Some movies age well, some dont. "Goldfinger" is to be found somewhere in between, because...
... it is still an interesting action classic but only enjoyable for sentimental reasons, because the action is hilariously clumsy and painfully outdated for nowadays standards.
But it still is a cute spy classic. If you wanna watch one of the older Bond movies THIS is the one to see. The best of the golden oldies.
The Bond theme song by Shirley Bassey has NOT been outdated however. That song is still THE greatest Bond song EVER! What a power! We have to thank composer John Barry for that!
Bond Music from the sixties has got an ambient sound to it that makes current recordings sound bland. Shirley Bassey's themesong sounds so sparkling, sharp and has got such a gloriously cathedral sound. If only for the soundtrack I would wanna watch this movie again and again...
