Spain in particular was not happy with the second film’s portrayal of the country and UsefulNotes/PhilipII, with a critic calling him "a cackling, Spanish [[Franchise/FantasticFour Doctor Doom]]."

** King Philip's utterly strange gait, which makes him resemble a puppet or some kind of disabled person, destroys the character's gravitas whenever shown unobscured. It might cross into NarmCharm taking in account the rest of his quirks, but it still makes him look really silly.
** King Phillip in general, as the HistoricalVillainUpgrade and LargeHam performance makes him nearly impossible to take seriously. The film even bombed in Spain because of this, with one critic calling him "a cackling, Spanish [[Franchise/FantasticFour Doctor Doom]]."

As if many of his lines didn't sound like a awkward translation of some language that is neither English nor Spanish ("Impossible is not God..."), Mollà's performance, in an agonizingly slow tone marked by all sorts of random pauses and ups and downs, just finishes it.
