Agente 007 - Thunderball - Operazione tuono

Il sindacato internazionale del crimine, noto come "Spectre", sta progettando il suo più grande colpo: impadronirsi di bombe atomiche e ricattare le potenze della NATO. Dall'Inghilterra vengono messi in azione i migliori agenti segreti, tra cui James Bond, il quale viene ben presto a contatto con Largo, il numero uno dell'organizzazione. Sfuggendo a diversi attentati ed avvicinandosi sempre di più all'individuazione dell'intrigo, Bond conquista una giovane donna, Domino, amica di Largo. In base alle indicazioni ottenute dalla ragazza, Bond penetra nel deposito sottomarino nel momento in cui gli uomini della Spectre si apprestano a trasferire le bombe sullo yacht di Largo. Tra costoro ed una folta schiera di sommozzatori aviotrasportati, chiamati sul posto da Bond, viene ingaggiata una battaglia che si conclude vittoriosamente per questi ultimi, e Largo viene ucciso da Bond mentre con lo yacht stava per sfuggire alla flottiglia inseguitrice.
