to belong to Russia. The British Secret Service, however, believes that SPECTRE is behind it, and is attempting to provoke World War III.
Sumptuous locations, a superb underground base in the heart of a volcano, and a stunning finale make this an excellent addition to the franchise, and the last Connery movie worth watching.
Good Bond.
