Potential Goof...Could someone clarify?


I was watching the part before they start filming and one of the Serbs approaches the main guy who was producing and say's "Ya mogu Pomoch." I speak some Russian and that is exactly how they say "I can help." Is that the same in Serbian? (These "terrorists" were supposed to be serbian not Russian so that should be a goof)

"Mogu pomoci" or "Mogu da pomognem" (c = ch) would be standard Serbian, but "Ja mogu pomoc'" is colloquial.

What bothers me is that they hired German actors to play Serbs. It's just... it doesn't feel right... I mean they don't come across like Serbs.

I thought both languages were similar, being cyrilic and all. Although Serbian sometimes gets called Serbian-latin, which confuses me.
