James Bond (Sean Connery) has aged and is forced into retirement after failing a rigorous training exercise. However, SPECTRE hijacks two nuclear warheads, threatening the world. M (played by Edward Fox) is forced to reinstate the veteran 007 to recover the weapons.
Bond travels to the Bahamas and France, infiltrating the organization of Maximilian Largo (Klaus Maria Brandauer). He is aided by Largo’s mistress, Domino Petachi (Kim Basinger), who seeks revenge for her brother's murder at Largo's hands. The film culminates in an underwater battle and a high-tech video game duel.
To appreciate Never Say Never Again, one must first understand the bizarre landscape of 1983. For over two decades, EON Productions had a stranglehold on Ian Fleming’s creation. However, a decades-old legal quirk involving the novel Thunderball (1961) created a crack in the armor.
In the 1960s, Ian Fleming collaborated with screenwriters Kevin McClory, Jack Whittingham, and Ivar Bryce to develop a film script. When that project fell through, Fleming turned the script into the novel Thunderball. McClory sued, winning the literary and film rights to the Thunderball story. The 1965 EON film Thunderball was only made because McClory allowed it, retaining the right to remake the film after ten years.
By the late 1970s, McClory decided to exercise that right. Simultaneously, Sean Connery—who had famously sworn he would “never again” play James Bond after the exhausting shoot of You Only Live Twice (1967) and the disastrous The Shaws of Kilbride fiasco—was offered a king’s ransom. The offer was a staggering $5 million (over $15 million today) plus a percentage of the gross, making him the highest-paid actor in Hollywood at the time.
Connery, ever pragmatic, famously quipped: “I’d already said ‘never again’ so many times that my wife told me to shut up and take the money.” The title, Never Say Never Again, was a direct, self-deprecating jab at his own famous declaration.
The director was Irvin Kershner, fresh off the massive success of Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back. Kershner was a character-driven director, not an action set-piece conveyor belt. He brought a grimy, textured realism to the Bond world.
Look at the famous “Riding the Bomb” sequence in Dr. No? Never Say Never Again reverses it. Bond is forced to ride a nuclear warhead on a test drive through a missile silo, but it’s not heroic; it’s terrifying. The camerawork is shaky, the lighting is harsh, and Connery’s face is a mask of genuine panic.
However, Kershner clashed constantly with the producers. McClory wanted a pure remake; Connery wanted to deconstruct the myth; Kershner wanted a psychological thriller. The result is a fascinating Frankenstein. The tone lurches violently from cartoonish (Fatima Blush feeding a man to a shark via a waterslide) to grim (Bond strangling a man with a medical respirator).
