There's not the least sign of staleness in this third sample of the Bond 007 formula.

This 1964 entry is the most enjoyable of the James Bond thrillers starring Sean Connery -- perhaps because it's the most comic and cartoony in look as well as conception.

Goldfinger, the third James Bond film, was the most successful in the series to date, due to its ingredients (hero, villains, women, locations, music, effects), which later served as blueprint for future Bond sagas.

Goldfinger remains the gold standard for the Bond movies. Recent entries can't compare to this lustrous thriller, a throwback to when the term "thriller" had meaning.
