The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. The movie that made Sean Connery retire.
Honestly; I've never gotten Sean Connery's appeal. I get it, he was James Bond and he was in Highlander. Hunt For Red October was great as well. I've just never understood what makes him so significant when it seems to me that his movies are always carried more by the script and screenplay than they are his performance as an actor.
Sean Connery was in the absolute worst Sci-Fi movie that I've ever seen. This movie is what happens when a spectacular trailer for a movie rips you off and sells you poorly shined up shit. This movie is *cringe* Zardoz.
Watch this trailer, it's actually an awesome trailer:

The worst I could say about that is that it's vague and silly, but it's still intriguing. After watching that trailer I HAD to watch that movie. I mean; Sean Connery is in it! How bad can it be?!
This movie builds itself up, in the most confusingly boring manner I've ever seen a movie build to a potentially thrilling conclusion. This ENTIRE movie is Sean Connery wearing a loincloth while searching for answers, and a bunch of assholes who laugh at the fact that he's so stupid.
SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT!
I AM ABOUT TO SHARE THE INTENSELY INSIGHTFUL MEANING BEHIND THE FANTASTIC EVENTS OF ZARDOZ! PREPARE YOUR MIND TO BE BLOWN OUT OF THE BACK OF YOUR HEAD! ALL WILL BE CLEAR TO YOU! YOU SHALL ACHEIVE GODLIKE STATUS!
People who live in a dystopian future found a copy of The Wizard of Oz, and modeled their culture after that of the citizens of Oz. Zardoz is a portmanteau of Wizard and Oz.
