James Bond Movie Review: ****Goldfinger (1964)

 With a bad guy in Goldfinger (Gert Fröbe) and a henchman in Oddjob (Harold Sakata) this movie is filled with action.  James Bond (Sean Connery) is provided with a special car by Q (Desmond Llewelyn) (which becomes a Bond trademark).  Of course M (Bernard Lee) and Moneypenny (Lois Maxwell) play their normal roles. Early on Goldfinger has Oddjob kill two Bond girls so we know he is really bad.  Goldfinger has hatched a plan to attack Fort Knox and contaminate the gold with a nuclear bomb, making his gold even more valuable.  It is only Bond's prowess with women that turns Pussy Galore (Honor Blckman) into a help rather than an enemy as she informs people what is happening as Bond is always watched and cannot communicate with his men.  This Bond movie does not disappoint and has plenty of action.
