Benedict Cumberbatch makes an awesome Smaug and Sherlock, but his Khan was just "meh". There's no way to top Ricardo Montleban. Boba Fett was cooler in the original trilogy, too!
I have to agree with Airdave on this.
In my eyes the problem is how these two actors approached the duality of Khan.
The original Khan was a incredibly intelligent man with a beast in him that he kept barely leashed. Even when he acted perfectly polite and in control, I had the impression that he could pounce a tear apart everyone in the room with ease. There wasn't a full duality it was more of natural progression of Khan's personality.
Cumberbatch instead protrayed a fully bipolar character. There is a more clean cut line between the two halves of his performance that somehow ruins the final result.
Yeah, Montalban owned the character and not even a talent as versatile as Cumberbatch can't match him. FWIW, I think he did a better job than if they'd cast someone who was more a Montalban "type." That would have been really bad.
One's a genetically enhanced warlord, the other's a bounty hunting clone. What wacky shenanigans will they get up to now? :D
