A lot of people don't like Roger Moore's James Bond (I wasn't fond of his Saint either; now I'd have loved to see Dalton handle the role of Simon Templar, come to think of it...), but I'm glad I'm not the only one to be less than taken by Sean Connery's version!
The casting for "Cromwell" is stellar and my reference books review it highly; I gather it is somewhat biased in favour of Cromwell (as ever, reflecting the politics of the date of production, plus a desire for revisionism) so I doubt Rupert as the rival cavalry general and the anti-Cromwell par excellence comes out of it all that favourably ;-)
