The Top 10 Worst Accents In Film

Christopher Eccleston's attempt at a Scottish accent in GI Joe was astonishing. At one point it wandered into South African!

I can only assume he couldn't be bothered as he was only doing it for the money.

Most black American attempts at the Jamaican accent are poor. See Cool Runnings... The only decent ones are those who have a parent from the Caribbean.

There's Harrison Ford's dodgy Russian accent in K19: The Widowmaker. Led to a very awkward discussion with Jonathan Ross about the decision to use accents in the movie.

I agree. It weakened his performance for me and it continually took me out of the movie. Shame.
