![]() ![]() ![]() I absolutely loathed this movie! “Casino Royale” is an atomic train wreck, a film so incoherent it made me want to watch “Thunderball.” A movie so absurd, it makes “Die Another Day” look like “Doctor Zhivago.” It bamboozled me, it enraged me, it made me question the very fabric of cinema itself and, worst of all, it made the torture scene from “Casino Royale” (the good one) look like an appealing watch, at least when compared to this cocaine-fuelled, psychedelic nightmare! This is, without question, the worst movie I’ve seen this year (overthrowing the “Smokey and the Bandit” sequels), the worst James Bond film ever made and one of the worst films I’ve ever seen! ![]() So let’s not beat around the bush, we need to talk about “Casino Royale”… the 60s one, not the 2006 masterpiece (this is already getting confusing.) So, feeling enthusiastic, I set my sights on watching the only two 007 films that I’d never seen, “Casino Royale” (the 1954 TV oddity that infamously depicted Bond as American agent Jimmy Bond) and “Casino Royale”, the 1967 “spoof” of Connery’s early adventures. I recently decided to re-watch all of the official James Bond films before the release of “No Time to Die” (back when I naïvely believed that the movie would ever be released, ah those were the days…) It was a fun experience, gaining a newfound appreciation for the two Dalton instalments and surprisingly enjoying some of the Roger Moore ones. ![]()
