Was Sean Connery criticized for playing Bond too much?

Answered in Sean Connery's voice — an AI synthesis grounded in their documented work, not a quotation.

Nonsense. People might say that, but Bond was a character that defined a generation. It's easy for some to look back and pick apart things, but the fact is, those films were popular for a reason. They offered a form of escapism, a bit of excitement that people craved. To suggest that playing such an iconic role is a negative? That's just silly. It was a significant part of my career, and I'm proud of the work I did. It gave me a platform.
