Critics Consensus

Diamonds are Forever is a largely derivative affair, but it's still pretty entertaining nonetheless, thanks to great stunts, witty dialogue, and the presence of Sean Connery.

Best mechanical gimmick mayhem in town. Go to Full Review Jay Cocks TIME Magazine 10/13/2008
Bond looks better than ever, partly because Sean Connery has returned to play him. Go to Full Review Ian Nathan Empire Magazine 04/24/2008

Connery has a ball with great stunts, snappy dialogue and a bevy of typically Bondish beauties. Go to Full Review John Hofsess Maclean's Magazine 10/24/2023
Only the British apparently (judging by dozens of unfortunate imitations) can make a crude sex-and-violence formula yield such refined, exhilarating entertainment as this. Go to Full Review Carson Timar ButteredPopcorn 08/28/2022

With a sense of lifelessness, Diamonds Are Forever easily is the most boring Bond film. Go to Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy 09/25/2021

It would be Connery's final appearance in the official series, and he goes out in style. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Charles 09/07/2022 Not as good as You Only Live Twice, but it’s just as witty and action packed. See more Ben W @Username618 2d gay stereotypes? in the villains. See more andrea C @Charst Mar 9 Il clamoroso ritorno di Sean Connery è probabilmente l'unico motivo per cui questo capitolo della saga raggiunge la sufficienza. Sicuramente il fascino ed il carisma dell'attore riescono a mantenere gradevole anche un film con una trama molto più confusa del solito e anche meno spettacolare per certi versi; sicuramente per le location. Alcuni colpi di scena sono ben riusciti, come la sfida con i cloni; ma troppo spesso si perde il filo del discorso. Anche le sequenze di azione non sono alla solita altezza. See more Alec B @Alec97 Feb 9 Basically every risk Guy Hamilton took in "Goldfinger" paid off. In his next three Bond movies the results are decidedly less successful. This is never really boring but Connery is clearly just here for the money, the action is often too outrageous, every major villain is gay for some reason, and all the women characters are morons. Thank God Shirley Bassey came back for that genuinely great opening song though. See more Stephen C @bob25009 Jan 25 The worldwide gross is $116,000,000.00. See more Carlos T @RT67858720 Jan 24 🎬 **Crítica | 007 – Os Diamantes São Eternos (Diamonds Are Forever, 1971)** **Ano:** 1971 | **Duração:** 120 minutos 🎞️ **Enredo & História** Em seu sexto filme como 007, Sean Connery retorna após a recepção negativa do longa anterior. A trama envolve o contrabando de diamantes que levam Bond a enfrentar um plano global da SPECTRE: uma arma capaz de destruir a Terra. O grande problema está no roteiro confuso, que apresenta **não um, mas vários Blofelds**, mortos e reaparecendo ao longo da narrativa, enfraquecendo a ameaça e quebrando a tensão. 🎥 **Produção, Fotografia e Efeitos Especiais** A produção mantém o padrão da franquia, com boas locações, sequências de ação bem coreografadas e um tom mais leve, quase cômico em alguns momentos. Os efeitos especiais cumprem seu papel, mas sem a grandiosidade de filmes anteriores como *Thunderball*. Nota:** **6 / 10** See more Read all reviews
