Connery is objectively the best, but having grown up with Brosnan as Bond I think he's my actual favorite. I also like Dalton a lot (The Living Daylights and particularly Licence to Kill are movies I still have fun rewatching), and find Craig excellent as well.

It's perhaps unfair to judge Lazenby on the basis of a single film - though I've never liked OHMSS anyway outside of Diana Rigg and the ending -, and Moore I simply can't stand nor take seriously as Bond.

At their Peak- Craig
Overall - Connery

but they are both extremely close in both categories and they both have acted in the top 6 Bond Movies ever:1. Skyfall, 2. Goldfinger, 3. Casino Royale, 4. From Russia With Love, 5. Thunderball, 6. Dr. No.

I really do feel like he was the most consistent and safe one out of them all to invest in

Lazenby suffered doubly from having to replace Connery and being stuck in OHMSS, which plotwise is one of least Bond-stereotypical films.  Tracy outshone James and James got all weepy over her., which isn't what Bond fans were looking for. Perhaps the film would've been better received if the original intention of using the final scene of the film as the opening sequence of DaF, which was scuppered by decision to switch actors again.

George Lazenby was the first and only James Bond to get married and lose his wife on film.

Sean Connery. I grew up with Pierce Brosnan and I really enjoyed his style too.
