Horrible British accents...."there is sumthing in the wah-tar"

πŸ™„πŸ˜’



English motherfucker, do you speak it!!? 🀬

So annoing, also for a non native English speaker as myself, pretty sure everyone that don't have English as their first language hate these brits and their mouths full of potatoes. Fucking impossible to understand and it sounds retarded as well.

Terrible movie and actors.

There was one conversation between the guys I missed completely. I needed subtitles. But that is the same in a Guy Ritchie movie. This movie is very good; it is no way terrible. And the actors are not terrible. You are sending the wrong message.

reply

Funny enough, if you look up the negative user reviews on imdb, most of them are complaining about the terrible acting.

reply

The cast other than the two leads are lackluster and they were disposed of entirely. I don’t know if it was performance or the way it was scripted or the parts were so small. A couple of them did have presence. The one guy was unintelligible. I did look at some of the IMDB reviews. They said thick, unforgettable. But you are saying more than that. You are saying it’s a terrible movie and that’s not true.

reply

"You are saying it’s a terrible movie and that’s not true"

tons of user reviews are saying exactly that:

On Rotten Tomatoes, audience ratings for verified purchase is 86% in 2500. On IMDB, ratings are 7.5 in 41K ratings. Your link shows reviews with search listed lowest rating scores first. If you look at chart, there are only 531 out of 41K that give it a 1 as opposed to 4.7K giving it a 10. Just hit the reverse and it will list way more positive ones with a lot of 10s and majority in the 8s (14K). You are just focused on the negative.

It doesn’t matter. Like it or don’t.

Since most films these days are crap compared to 90's 00's ...... people are easily pleased.

The negative reviews are spot on, clearly written by people who know what a good movie is.

i agree with them, because the points they make are valid. And most of the 10 star reviews are made by people who just wanted a popcorn flick with no brain behind it.

reply

There is no movie of this series that equals the brilliance of Alien. It is the one and only.

reply

Yeah, ok.. what the fuck did you smoke, that fucken guy had the worse british accent, .. "there's something in the wuh... in the fucken wuhh..." , and he got so fucken annoying, we were all hoping he'd die painfully and horribly..!

reply

You got the wrong poster.

reply

This sounds like a "you" problem

reply

Plenty of folks are saying the same..... both here on moviechat and on imdb.

So fuck "you"

Brits are all over US TV and film speaking in English accents (although sometimes they portray Americans).

reply

yes, and they suck.

i hate them, and i am European.

brits can make their own shitty tv shows, with their bad lighting and everything else

reply

>yes, and they suck.

You think, I don't know, Anthony Hopkins sucks? You think Toby Stephens sucks? Charles Dance? Rufus Sewell? Matt Smith?

reply

You didn’t like Peaky Blinders?

Brits do accents - Australian, Irish, Scottish, American - way better than Americans do accents except for the experts like Meryl Streep, Depp, Paltrow.

reply

I think you meant to reply to Tom

reply

I already did. But why do Anthony Hopkins, Charles Dance, Rufus Sewell suck - in your opinion.

reply

They don't. I asked if he thought they sucked. Since he has a disdain for all British actors I bought them up specifically.

reply

Ok. I misread it. And he didn’t answer you. Because he’s in β€œEurope.”

reply

Where in Europe?

reply

I have a few British fellas living under a bridge near me, one's actually become a hobo and is trying out that lifestyle. Both use very convincing American accents though, it's almost impossible to tell them apart from genuine American bums. Their horrible teeth are the only thing that gives them away, when I throw them a quarter and they smile I say, "yep it's a brit."

reply

Agreed - accents were very distracting and hard to decipher with all the un-necessary loudness happening as well.
