That damn hairpiece of Connery's still haunts me, you know ...

Perhaps I was being a bit too harsh in the other "NSNA" thread; the film isn't THAT crap, it just doesn't have anything to really recommend it. The story is {obviously} just a re-hash, the action is uninspired, the FX hokey in parts {even by the standards of the day}, and it's just downright strange in terms of the way in which it messes with established character traits {An old JB? A young M? A cockney Q called Algernon? A black Felix?}. Hard to believe that Irving Kershner {the director of "The Empire Strikes Back", people} helmed this mess ...

Having said that, Connery was still undeniably cool after all those years away {adding an intriguing, almost "world weary" quality to Bond for this adventure}, and some bits are undeniably fun {such as the "world domination" game}.

What do you guys think?

I thought that the Volpe in this movie got closer to the naughty nurse version wink

That's not the point; it looks SO unbelievably fake! It's vying with William Shatner's rug for the title of "worst hairpiece ever" ...

Ahnold
Heh - I'm a bit obsessed, aren't I?

yerssot
no, not really... everyone could see that it was a hairpiece and a darn ugly one too
