YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE (Theatrical Release USA 1967)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.0|5.0 Starsìììì

You Only Live Twice—not Sean Connery’s best interpretation of James Bond—adequately delivers a good spy flick due to its thorough script and its dive into Japanese culture. The movie has the usual James Bond perks and definitely earns its right to the big screen viewing experience.
