Actuakers One of my all time favorites.

Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

glenn-aylett This was Sean Connery's best outing as Bond and still an excellent film to watch more than fifty years later.Unlike the other sixties Bonds, Goldfinger doesn't involve SPECTRE and concerns a megalomaniac gold dealer, Auric Goldfinger, who plans to destroy Fort Knox and wreck the world's economy and make the value of his gold soar in value, with some help from Red China.There's not a dull moment in the whole film, from the start where Bond destroys a heroin factory in Mexico, to the end where he has to kill Goldfinger on a plane. Excellent are the lesser characters, Howard Sakata is brilliant as the mute henchman Oddjob, a martial arts expert who has a lethal bowler hat and a sick smile, and Honor Blackman is on top form as Bond girl, Pussy Galore, who is like a continuation of her character in The Avengers and is the only Bond girl to have been older than 007.My favourite scenes are the car chase in Switzerland, where Bond displays his stunt Aston Martin to full effect, Bond being tortured in Goldfinger's factory( " do you expect to talk, Goldfinger", " no, Mr Bond, I expect you to die) and the fight between Bond and Oddjob inside Fort Knox. Don't forget the magnificent theme tune sung by Shirley Bassey( Goldfingaaahhh!), featuring a young Jimmy Page on session guitar. All in all, Connery's finest Bond and one of the greatest films of all time.

morganstephens512 What I like1. The dead girl painted in gold2. Connery as Bond is as good as ever3. The plot is more fleshed out than Dr No and From Russia With Love4. The characters are more enjoyable5. The fact it started "Goldpingas"6. The final battle7. The mystery feel to itWhat I didn't like1. Nothing reallyOverall this is one of the best Bond movies and probably Connery's best effort out of the bunch. I feel like this movie deserves the praise that it gets at the end of the day

Coventry Every individual James Bond film has some good assets and at least two or three special qualities that make it fantastically entertaining. "Goldfinger", however, exclusively has great assets and special qualities! I think this third entry in the series is almost unanimously – and righteously – labeled as THE best Bond movie of all. It's definitely also the most quintessential title to watch in order to get fully acquainted with the lead character's personality and working methods, as well as with the type of assignments he receives from his employer, his opponents and the hi- tech attributes he gets to help him. You'd expect all this to become clear already in the first film, "Dr. No", but the character created by Ian Fleming was still fairly unknown back then and hence the production values were a lot lower. Barely two years and only one sequel later, James Bond had already become a phenomenon and "Goldfinger" delivered the incredibly high expectations of the fans. It truly also is a terrific film, with an utmost solid script, a top three legendary villain and various highly memorable action & suspense sequences. Personally, I have the bizarre habit of ranking my favorite Bond movies based on the evil- factor and charisma of the villains, and thus "Goldfinger" is quite high up there thanks to the sublime roles of Gert Fröbe as the titular character and Harold Sakata as Oddjob, his silent but deadly henchman who pulverizes golf balls with his bare hands and throws around his killer-hat of steel. The gold-obsessed magnate has thought up an ingenious plan to rob the entire American gold supply from Fort Knox and naturally it's 007's job to prevent this from happening. Therefore Bond infiltrates into Goldfinger's private affairs twice; messing up his game cheating routines and seducing his female accomplices. Auric Goldfinger is undoubtedly one of the most vicious Bond-villains, but arguably also one of the dumbest! Never before or after did 007's opponents receive so many open and easy chances to eliminate him, but Goldfinger decides not to take the risk and kill his disloyal female assistants instead! Many, many sequences in this third Bond film are pure vintage, including the white tuxedo underneath the diving suit, Shirley Eaton's golden corpse, an uncomfortable laser beam moment and – of course – every scene with that awesome Aston Martin!

Dalbert Pringle Such a cold "finger"!?.... Yeah-Yeah. I know that Goldfinger was, of course, a James Bond-007 movie, but, all the same, it was kinda boring and, yes, downright, dumb at times.(And, I know that this isn't going to go over very well) - But when I watched actor Sean Connery really closely I found that there was something oddly "gay" about him. There was! I can't quite put my finger (gold, or not) on what exactly it was about Connery's mannerisms that sparked my "gaydar" suspicions - But, hey - What the hell, eh? - I'm allowed.Anyways - All-in-all - I did enjoy Goldfinger for the most part, but I certainly wouldn't rate this one as great entertainment, not by a long-shot.In conclusion - I ask you - How the hell (in the name of Miss Moneypenny) does one go about painting an adult, human body from head to toe, front to back, without making even the slightest mess out of the whole damn job? Eh? How? - 'Cause that ain't no easy task to undertake. No. It ain't! But in Goldfinger this task's final product was made to look like it was done as easy as pie.
