Goldfinger (1964)

Alright, I have trashed this series for the first two movies, but now I must step back and take stock of the wonder of which I have now beheld in Goldfinger.  To keep with the tradition of the previous two films the acting was horrible, but the ideas brought forth in the story were incredible.  Picture a man, if you will, who has a fetish for gold.  To satisfy this addiction he has formulated a plan to break into the vaults at Fort Knox, plant a dirty nuclear bomb which he got from Chinese investors, and in return sell his non-contaminated gold to the rest of the world at ten times the current market value....Brilliant.  Finally, a three star movie for the James Bond series.  Oh, and watch for a crazy Asian man who can kill you with his hat!!
