Rating: 
While the original release of Thunderball was missing a huge chunk of the score, this remastered re-release is pretty much complete. The powerful main title performed by Tom Jones is here of course, but there is much more besides. One of the central missing elements of the original release were Barry’s striking action cues which are at their best when listened to loud, though many of the them have been segued together. Mr Kiss Kiss Bang Bang also plays a large part in this score, resurfacing in ‘Café Martinique’, ‘Death Of Fiona’ and two versions of the song itself. Though not everyone’s favourite film, Thunderball remains a highly listenable and surprisingly varied score. It is also a good length, running to nearly 80 minutes.
