Mark Kermode (a well-known film critic in the UK) asked this on a podcast a short while ago and it piqued my interest somewhat. What are your picks for best performances in bad movies?

Just a few off the top of my head...

- Michael Gough in Batman & Robin
- Jeremy Irons in The Time Machine
- Phillip Seymour Hoffman in Along Came Polly
- Charlize Theron in Monster

I think Monster was a pretty decent movie, considering the dense subject matter.

Recently, hmmm

Tom Hardy in Bronson.. he was brilliant. But the movie was painful to watch, I just wanted it to end asap.
