The Ugly Truth is that Gerard Butler can't act!


After we first fell under his spell in 300, has he ever lived up to his expectations? He can't speak properly (talking out the side of his mouth all the time) and this combined with his thick Scottish accent means that he can't deliver long lines of dialogue with any sense of sincerity.

That IS the truth, I had never seen this guy before, but then again I enjoy intelligent cinema. This film was garbage, but even worse was this actor that seemed stone faced and talking out of the side of his mouth, whoever casted this moron should've been shot in the face.

Once. In Dear Frankie.

Knock his acting, sure (it's bad), but not his natural accent. That's beautiful. 😊
