"Casino Royale" from 1967 is a fun movie, even if I don't get the plot of them ovie. I still have fun with it. The film has five directors including John Huston and is written by eight screenwriters including an uncredited Billy Wilder. Let's start off with the music score by Burt Bacharach, which made my smile. The best thing about this film is the music score. Which could be said about a bad movie. But not "Casino Royale," which I happen to like. It's loaded with top movie stars like Peter Sellers, Ursula Andress, David Niven, Orsen Welles (I kid you not, he's in there), Woody Allen, among others. One person once said that "Casino Royale" is the worst movie that I ever enjoyed. I don't know about wrost movie, but I enjoy it a lot. Which makes "Casino Royale" a special movie.
