I actually felt that Pa Kent was one of the stronger elements of the movie, especially considering the stellar performance Kevin Costner gave. Sure, he seemed confused about how to best help his son, wrestled with his own morality in face of the bigger issues at hand, and generally seemed constantly conflicted with the what he hoped for Clark and the bigger picture. At the end of the day, all that just makes him incredibly. . . human. 

To me they really achieved that which makes the Kents so important to the Superman mythos. They humanized Clark Kent.

Oh, I didn't mean that Pa Kent annoyed me, what I meant was that the way he died annoyed me. But again, it only bothered me the tiniest bit, before I went back to enjoying the rest of the film.
