Big James Bond production with first look at arch-nemesis Blofeld (Pleasence), Japanese locales, but plot (SPECTRE out to cause major powers to declare war on each other) and lack of convincing, clever crisis situations are liabilities film can't shake off.

Great location photography; theme sung by Nancy Sinatra. Implausible plot, however, is a handicap, even though this is Bond.
