Bad Movie Watch: Day 34

Movie: Casino Royale

Year: 1967

Budget: 12 Million

Plot: This a spoof of the James Bond series, in which it does follow the plot of the book (er somewhat) however it differs because their are different people playing Bond.

Review: Despite it being a spoof, it was alright but it was cheesy regardless. However keep in mind this is where you got spy spoofs and such entering the scene. The other movie that is like this is Never Say Never Again which I already covered. This and Never Say Never Again were the only two non-Eon productions due to the copyright stuff going on so if you wanted to make a Bond spoof you got to tread carefully.

Additional Info: There is another Casino Royale but this one is from the 1950’s and it’s from the anthology series known as Climax! And it’s hard to find so if you can find it on youtube or have a DVD copy of the 1967 Casino Royale (It’s on it as a bonus feature) those are your two options.

Edit: I don’t have a gif for it so here is Timothy Dalton’s Bond instead.
