That's because there was seventeen years in-between where Brosnan brought in a dumbed-down Moore era.
It was indeed groundbreaking because for the first time in decades a Bond film wasn't afraid to shy away from "the formula". You know the formula that where you can bascally tick away boxes of things you expect to be there. Quite a few people told me that it felt much different than any other Bond films they've seen before.
I will say though that on first viewing it felt very different. I missed old Bond. BUT watching it again it feels like a bit of a hark back to the days of Sean Connery in terms of style.

GE is probably the best of the Brozza films, which isn't saying much. I watched it agan recently and it went up a few notches in my estimation, but it's nowhere near as good the early Connery and Moore flicks, Dalton's movies or any of Craig's 3 films.
At best, GE beats the weaker Connery and Moore flicks, and the rest of Brozza's garbage.
CR was better bc the whole movie. Was down to earth with no ridiculous plot but I like how u mentioned the lonely theme that plays throughout the movie. It meshes with the whole Bond in a post cold war world at the sarcasm capital Russia plot story element. It goes to show that quality counts in every element of a film. But of course even MC was tiired of the satellite acene asking how many times one man can save the worls. Plus the fight acene was unrealistic: Bond could not possibly grab on the Alec's leg like tha without dragging himself.
