Speaking of Bond, for me the best Agent 007 is Brosnan. Self-confident, elegant, equally convincing both as an action hero and as a seducer. And without the absurdities inherent in the movies with Conery, who occupy an honorable second place. And the movies themselves with Brosnan-Bond are very spectacular and dynamic. There's an interesting interaction with Michelle Yeoh's character, a villainous media mogul who meddles in politics, essentially holding all forms of power in his hands, and the film is generally very tonally balanced and doesn't feel like a dud.
As for Craig, he should be different. He was cast with the idea of ​​making Bond more down-to-earth and realistic due to the success of the Bourne films and Nolan's Batman, which proved that even a more fantastic hero could be made more convincing. And I would say that Craig is quite convincing in this capacity. Another thing is that later the public's tastes changed, incredible stunts and gadgets returned to the franchise and, in my opinion, it's time to change Bond again.
