CASINO ROYALE is one of the truly great bad movies of all time.
As a satire of Bond films, CASINO is adequate; as a satire of the then trendy-swinging-cool-hip-with-it-now youth films of the era, it succeeds beautifully.

 Bright Lights Film Journal | Casino Royale, James Bond
What emerged was a kaleidoscope that utilized the original "serious" Ian Fleming novel, already given television treatment in 1954, as the core of a fabricated frame of plots and subplots that reduce the showdown between Bond (Sellers) and Le Chiffre (Orson Welles) at Casino Royale into the single dramatic moment of the opus.
Casino Royale is thus a metafilm on the process of the "real" Bond cinema, which, beginning with Goldfinger and You Only Live Twice, updated and altered Fleming's original novels until only character names and vague plot directions were employed.
Without the use of Connery's modern update however, Casino Royale taps directly into the messianic concept at the root of 007: Sir James is resurrected to save a blundering world with its collective fingers on the nuclear button, but extinguishes himself in the final battle, one that might lead humanity to a new beginning.
