It's funny, Stamp's Zod is iconic as hell and one of my all-time favorite movie villains... but when I watch those movies now I'm struck by the fact he's not really the brightest or most sophisticated villain (especially with how easily he's duped by Superman at the end). And he basically comes across as just a simple thug with a cool English accent.
I do love how utterly bored he looks with everything through the entire movie though.
