<p dir="auto">I'm English and I had no problem with Sharlto Copley's accent, admittedly I hadn't heard a lot of the slang words before but I understood their inference from the other words in his sentences.<br />
Of recent movies some accents I have had difficulty with were the 'Coon Ass' character in Fury, far too much mumbling, 'Wink' in Beasts Of The Southern Wild, whose dialogue to me was mostly unintelligible and as another poster has said the 'Bane' character in The Dark Knight Rises.<br />
This means something, this is important.</p>

<p dir="auto">I know plenty of south african people, this just sounded like a bad parody and it seemed to get worse every minute. In general all the accents sounded really off, like they were trying to go for some kind of futuristic lingo like in after earth but equally failed in the execution.</p>

<p dir="auto">English is not may language but I usually watch movies in english without subtitles, some accents give me a hard time scottish, welsh, southern US but if this a south african accent, then I guess it's the one I'm having the biggest problem with! It's  the first time that I hear a south african accent and to me it sounded "fake", totally made up <img src="https://filmglance.com/discuss/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f642.png?v=8570fb93240" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--slightly_smiling_face" style="height:23px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=":-)" alt="🙂" /> , but then again, as I said, I am not a native english speaker. No offence meant to anyone.<br />
Someone mentioned "Fury" that's one I should have watched with subtitles, I found it very hard to understand.<br />
"Please, if you are trying to convert me, this isn't a good time"</p>

<p dir="auto">Well, the actor IS South African. And he had a South African accent. Is that strange?</p>
