Not sure how the OP saw it, but the R1 DVD has subtitles
I have to admit, its one of the first times I put an English speaking movie's subs onI had NO trouble with Cain, his friend & the police, but the "hoods" I had quite a time understanding what they were saying (oddly enough).

This thread is such a bunch of bs. I have trouble understanding the British language also. It has nothing to do with cultural differences or whatever. We Americans speak very slowly compared to other languages. And that is what we are used to. A lot of times I have to turn up the volume to understand something and it has to do with "me 'earing" not being what it used to be.

You didn't miss much, they weren't exactly reciting Shakespeare.

It's not that difficult. As an American, I generally understand about 90-95% of it. The rest is generally a mixture of unfamiliar slang, strong accents and fast-talking. I've known British (mostly English) people who have the same problem, especially with the less "flat" varieties of American English. It's not worth everybody getting so worked up over.

UMMMMMMMMMMM..
Watching DVD NOW, and the sub-titles work just fine. On your DVD remote, there is a button that is marked "subtitles". Try using it.
And yes, British accents are hard to understand.
Son, you can't polish a turd
