What to Know

Critics Consensus

Goldfinger is where James Bond as we know him comes into focus - it features one of 007's most famous lines ("A martini. Shaken, not stirred.") and a wide range of gadgets that would become the series' trademark.

Penelope Houston Sight & Sound Goldfinger allows nothing to impede its sense of humour: it converts Bond into a human equivalent of the cat in the Tom and Jerry cartoons, with the same ghastly resilience and the same capacity for absorbing punishment. Jul 6, 2018 Full Review Wanda Hale New York Daily News It's phenomenal! Rated: 4/4 Dec 21, 2015 Full Review Eric Shorter Daily Telegraph (UK) Ours not to reason why with "Goldfinger"; ours but to gape and admire; which is very easy and enjoyable until the story's iceberg of extravagance finally appears in its true proportions. Feb 2, 2014 Full Review Don Shanahan Cinephile Hissy Fit Podcast This is the template borrowed and measured against for the entire franchise for a reason several decades and incarnations later. Dec 27, 2024 Full Review David Parkinson Radio Times Endlessly entertaining and effortlessly performed, it's packed with classic moments. Rated: 5/5 Aug 8, 2024 Full Review Sarah Cortinaz InSession Film Bond is grittier in this action role while still holding on to his sleek and handsome charm. But more importantly, the Bond girls change, definitely for the better. Apr 23, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

John T. I can see why this was the first true blockbuster Bond film. Goldfinger is THE classic villain and Oddjob is a classic henchman. Memorable backdrops of Miami, London, Geneva and Kentucky, this film drops you right into the 60s and doesn’t let go. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/04/25 Full Review Mike B. Classic Bond in his prime. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/28/25 Full Review Garry A I didn't like this one as much as the first two films. The action scenes are good. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/26/25 Full Review Audience Member The pinnacle of Bond, a genre defining Epithet. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/02/25 Full Review Daniel C. M Goldfinger still remains the quintessial Bond film, even Casino Royale or Skyfall can't compare to the sheer enjoyement this film can transmit. Started many of the tropes of Bond and spy movies in general we all know and love. Features a much better pacing than it's predecessors, and it generally manages to make it the most out of it's runtime than probably every other Bond movie, as they all typically start to run off steam through the final act. Featuring great gadgets; humor; one of the best Bond girls to grace the silver screen, alongside pretty much every single other major character here, all being extremely memorable and full of charisma. Definite must watch. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/04/25 Full Review James P Prime Sean Connery, busty hottie Honor Blackman and THE classic Bond car. Goldfinger is almost perfect.
