Vinny D's accent


Can someone who is more familiar with the coach being portrayed or just the language itself tell me if D' Onofrio's accent is as awful as it sounds...

omG! It was so horrible, I was in agony listening to his horrible attempt at speaking English in a Brazilian accent. I don't know much about the coach he was portraying but I do know the Brazilian accent and his was incredibly bad. He should have just spoken English normally, since everything else was in English. It's like the hollywood said, "Well we can't have this biography in its original Portuguese but what we can do is give all these people acting in it Brazilian accents when they speak English!" I can actually imagine they we're super proud of themselves...in which I am beyond disappointed.

What a great comment
Since there is no reason to rebuttal someones opinion, if you enjoyed the way the actor portrayed his lines, that is great.
Now how about you go do that and try to be more comprehensive to other peoples opinions
Thank you.

For someone who doesn't like to judge harshly, you have done so of me.
If you felt that way about my comment, there is nothing to say to make it otherwise.
I don't care to know you nor explain my opinion to you.
Saw the thread thought I'd give my two cents like all the rest without being criticized about it.
Have a wonderful weekend Jayroo

I agree with you. I thought his accent was quite terrible.
Considering all the possible actors in this world, considering the amount of money involved and what he's paid, I was shocked he was considered the best person for the role.
