MCT:August 1, 2008This is seemingly the moment when the Bond films started to go over the top. It's barely solid, and while there are some enjoyable parts (the gay duo), it becomes too campy for it's own good, while the plot seems all over the place. Jill St. John is certainly a hot Bond girl, but she's god-awful annoying with her sploitation style of delivery. While having one of the more memorable themes, I found this to be the least of Connery's Bond run.

MCT:July 19, 2008Solid meh. The gay henchmen were fun and all, but this is definitely the least of the Connery Bonds.

Goofy as any in the series, but Connery is as terrific as ever, and Jill St. John is a great Bond girl.
-
MCT:July 8, 2008I think this was the last Bond movie that Sean Connery was in and he sails along doing what he did best.

"Bond: I tend to notice little things like that - whether a girl is a blonde or a brunette.
Tiffany Case: Which do you prefer?
Bond: Either, as long as the collar and cuffs match..." -

Même si l'on a là l'occasion de gouter pour une dernière fois (officiellement parlant) aux prouesses de Connery - qui n'affiche toutefois plus la même vergne qu'à l'habitude -, ça ne signifie pas que Diamonds are Forever mérite pour autant d'être classifié dans les meilleurs films de James Bond. Les personnages sont nombreux, et plus souvent qu'autrement, inintéressants (mis à part le duo loufoque Kidd/Wint). Le scénario est assez complexe et la course folle dans Las Vegas manque assurément d'un petit je-ne-sais-quoi. Il s'agit également là d'un des rares James Bond (du moins, dans les dix premiers) où de nombreuses solutions aux problématiques furent exagérément ridicules et où James Bond n'eût pas à se servir de son indiscutable logique pour se sortir du pétrin. Entre autre, la pathétique scène du cercueil...

#20 -- From the emotional trauma that left some of us watery-eyed at the end of OHMSS, we jump into Diamonds Are Forever; a lovely escapade of utter stupidity and laughably bad sequences that will most likely put you to sleep if you're not already dead from laughing. This one easily has the worst plot next to Die Another Day, although Charles Gray isn't that bad as Blofeld (but "Prepare my Bath-o-Sub" is a pretty terrible line). Diamonds Are Forever isn't brought down by the fact that it is campy, but by the fact that it is completely dull. The following film keeps the campy nature of this one while bringing up the excitement level.

Not one of the best out of the James Bond series, but definitely one of the most entertaining. Sean Connery still delivers. However, this movie lacked of something (perhaps some style) that left me a little bit dissapointed. Even so, a worthy adding to the series, with a confusing storyline.
76/100 -
MCT:May 26, 2008The second worst Bond film ever, after A View To A Kill. Was not worth Connery coming back, its just bizarre and weird.

Bond enters the 70s and the cheesiness begins. How unfortunate. The Americanization of Bond is a sad sight and the Las Vegas premise is laughable and wacky. Diehard fans of the series might get a kick out of watching some of the strangest set peices (including a moon car dune buggy chase). The only thing worth sitting through in this lame film, is the style and swagger of Connery. There's also a terrific close quarters fight in an elevator.

a very good bond film. i can genuinely say i liked it the whole way through. jill st john helps with her bod. sean connerys last time as bond (and his best too). yeh, plenty of action! plenty of eye candy and villians also

Subtlety and sophistication are not two words that you can use in respect of a Bond film, however for me thats a good thing. Plenty of action and comedy make for a good combination. This instalment sees Sean Connery setting his trusty fanny magnet to full power (thank god there were no STD's in those days!). Yes there is plenty of sexism here but who cares (apart from those bloody feminists of course). So does 007 make the world of spys and villains big and clever; oh definitely! Very easy to watch, throw away TV ideal for a Sunday afternoon.
NB: I don't care what you say, Roger is always going to be the best Bond! -

Connery takes the money and runs in his final official Bond. Diamonds, Las vegas, and Jimmie Dean, but the real stars are Mr. Wint and Mr. Kid as the "happy" (gay?) hitmen that are a treat to watch because they are so nutty.

A direct continuation of On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Connery reportedly got paid somewhere in the area of $20 million (adjusted for inflation today) to return for one more official Bond movie. He made it a memorable one, too, as Charles Gray, Jill St. John and the sausage-king Jimmy Dean all make this one of the best entries in the series.

The film is mainly set in Las Vegas but also includes other stunning locations. The reason i feel the 7th 007 movie lets itself down is the weak action. Each film includes something stunning which you remember all the time. The only real memorable sequence from this film is a car chase through Las Vegas, with an unforgivable turn for a car in a narrow alley, which needs to be seen to be believed how bad it looks.
Jill St.John plays a good character in Tiffany Case, but does not play Tiffany Case as a good Bond Girl. Her and Bond don't spend enough time together to create that romantic link between the two. She feels more like an allie to Bond rather than his love interest. Jimmy Dean was also perfectly cast as Willard Whyte. He really came across as a high profiled American who likes things to go his way. As the films have gone on, the great character has seemed to decrease in Ernst Blofeld. This time we have the wonderful Charles Gray portraying him, but his talent is put to waste. He should have be on screen more with a menacing tone, instead of dressing up in drag to capture the Bond girl. Whilst Diamonds Are Forever has many flaws, it is still an enjoyable Bond film to watch, but then again, what Bond film isn't enjoyable to watch. -

Four stars on the commentary. Haven't seen the movie yet. But from what I saw, it looks like a blast.

I prefer the Bond movies with Connery, it's classy :) Seriously though, he is the best Bond so far, even if I think Brosnan did a good job as well.
-
MCT:February 18, 2008
Bruce Glover plays a gay henchmen, and bond uses dr. evil as a wrecking ball though a building. Plus Jimmy Dean the sausage guy plays a part and once again, the bond girls are pretty good.
-
MCT:January 27, 2008
One of the reasons l give this 3/5, it's because l'am a Bond-freak. Connery is tired of the role and thats de worst thing about the movie.
-
MCT:January 21, 2008The question is what isn't right about this James Bond movie? This is the perfect Sean Connery James Bond. A perfect 10 in all areas. Pefect and most beautiful Bond Girl..great to see Shirley Bassey come back for #2. This is the last official James Bond movie until the remake of Thuderball in Never Say Never Again but he exists in fine fine fashion :)
...next is... Live and Let Die -
MCT:January 7, 2008
a fine final performance from Connery. suave, sophisticated humour (a nice segue to later Roger Moore efforts), entertaining plot, and exciting action (JB getting his butt whooped by a couple sexy women). definitely a terrific Bond flick.

Sean Connery's final outing as Agent 007 takes him to the strips of Las Vegas and matches wits with his arch-nemisis Blofeld.
-
MCT:December 21, 2007An odd mishmash of plots comes together to make one of the most unsatisfactory Bond movies yet. Read the book, it's much simpler and much better!
