    it was a poor attempt at a transatlantic accent, to be nitpicky about it. and no, droog, it was no horrorshow.

      Who are you calling droog?
      And how do you know she was attempting a transatlantic accent? That one should be easier than an English accent even!
      Mouthal smell is a form of sensory input. See, if you listen carefully, you can hear the mouth.

        Jodie Foster was playing a french speaking woman, who speaks english, so her accent was deliberately weird and "bad". Kruger (Sharlto Copley) is from Johannesburg so his South African accent was natural.

              agreed. she was not only miscast in the role, but didn't put forth any appreciable effort into making her character plausible.

                Her performance was cartoonish and laughable. Way beneath her.

                  I guess Helen Mirren had already said no to the script?
                  Pointlessly sadistic plot/characterisation.

                      she did the same acting she did in INSIDE MAN, which is so annoying.
