This movie is sheer and utter crap

Thunderball outdid this film in every way

Octopussy was far better and more interesting

The motorcycle chase was all right

The score was bland and lackluster

Connery looked far better than in DAF

James Bond wears Shady Tree's old toupee.

Was better first time when called Thunderball

Connery way too old for the role

Octopussy was the better Bond that year

Never should have been made.

Completely uninspired remake of Thunderball.

Connery simply too old to play Bond.

Better than some "official" James Bond films.

The Nassau scenes are from nowhere

The France scenes were great

The last 30min is very boring.

Overall not the worst but not best.

James Bond theme needed

Sean Connery is better than in DAF.

Bingo



Kevin McClory really sucks at life, period.

The supposedly exploding cigar case was cool.

Its much better than all the 70's Bond films put together (although TSWLM comes very, very close...).

Connery acts as great as he did in his first four. A true return for Bond!

Brandauer is the series' best villain, after Goldfinger and Sanchez.

Fatima Blush is the best Bond Henchwoman. Tied with Red Grant as the very best henchman/henchwoman.

Is better than OP, and AVTAK (especially the latter!!)

Yeah, Basinger sucks, but damn she's HOT in it!

I LOL with Rowan Atkinson (wish his Johnny English was more like this one!!!)

I prefer Edward Fox's M to Robert Brown's Admiral-Hardgreaves-turned-M. And Judi Dench stole from his performance.

Many antics in this movie were re-used in Brosnan's Bond (the leiser watch, the motorcycle chase, etc.)

Overall, NSNA is a great, great Bond film. Its my favorite Connery Bond after FRWL and GF.

I love it!

Unofficial remake of Thunderball starring Sean Connery.

Connery best thing about Never Say Never.

Connery's cool, Carerra's fun, and Brandauer's wacko.

Kevin McClory finally gets his Bond film.

Battle of Bonds goes to Moore/Octopussy.

Never Say Never inferior to Thunderball original.

After 12 years, Connery's still got it.

Connery proves that nobody does it better.

Sean Connery IS Bond, James Bond 007.

Kim Basinger = Lame
Barbara Carrera = Hot
Bad videogame scene
Needs more editing
I like it better when it was called Thunderball
