James Bond (Sean Connery) is off to Japan when the hijacking of two space capsules (one American, the other Russian) has two of the world's biggest superpowers accusing each other and on the brink of war.  Upon landing in Tokyo, Bond teams up with the Japanese secret service and a small army of deadly ninjas (yes, NINJAS!) to track down the source of the signal of the hijacking vessel, and take down what turns out to be an old enemy organization determined (as always) to control the world.  Cool gadgets, over-the-top chase scenes and action sequences, and the usual political incorrectness of the Bond women featured here make for (if you can ignore that last one, it being a sign of the times and the genre) one of the more entertaining, genuinely fun (in a videogame sort of way) of all Bond's adventures.
