(I have not seen them but) I feel Pierce Brosnan was born at the wrong time. So much of the cinema in the 90s was so campy. Just comparing 90s Bond to modern Bond, there’s a big difference in tone. Then again, maybe it’s actually his preference; he did do Mamma Mia after all. I can just imagine him as a more serious actor and would love to see it. How does the Thomas Crowne Affair rank in that way?

It definitely is not (as) campy as his Bond films. But I would say it has a certain “90s-ness” to it, and realism / believability suffers because of it. But overall, a good film and very worthy of a watch.
