"Perhaps it's the believability of the characters. There was no attempt by the filmmakers to have their actors sound plausible. For instance, Jude Law, Joseph Fiennes and Rachel Weisz all play Russians.....with a British accent! Ed Harris plays a German with an American accent! Come on! Everyone sounded so phony it took away from the story."
Come on! That's quite a dumb comment! Should the Russians speak English with a Russian accent, the Germans with a German accent?! They are supposedly speaking their own language. The Russians and Germans have no accent when they speak their language. That's stupid. The fact that Hollywood introduced accents for people supposedly speaking their own language in English speaking movies is just primitive. "Sounded so phony"? Giving them some fake accent, that's phony!
