Here I go again!

GOOD
Sean Connery- Perfect. Absolutely brilliant. Everyone in the world knows who James Bond is.

Pussy Galore- Very good. Very pretty. One setback, her voice. Good enough to be good though.

Auric Goldfinger- A few rough edges, but very convincing. Possible best villain ever.

Harold Sakata- One of the best henchman ever. Perfect.

Bernard Lee- Perfect.

Lois Maxwell- PErfect.

Desmond Llewellen- Perfect. Three in a row.

Shirley Eaton- Great. Gorgeous.

Tania Mallet- More pretty than Shirley. But a little btchy towards Bond.

MArtin Benson- Small role. Good.

Gadgets- Great. DB5 is classic.

Plot- Brilliant. If only they all could be this good. Love seeing Bonds amazing after it unfolds.

Girls- Great. Love hearing Pussy Galore's little moan in the barn. Wonderful scene with Jill.

Even
Action- Great car chase. Could've used a little more action. Should have put more focus on the attempts by the troops getting inside Fort Knox.

BAD

Cec Linder- 1. Uncomfortable in role.
2. Doesn't look act like Felix Leiter.


Almost perfect. 4 out of 5 stars.

I agree with all of the above. Goldfinger is one of my favourite Bond movies, it's a rare example of when they got everything right.

My only gripe would be the lack of action during the ranch scenes, the film seems to lose focus here, but other than that it's an almost perfect Bond film.
