Help me name this James Bond flick...

Well, I think it was a James Bond flick. Here's what I remember:

I think it was intro to a film. A spy (I think it was a Bond), is infiltrating a jungle terrorist hideout to free a beautiful blonde hostage. He kicks ass and frees the girl from her bonds. She then proceeds to shoot him in the chest. With a paintball gun. And then Bond's superiors come into the hut and say how they're disappointed that he fell for that, and reminded him to be wary in the future of Stockholm syndrome. So it was all a training exercise.

Does any of that ring a bell with anyone? It was probably at least as old as the mid-80's.

Thanks!

It was Never Say Never Again,
A sort of rebel production to the main franchise with Sean Connery returning to fill the role of Bond

Gower has hit the mark. I quite liked NSNA too.

It was a remake of Thunderball, although the villain stole a cruise missile rather than a nuclear bomb from a RAF v-bomber.

Despite some defects, I think this one had a truly cold and calculating villain, and some rather nice heroines and villainesses; Kim Basinger and Barbara Carrera.

Was that the one with the really long gun under the table?
I remember the paintball gun bit

Are you not thinking of a scene in Stromberg's underwater base in "The Spy Who Loved Me"?
