5. Sean Connery - The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
It'd be difficult to pick out an element of The League of Extraordinary gentlemen that didn't suck; on the whole, both as a movie and and adaptation, it was a complete and utter failure. Not only was it generally ill-concieved from the start, its production was also plagued with problems, the greatest of which was a flood that almost threatened to derail the movie entirely. Not exactly what you'd call ideal conditions for nurturing a performance right? But make no mistake, floods or no, LXG was never going to work thanks to some truly terrible scripting and some baffling, studio driven changes to the source material. Connery is... well he's there and he admittedly gives his character, Allan Quatermaine, a good go but with a project so poorly executed on the whole I'm not sure even Orson Welles could have made sense of what he was supposed to be doing. Considering that Sean Connery is a bona-fide cinema icon, LXG represents easily one of his most ordinary performances and with career as rich storied as his, that's saying something.
