How could anyone watch this movie without subtitles?


I couldn't understand a word John said.

I understood everything without subtitles

Most of the time I leave subtitles on.

For some odd reason, I can understand everything he says. But I can't say the same for other "accents". Most of the time, I can't understand them worth a damn. EM is a great film though. In fact, I'm surprised it's not at least in the top 50 on the IMDB top 250 list. Right now it's sitting at 160. Not too bad but come on, it should be higher than this.
