Lee 5 Budget-wise, the James Bond movies are certainly on the rise. In the latest, "You Only Live Twice," the production of a giant volcano that houses a space rocket, monorail, and helicopter platform, cost $1,200,000 more'than the entire expense for the initial 1962 Sf arsenal that looks like a drop-out from a carnival ride.

However, a large percentage of "You Only Live Twice" is disappointing, lacking the wit and zip, the pacing and punch, of its predecessors, especially the first three. Roald Dahl's script is larded with sex-slanted jokes that are either pathetically feeble or sopho-morically coarse, Bond's patented puns are punier, and even Connery's enthusiasm for his shrewd, suave, and sensual character seems to have waned. In addition, some touches such as the diabolical use of piranha fish and even the climax have already been worn out in inferior Bond parodies, such as the Matt Helm and Derek Flint series. Producers "Cubby" Broccoli and Harry Saltzman, who own the screen rights to seven more Fleming novels, recently announced a world-wide 'search for a new protagonist, since Connery has concluded that enough is enough. Judging from his final venture, his decision seems to be a sound one.

Still, with "Dr. No," "From Russia with Love," "Gold-finger," and "Thunderball," it's been great. Sayonara, Sean-san. (venture, "Dr. No." Unfortu cover and subsequently displays his blase bravado by posing as a chemical company executive, which enables him to get whacked with a samurai sword, trapped in a burning plane, and threatened with dripping poison and a plastic surgeon's knife.

He also runs into a good girl spy Akiko Waka-bayashi and a bad girl spy Karin Dor, gets "married" to an almond-eyed charmer Mie Hama, and squares off against SPECTRE'S number one hone ho the bald-headed, scar-faced Ernst Blofeld Donald Pleasence and other villains who all seem like kamikaze alumni. Directed by Lewis "Alfie" Gilbert in his first Bond attempt, the film contains several moments of entertaining escapism a helicopter dogfight, a Japanese martial arts training course sequence at the Ninja Commando school, and a high-budgeted, frenetic finale in the volcano that looks like Disneyland Far East. There also are a few, but effective, gimmicks to appease Bond boosters an electronic safe-cracking device, a high-powered cigaret with plenty of unpleasant aftertaste, a magnetized helicopter that serves as an automobile disposal and another compact helicopter- it Uf Mm (is nately, however, as the price has gone up, the quality has gone down. In Sean Connery's fifth film, very loosely based on Ian Fleming's 11th book, 007 is sent to Japan, which gives him a chance to drink not only vodka martinis stirred, not shaken, but cups of sake served at the correct temperature 98.4 degrees Fahrenheit. The newest insidious SPECTRE plot is to set the United States and Russia on a collision course by kidnaping their space capsules with a device that looks like an aluminum alligator.
