I know theres loads of film threads but debating watching this later.

Is it any good and does it require a lot of concentration as I'm knackered?

Jennifer Connelly is awful, and Leo's accent is just plain wierd. Worth it just for Djimon Hounson though

I watched it last week, pretty good but didn't like the female character in it 7/10 oh and a bit gruesome at the start according to my wife!

I thought the accent was very good, try doing a South African accent yourself!

Or Zimbabwean.

I thought it was a great film actually ignoring the dodgy accents.

I knew a guy from Zimbabwe and the accent is much the same as South African. I think I can do it pretty well. Dude, white bread or brown bread?

It was quite a good film and there's nothing wrong with the accents. How the fuck do people think people talk in Southern Africa?Huh?

The accent was spot on. I know a few South Africans.
