amy adams is awful
Her English accent isn't great; in fact her acting isn't that good at all. She looks like Catherine Tate, and I couldn't get passed that

Her English accent was perfect. I was actually surprised of how well she did it. And she nailed the role.
shareYes and monkeys have feathers. Go on...

shareNot what I meant and you know it... and technically that is but one feather. Now back to google you ;-)

Sorry but that's crazy - it was dreadful (and yes I am British (English)). I just tried to watch the film on tape; I'd heard of Adams but never seen her in anything and I wondered if perhaps she was Australian after hearing her jump around. That she was apparently supposed to be conning Bale is irrelevant - her accent had to sound good to US, not him.
In the end and for other reasons too I gave up but her wayward accent was one.

Only partly, as explained. fair enough; others have that view but also mine.

No, fully, and you and the others are wrong. Bale knows she's not British. The audience knows she's not British.
shareThanks for telling me how much I was watching - I wouldn't have known otherwise!

You're welcome. I was paying attention, it wasn't hard to follow the movie.
shareAmy Adams was great in this film. I seriously don't know what movie you were watching.
shareI also felt she was great in this movie and was unsure what everyone was complaining about.
Thing is....she really played against type perhaps moreso than anyone else in the film. Usually Amy plays the so-called good girl role. But not here. And a lot of people didn't like her. She's not supposed to be likeable. She's a con artist. You don't like her. Like I said before... She was great in the film.
Very perplexing. Though I respect her as an actress, I think she went a little over the top. I didn't buy her character for a second. And in her big scene with Jennifer Lawrence, JL just blew her away. It was merciless. I actually felt sorry for Amy Adams. To get blown away so bad by the new kid on the block.
shareYou must dislike her for other reasons because she did a great job in this movie .. one of the best .

I agree, she is so awkward and a terrible actress. I cant think of anything she was good in.
shareThere are endless cases like this because movies & the actors in them are so subjective. I've seen professional critics like Ebert & Bertanelli (sp?) review a movie.
One says the movie could have been great if only one scene was taken out. And the other says about the same scene....that scene made the movie excellent.
For some reason....the actress Carey Mulligan annoys me. I can't believe how many good roles she gets. And I'm sure she is some peoples favorite actress.
i feel sure tho that amy adams, catherine tate or even any of her more stupid characters could spell a one syllable word. duh
shareWhat the hell? The woman is pretty much good in anything she touches. Like someone else said she lights up every performance.
I gotta go feed that thing in Room 33.
