Great service    January 8, 2009
Dandy Don (spokane)
I have a grandson who's 10 and very much into the "original" Bond. The DVD came as promised, before Christmas and in the condition advertised.

What can I say that hasen't already been said. You got a great Bond girl, Bond villain, and of course, Connery at his best. Get this NAOW!


SEAN CONNERY AS BOND    November 3, 2008
JESSICA YVONNE VARMA (Trichur East, Kerala State, India)
Goldfinger
Sean Connery returns to play the super-secret-agent fot the third time, following Dr.No and From Russia with Love. I saw this in my Dad's home-theatre. He is, a great Sean Connery Fan and has all the Connery films in his collection. Gert Frobe is the villian of the title in the company of Oddjob. Bernard Lee returns as M and Lois Maxwell as Miss Moneypenny. The script by Paul Dehn and Richard Maibaum is well plotted and entertaining. But the best part is still the titles. John Barry wrote the great music.
Even in the tiny town of Coonoor, in the Nilgiris Mountain ranges, the film ran to packed houses, and Connery became a house-hold name.


A sophisticated romp in the hay    July 26, 2008
Wanda B. Red (Boston, MA)
This classic James Bond film, which introduced 007 to the movie-watching world, cleverly uses the reticence required by film-making in the 1960s as an instrument of the plot. Of course, James, handsome and irresistible as always, goes to bed with all the beautiful ladies he meets: Jill Masterson and her lovely sister Tillie, and later the inimitable Pussy Galore (whose name Sean Connery pronounces with delicate and lascivious irony).

But we are not privy to the obligatory close-ups and body shots or the accompanying moaning that make contemporary films so cloying. Skip the pillow talk and on to the next moment of the action: The champagne has grown warm and so James must repair to the kitchen where the mute but efficient Korean blackbelt Oddjob and a rousing fight scene await him. Similarly, when James bests the cocksure Pussy in a romp in the hay in the stables of a Kentucky horse farm, the camera fades out. It's not until much later that we find out whether or not his love-making was transformative enough to have turned Pussy into an honest woman. Thus, modesty is transformed to suspense. Brilliant. James also dresses up so well; nobody so perfectly becomes white tie, down to the rose in his lapel.


one of the top 2 james bond movies of all time    July 7, 2008

More than likely you've seen this movie but if not here's a brief take. James Bond secret agent for the british empire is on assignment investigating goldfinger. He is and international "businessman" who simply loves gold. He has stock piled millions of dollars of gold in various countries around the world. He plans to well, without spoiling to much, he plans on attacking fort knox (where the usa supply of gold is kept) to throw off the world enonomy and become even richer and more powerful. Generally acknowledged as one of the best bond movies of all time, you won't be dissapointed! As a side note my pick for best bond movie #2, casino royale.
