Movie Review:
The third in the long line of Bond movies, this is the movie that really
started "Bond Mania" and sparked many similar spy stories in the 1960s.
This movie, which is based on the novel by Ian Flemming, is done quite
well. This is also the first Bond where the use of the "Bond gadgets"
first comes in. While From Russia with love did have a few gadgets,
nothing can compare Bond's Aston Martin DB 5, which has bullet proof body
and glass, tracking device, machine guns, smokescreen, oil slick, an ejector
seat, rotating license plate and grinders in the wheels. This movie
is considered by many including myself to be one of the best bond movies
ever.
Extras Review:
Like all of the bond DVDs, this one is chalked full of every extra
imaginable. Two newly created Documentaries for Goldfinger, the original
featurette, original tv ads, radio ads, trailers, and more. And of
coarse it contains the Collectible "Making-Of" Booklet like all of the
Bonds.
Video and Sound Quality:
Like Dr No. video is somewhat grainy but looks fairly good considering
its almost 40 years old. Audio is nothing to get excited about but
once again is good for its age. |
