Not a movie, but Dennis Hopper's accent in 24.

Elysium was shite to begin with, but Jodie fosters accent doomed it down to a parodic level

Both would qualify however it didn't really ruin the movie. If you disagree then Fine, Forget it

The guy who played Quicksilver in Ultron needs to fricking die. That was an awful Russian accent.


That was the main actor from Kick-arse. He married a much older woman and hyphenated his last name to take on her last name. Weird dude.

Quaid's accent was terrible, but the movie was still good.

I've heard Keanu Reeves has bad fake accents too but I don't think I've seen any movies where he played a foreigner.

Ever seen Devils Advocate?
The HDTGM episode on it is incredibly awesome.

Suck it. When I read Red October, I picture Ramius as Sean Connery, accent and all.

James Bond can be Russian if he wants too.

Just watched a clip, what kind of accent was that supposed to be?

She did a pretty good British accent in Anna and the King.

She's mocking him. That's the point of her line. I've heard a lot of people talk about her momentary British accent, and they don't seem to understand that.

Charlize Theron in Bagger Vance is the second worse southern accent I've heard. That clip of The Big Easy reminded me what the worst is.

Dennis Quaid in The Big Easy. Ridiculous.


Sounds like he spent a day drinking with old men in Vacherie to nail the accent.

The movie was already shite, but Robert Downey Jrs accent in Danger Zone is really, really bad.
