So many will say James Bond, so to be different I have to go with Derek Flint of "Our Man Flint" The original spy spoof way before Mike Meyers did it in "Austin Powers"

daniel herrera · 1 year ago

thats easy it would have to be the alfred hitchcock movie secret agent with john gielgud (the funny butler from arthur)

CapKwik · 1 year ago

Well Jason Bourne is probably the most badass spy out there. He doesn't need gadgets or a sidekick. All he needs is instinct and wit. Now I'm not as badass as Bourne, so I do need the gadgets to get my spy career going.

Linda Fiorentino's portrayal of the double (triple?) secret agent "Sasha" in the movie "Gotcha!" SEXY!

I like the two for one - Nick Charles with his wife Nora (and dog Asta) MGM's The Thin Man (1934).

jason bourne...he's the greatest

D-Rock · 1 year ago

Since everyone is against saying it, I will be the first to admit to it...James Bond...honestly who didn't immediately think of Bond, he is the definition of secret agent

Chappa · 1 year ago

i have to go with james bond. the connery one.

Dena Oliphint · 1 year ago

I still have to say Agent 86 the original (Don Smart). I used to watch GET SMART everyday after school. It has brought back some great memories.

Theo · 1 year ago

Bond, James Bond is too easy. I'm not sure if it count's as "cinematic" but I've always been partial to Sydney Bristow from Alias.

Sami · 1 year ago

The first one to come to my mind is Austin Powers, so I guess it must be him.

Matt · 1 year ago

I'm gonna go with Maxwell Smart...that will get me the grand prize...right?

James Bond

Clouseau! Thanks, Cindi

James Bond is the best, considering its legacy. Bourne is just awesome. But, Danger Mouse is my favorite. ;)

Matt Helm. You can't get more hip than Dean Martin.

Emmett Fitz-Hume from "Spies Like Us".

David · 1 year ago

I've been always fond of Clouseau from "The Pink Panther" series, because not only was he clumsy, and bumbling, but he still got the job done.

John · 1 year ago

Clouseau from A Shot in the Dark with the amazing Peter Sellers. If anyone says anything vaguely similar to Steve Martin in his Pink Panther then they should automatically be banned from this comment list.

uglier casanova · 1 year ago

not sure if it should count, but Lemmy Caution from Alphaville. he was so ridiculously cool.

loquaciousmuse · 1 year ago

Does Mr. Green in Clue count?? "I'm going home to sleep with my wife." Yes you will, Michael McKean. Yes you will. Know why he's the best? Cause you NEVER KNEW. Don't try to pretend you knew he was undercover. You had no idea.

If Mr. Green is number one...I'm gonna go with Jason Bourne for number two. Cause he's just about as badass as it gets.

Navs · 1 year ago

I really hope this doesn't suck.

Beth · 1 year ago

Cinematic secret agent? Well, I loved Angelina Jolie as "Jane Smith" in Mr and Mrs Smith... In a similar vain, I'm a big fan of Harry Tasker (and, at the end of the film, Helen Tasker) in True Lies (Ahnold and Jamie Lee Curtis).

Anne · 1 year ago

Jason Bourne is my ultimate favourite secret agent! I don't usually find Matt Damon very attractive, but as Jason Bourne, "droooool".

James Bond is the ultimate spy

hanzabean · 1 year ago

Is Jack Bauer close enough to being a secret agent? Haha. Too bad the X-Files wasn't secret, because Mulder is pretty much my favorite character of all time. Anyway, I guess I have to go with... Johnny English (also, a quick look at wikipedia has Jack Bauer listed as a secret agent. Well! I guess my love for Rowan Atkinson wins out, however awesome J.B. may be).

So, that leaves me with Bond, James Bond and, of course, the Sean

Nikki Evans · 1 year ago

I really think Jason Bourne... even though he lost his memory, he remembered the basics and kick some major butt... I just think he is the best for my money and as far as for fun I would have to pick Austin Powers, but I don't think he was very good at keeping the fact that he was a secret agent a secret! LOL!

Erica L · 1 year ago

Who doesn't immediately think of James Bond? Isn't every secret agent compared to Bond? Johnny English is a fabulous parody though!

Azadeh · 1 year ago

I'd have to say Connery's James Bond, in terms of spy agent. Sure, Closeau and Smart bring undeniable humor to the screen, but Bond's real aim is to bring action. Which, he definitely does.
