4.0 out of 5 stars Don't understand why others have problems with it., December 12, 1999

This review is from: You Only Live Twice [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I love this picture. The previous reviewers had problems with it. It has everything a Bond picture should have. The scenery is magnificent, the gadgets are up to standard, the production quality is as good as the previous Bond efforts, the villain is a typical jerk, and the title song sung by Nancy Sinatra is the best I've ever heard in a Bond picture.

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS IS IT THE MASTERPIECE BOND MOVIE, April 3, 2009

Jonsam Friedman "Symbilbooks" (Orlando, Fl USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: You Only Live Twice [VHS] (VHS Tape)

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Exotic and original, May 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: You Only Live Twice [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This film is best appreciated if you put yourself in the seat of a viewer at the time the film was released. At that time, the film (1) featured an original spy plot (confused antagonists threaten each other on basis of acts of interloper -- a space craft-eating space craft,) and (2) introduced the idea that Japan is technologically advanced and has some cultural personality that is distinct from the U.S. I can't remember an earlier mainstream U.S. film that had ninjas or suggested that Japan could potentially launch a space craft. There is plenty of action, including an interesting if somewhat low budget looking helicopter dog fight. Finally, the sound track is excellent. The film was original and entertaining when released. You can't beat that.
