Sorry, but this film is complete GARBAGE.
"You Only Live Twice" is the ABSOLUTE WORST Bond movie and it isn't even close... and shouldn't even be a debate. Watch it, again. PLEASE!!!! It is the most ridiculous Bond film ever and Sean mails in his performance too. "You Only Live Twice" had the following ridiculous things:
1. Hollowed out Volcano Lair (this alone vaults it to the top)
2. 6'2", 235 lb Sean Connery trying to pass for Japanese
3. Ninjas that can't fight or climb down ropes!!!
4. Lamest, cardboard-esque Blofeld in Donald Pleasance
5. Flesh eating Pirhanna moat (oh no!)
6. Horrible Screenplay written by the author of Charlie and the Chocolate factory, Roald Dahl.
The movie is so bad, Mike Myers used virtually every aspect for his Austin Power COMEDY films of the 1990's/2000's! In fact, Dr. Evil has more depth than Blofeld in "You Only Live Twice"
Of course Connery fanboys are blind to how ridiculous this film is and to speak against it is blasphemy to them. Whatever. I know what I see and it's really, really bad.
