Re: Enemy at the Gates-farcical
Not the worst I'll grant you
I can put up with history being re-worked to suit the script
but I won't put up with the wrong accent
Even dubbing with subtitles would have been better than this pile of baloney
Only Bob Hoskins attempts an accent
No idea how much american invovlement...my hollywoofd referencewas a stab in the dark at the culprits...they do seem to take these kind of short cuts....Tony Curtis & Kevin Costner being the 2 I remember vividly
When is a 'Star' so big he/she need not ACT the entire part?
cheers

When he/she is capable of giving their studios, investors and increasingly themselves a $30m opening weekend by merely being themselves, presumably.
Next month Brad Pitt is Troy - though judging from the trailer Troy is Brad Pitt.

Re: Enemy at the Gates-farcical
Most of those Movie viewers wouldn't know the Story of Troy anyway
The type that say I've seen the film and one day might read the book
Epic tales are great but todays efforts with few exceptions don't hold a candle to yesteryear efforts...I'll take a cast of thousands over computer generated images anyday
To much reliance on special effects & mindless violence IMO in films of the past 25 years
Troy Looked like the next big project after LOR...when I see an Aussie like Eric Bana(at least he's not attempting an American accent this time) in the cast I know their taking the mickey and like you say riding on
the Big Name to make it a success
cheers

Re: Enemy at the Gates-farcical
What is all accents business. Are you telling me that Enemy at the Gates was a bad movie because they didn't have Roooshian accents?
