Back in 1965, we had many things going for us a country, and cinema was one of them. Thunderball was a considerably exciting film based upon the time-frame only years after the Cuban missile crisis. Sean Connery was into making his fourth film and Hollywood was loving the Ian Fleming novels set to film. The underwater scenes are amazing even to this day. Bond 007 (Sean Connery) was much more cool and sexy than in later films, and women all seemed to love him in this starring role. The Thunderball theme was of course sung by Tom Jones. The cinematography was superb above and below the water. I'll give this a 4/5 for its attempt to follow several other films that made it quite better than Thunderball at the Box Office, yet failed to capture the true essence of immediate nuclear threat.

Thunderball was a wonderful state of the art techno spy movie from 1965 that did not age well. The underwater fight scene was revolutionary in its day but seems contrived and in need of modern special effects. The hero seems misogynistic and the whole movie is filled with stereotypes. If you remember 1965 it is good for nostalgia. Otherwise I would recommend the newer Bond movies.
