Trailer—Casino Royale

In an early spy spoof, aging Sir James Bond comes out of retirement to take on SMERSH. I hate to say that I did not really enjoy this movie. But based on the IMDb rating, I apparently am not alone in that. While I like the idea of a spy spoof, this one just seemed to flop for me. Maybe it was because too many writers and directors were involved, but the plot was too confusing and ran for much too long. Did we need seven James Bonds? No. Granted, we have a great cast: Peter Sellers, Orson Welles, Woody Allen and others. And some of the jokes were pretty funny. But trying to keep the plot straight was just too difficult.
