He overacted the part, as he pretty much always does and it IS a bad movie but it's fantastic at the same time
He was meant to camp it up.
As for being bad, True Romance, Leon and both new Batman movies prove otherwise .

The Replacements is a pretty rubbish film by most standards but I could quite happily watch it every week of the year, I don't even know why really, it stars Keanu Reeves who has an emotional range that makes Steven Seagal look accomplished and yet I still love it.

For that matter I actually enjoy most of Steven Seagal's films too, they're almost universally poor in some sense but I can still watch them without any qualms.

Umm.. yes. Surely the name Zod, the hairstyle and all was a give away as to how cliche and overblown the character was?

You're probably right. In which case, Hammy Oldman was perfect for the role

I know quality when I see it, old bean

Joking aside, this is one of those threads where personal preference and opinion will always differ wildly - it's fascinating to see people destroy films you love or just simply enjoy watching and defend films you detest or think very poor.

Absolutely. Hence I know I'm going to be a bit of a martyr with my Star Wars trilogy comment.

Star Wars really is utter space opera schlock. The first film is the worst of them all for it.

I really can't help but love it though.
