As he writes in his review, while <em>Thunderball<\/em> &#8220;has some of the series&#8217; most impressive filmic set pieces,&#8221; it&#8217;s bedeviled by &#8220;an unusually sloppy structure&#8221; and often &#8220;goes off on frequent tangents to work flashy gadgets and action into the story.&#8221; He further argues that while &#8220;the producers knew they had the essential ingredients for a hit&#8221; they &#8220;no longer seemed to care about crafting a superior film.&#8221; On a more positive note, he points out that &#8220;John Barry&#8217;s score is one of his best,&#8221; that &#8220;Paluzzi makes a delightfully sexy villainess, while she lasts,&#8221; and that &#8220;the photography is sleek throughout.&#8221; While all-purpose film fanatics don&#8217;t need to check this one out, they may be curious to watch it once &#8212; and hardcore fans of the series surely already have their own firmly entrenched opinions. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Unique sets<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Sets.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Sets-1024x435.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"272\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-51960\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Sets-1024x435.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Sets-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Sets-128x54.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Sets-768x326.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Sets-604x257.png 604w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Sets.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Fine cinematography<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography-1024x435.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"272\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-51961\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography-1024x435.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography-128x54.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography-768x326.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography-604x257.png 604w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography2-1024x435.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"272\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-51962\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography2-1024x435.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography2-300x128.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography2-128x54.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography2-768x326.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography2-604x257.png 604w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/Thunderball-Cinematography2.png 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>John Barry&#8217;s score <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See?
