He was awful and completely ridiculous in "Apocalypse". Husband and I turned to each other as the credits rolled and simultaneously said, "Brando got PAID for that?"
"Last Tango" was when I really noticed that he was just phoning it in, but the critics were still in worship mode.

Thank you. Brando is so overrated it's not even worth talking about his later career. Frankly, I put him in the same category as Humphrey Bogart [same character every time], Marilyn Monroe ["comedic genius?" seriously?], and Orson Welles [probably the most overrated man in Hollywood.]
In some circles you just can't say anything negative about Brando and the other three, and all four of them are made of the same fabric as an Emperor's New Clothes.
