Despite all the talent, Casino Royale isn’t just bad, it’s tedious. Let’s see, we have David Niven, Deborah Kerr, Peter Sellers, Woody Allen, Orson Welles and William Holden behind the scenes there’s Wolf Mankiewicz’s writing and Val Guest and John Huston, among others, directing.
Few movies have wasted as much talent as the 1967 film adaptation of Casino Royale.
