I can't hate a movie featuring Sean Connery. This sure is a weird situation, Connery coming back to compete with Roger Moore. They're friends I think, and enjoyed the parallel film releases. Surprisingly, as weird as this one gets at times, I still really enjoy it. If we could go and edit this together with the franchise staples they had to drop, I'd probably like it even more. One great plus is the way they treat Bond like he really is: old. The main villain is played so crazy and interesting too. Only major issues I have are M and Q in this. Normally I love those characters, but this time they just don't feel personalized correctly. But who cares, this time we get Mr Bean.

I wanted to hate this movie from the start because it's not part of the family. It just isn't. I will not ever count this as a Bond film. That said....it's okay. It is better than Thunderball, but hey that is maybe my least favorite Bond film of all time, so that doesn't say much. This movie isn't so bad.

Very mediocre flick, although in theory, it has it all: Sean Connery, (a lot of) beautiful women and gadgets. But the story just does not cut it!

Remake of Diamonds for Eternity in Sean Connery's last film as James Bond.

_Never Say Never Again_ is no _Thunderball_. Sean Connery reprises the role of James Bond one last time for this unofficial remake of the EON Bond film _Thunderball_. The new cast includes some impressive talent, such as Kim Basinger and Max von Sydow, but their performances are rather poor and they don’t really do anything new with the characters. Still, there are some exciting chases and fight scenes, as well as some fun Bond gagets. Yet whiles it’s an entertaining adventure, _Never Say Never Again_ is but a pale imitation of a real EON Bond film.

Sean Connery's last film as James Bond, a remake of Thunderball, which he did himself, here he is more sly and the girls are better. . I liked the movie more than the previous version seen 2 days ago. Mr Bean appears as Mr Bean

Not bad for an independent 007 movie but still not good. I did like seeing an older Sean Connery.
