I just saw "You only live twice".
It's... ok? I feel like this is the most middle of the road out of all of the Sean Connery movies. The plot is good enough, though this really ramps up the sillyness factor quite a lot. Also, this probably has more "why don't you just shoot him?" moments than any of the Bond movies I've seen thus far. He is constantly at the mercy of people who could just kill him, but they don't. Seriously, even when Blofeld has Bond at his mercy (multiple times) he goes for dramatics instead of shooting! Why not? You threw a woman to a piranha pool because she didn't kill him, now you make the same mistake? It makes the villains look like buffoons. Without a threatening villain, the movie loses quite a lot, though at least it has a lot of original settings and fight scenarios.
Overall, it's a 5/10, it's worth seeing just for the amount of spy tropes it brought to the table, but in the end is not that solid of a movie.
