I can' t complain too much because this is a film from 1964 and the disc makes it look like a film from 1964. Compression artifacts are at a minimum and there was not a lot of film grain to be found. The film's original mono soundtrack is presented here. I found the sound on this disc to be loud, harsh and quite irritating. There were several times when my front center speaker just started to crackle and distort.
Dynamic range is naturally limited.
Dialog is generally smooth and clear but distorts from time to time. A French mono track is also included with English and French subtitles. Back in 1995, MGM had started giving the Bond films to their own individual special edition treatment. The first of these releases was Goldfinger. Almost as soon as they were started they were cancelled.
