I believe this was the second film in the series, and it was the one whose popularity really sent the James Bond phenomenon into orbit. Admittedly, it doesn't benefit from the technology of 1999. Still, if you bear in mind that it's bells and whistles were extraordinary for 1964, you should be able to adjust your mindset. I might also point out that, because we weren't so tech driven back then, the story still was expected to drive a movie, and the plot of "Goldfinger" remains delightful escapist entertainment.
