Goldfinger

Third movie in the series.  MUCH better than Dr. No.  Pacing, story move along.  Goldfinger is oddly cast. Chubby redhead who seems like a realtor, not a dastardly villain.

Music really moves this one.  The score creates drama in mundane scenes of driving here and there. Honor Blackman as Pussy Galore--odd character with no discernible motivation for anything she does or doesn't do.  Two Masterson girls are both killed. James gets over it with amazing alacrity.

It is very unclear why they don't just kill him--they have innumerable opportunities. Oh, well.  The genre.

Netflix Lincoln Lawyer

 Just a long yawner.  Acting was fine; there just wasn't nearly enough plot to carry 10 episodes.  Tech guy accused of killing wife.  LL takes on the case after the tech lawyer's first lawyer is murdered.  Mickey Haller gets the guy off . . . trick is the guy is guilty.  He used a drone to dispose of bloody clothes.  Subplot Maggy McFierce trying to get a conviction of a human trafficker.  She loses but then wins.  The divorced couple almost gets back together, but they are on opposite sides of the adversarial process and work comes first.  Won't be in a hurry to watch Season 2

Brotherhood

 Showtime -- Providence, two brothers, one aspiring politician the other a crook.  Totally different, but not so much.  Cop (close friend as child) is investigating crooked brother.  Pretty good series.
