Moore's 'Goldfinger', excellent in every way

To me, this has always been Roger Moore's 'Goldfinger': a brilliant James Bond film and one of the most definitive of the whole series. It really sets the standard.

When Russian and British nuclear submarines are stolen at sea, the two countries immediately assign their best agents to find out what happened. James Bond 007 and Russia's Major Amasova XXX try to track down those responsible before the other does. They are later ordered to join forces and stop the villain's larger plan escalating into world war.

This film has some of the most fantastic action and settings in the series. Unlike weaker Bonds, the story never comes second to needless stunts. It moves along at a spanking pace while feeling completely unhurried. A few have called it a 'remake of You Only Live Twice' but the film feels like nothing of the sort. Truly one to enjoy.
