You Only Live Twice review

I purchased this movie as a birthday gift for my husband. He's a big fan of the old 007 movies. He really enjoyed this DVD and all the extras it had to offer. What he liked the most are the video and audio interviews with the director and actors. It was well worth the purchase!

If You Want A Good Bond Adventure, You Can't Get Much Better

It has been a while since I watched this movie. It isn't my favorite, but it is close. It definitely is Bond as its best.

This Bond movie has drifted from the original further than its predecessors, with elements of creativity while keeping to some of the trappings of the original, such as Bond impersonating a Japanese, and ninjas on the good guys side.

Donald Pleasance is the first of three actors to play villain Blofeld, this one with a scarred face. The other two actors did not have that scar. But this is the movies, so does it matter? The book was the next to the last of Ian Fleming's novels, with only "Man With A Golden Gun" following it. This movie is earlier in the series, and only has a loose connection to previous movies, primarily SPECTRE.

If you want a thrilling adventure, go for this one.

THIS IS IT THE MASTERPIECE BOND MOVIE

I believe after watching almost all the Bond films, this is the one masterpiece from beginning to end in this genre. There were no mistakes, no farcical annoyances like you find in Roger Moore's or modern Bond films. No mistakes, this film does not play in anyway, perfect from beginning to end--- as a 007 movie should be. This in fact should be what every Bond movie strives for, alas they all fall short. Perfect like well-cut diamond this is the real McCoy.

Sizzling bond thriller from 1967, set in Japan

After James Bond (Sean Connery) has participated in faking his own murder in Hong Kong, to give him "more elbow room" in the words of his superior, M (Bernard Lee), he is dispatched to Japan to investigate the mysterious disappearance of both American and Soviet space crafts which threatens to spark World War III.

Working together with Japanese secret service leader Tiger Tanaka (Tetsuro Tamba), he meets beautiful Japanese agent Aki (Akiko Wakabayashi), who helps Bond through several close shaves.
Working with a Japanese Secret Service Ninja force, he locates the sabotage to the shadowy organization SPECTRE, led by the sinister Ernst Stavro Blofeld (Donald Pleasence).
After Aki is murdered by SPECTRE agents (She dies after ingesting poison dropped into the bed she shares with Bond), Bond teams up, in a faked marriage with the attractive Kissy Suzuki Mie Hama).
Together with the Ninja force they penetrate Blofeld's massive headquarters, hidden in a volcano, where the final battle ensues.
Before Blofeld tries to kill Bond, he reminds him "You Only Live Twice", referring to his earlier faked death.
The chemistry between Bond and the exquisite Aki is perfect, and in the scene where a marriage is proposed and Bond thinks it is Aki, Aki's face lights up.
No less stunning is Mie Hama as Kissy Suzuki, an expert swimmer and fighter, and one of the sexiest Bond girl ever.

Good Movie

James Bond always comes with a lot of action.I enjoyed it very much.

Thanks

The film boasts the best of the Bond title songs (this one sung on a dreamy track by Nancy Sinatra), but the movie itself is one of the weaker ones of the Sean Connery phase of the 007 franchise. The story concerns an effort by the evil organization SPECTRE to start a world war, but the not-so-super villain behind the plot is the awfully civilized Donald Pleasence. The thin script is by Roald Dahl (shouldn't we have expected a better Bond nemesis from the creator of mad genius Willy Wonka?), and direction is by British veteran Lewis Gilbert (Alfie). But the movie can't hold a candle to Dr. No, From Russia with Love, or Goldfinger. --Tom Keogh
