The weekly screenings of the entire official James Bond saga hits its third week, and the movie that did so much to establish the successful formula for the franchise - Goldfinger.
The previous two movies felt a little split down the middle, involving some fairly grounded, believable spycraft and ideas but also fights against shadowy global cabals and larger than life nemeses. Here, the grounded and believable parts are thrown out of the window altogether, and we settle on a tone that feels more like modern Bond to someone like me.
