Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): It is totally unnecessary for Bond to kill the snake in his hotel room, as it is a non-poisonous species, not to mention the fact that the snake is far enough away when he sees is that Bond can just as easily avoid it rather than kill it.

Roger Moore's first Bond film is a pretty good start. The plot is really the only thing keeping this one alive. The humor is pretty good too. Overall not Roger Moore's best, but it works. The other high point is in the film is the theme song played by Paul McCartney and Wings. Its definitely one of the best Bond theme song ever written. It's also interesting the return of Guy Hamilton as director (Goldfinger (1964)and eventually The Man With Golden Gun (1974) and he also has a cameo in the film too. It's funny watching these older Bond films, this one came out 9 years before I was born and Jane Seymour, is probably the hottest Bond girl in the series, I feel funny saying that because now she's Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman. The film also makes some careful selected racial jokes that are really funny. Definitely a good film.
