Goldfinger (1964)
Based on the novel of
the same name this is the first Bond film directed by Guy Hamilton
and stars Sean Connery, Gert Frobe and Honor Blackman. James Bond
investigates the suspicious activities of a gold dealer.
This film has some of
the iconic moments from the Bond series and Goldfinger provides a
completely ruthless villain. Being so successful this film became a
near blue print for many subsequent Bond films but the problem is
that they these ideas get flogged to death. For all the praise this
film gets there are some elements that do not work as well such as
the gimmicky henchman and some seriously problematic attitudes to
women.
3/5
