You Only Live Twice | Lewis Gilbert | 1967 | Action / James Bond | The definition of 'developing fast reflex actions' and 'spiritual strength' is me mashing the 10 as soon as I am shown a ninja training school in a Bond movie. Now they immediately make me question those reflexes when they…transform…Bond, but I gotta go with my gut. Reviewed on Sunday, November 28th, 2021, 12:00am. |

Thunderball | Terence Young | 1965 | Action / James Bond | I'm a simple man. You give me a pre-opening credits jetpack escape, your film gets a 10.
