Is this really the best Bond movie of all time?


I hear that this movie is often considered to the best of the series, for both Sean Connery and the Bond series in general. Now granted, the movie did had its moments, like the awesome opening theme, the dialogue (No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die) or the action scenes. But what about From Russia with Love or Thunderball? Or other movies that come close to rivaling Goldfinger, like The Spy Who Loved Me, For Your Eyes Only, The Living Daylights, GoldenEye, Casino Royale, or Skyfall?

Yes it is. Ahead of From Russia With Love, Dr. No, and Casino Royale

Hard to take the thread seriously when OP cites Skyfall as one of the greats.

Goldfinger is ONE of the best but I like FRWL, Royal, and Goldeneye more. I rank Skyfall in the bottom four.

I sure wish the franchise was currently better. The last three have been wretched. I miss good 007 adventures.
