I also liked Dalton's portrayal of Bond.
Brosnan is possibly my favourite Bond, and
GoldenEye possibly my favourite Bond film, but it's hard for me to choose a favourite, and MUCH easier for me to say who I'm not keen on.
I'm not a fan of Moore and Craig's characterisation of Bond (Moore = too slimy; Craig = let's copy the Bourne films because they were doing well at the time Casino Royale was being made).
Craig playing Bond just doesn't feel like Bond. A Bond film is
supposed to be a bit campy and cheesy and rife with double entendre's and silly gadgets. The grittier style of the Craig era just casts a shadow over what was once a fun franchise, for me; creating what is in essence a stale generic action film: Both Fleming and 'Cubby' Broccoli would be spinning in their respective graves!
