What the hell kind of accent is Eccleston supposed to be doing in this!? It starts off as that bad 1920s NY gangster accent, which is apparently what we sound like to British people, but by the end it sounds more vaguely English.
Christopher Eccleston without the Manchester accent is like David Tennant without the hair. Just sad.
@Jeriba: As far as I can tell, based on years of television viewing, to Britons all Americans sound like a) they're from Georgia, or b) that obnoxious tourist in that one Fawlty Towers episode who wanted the Waldorf Salad.
@Jay042: "Didn't Trey Parker and Matt Stone already do this movie?"
Amen to that. Both this and Transformers seem like exactly the bad action films they made fun of in Team America. They're almost so bad they're a parody themselves. Yet they're just too stupid to be funny, to me at least. Too bad they had to take down what could have been decent movies for this generation's kids based on shows for 80s generation kids. As bad as GI Joe and Transformers got at times, it still seemed more respectable than this trash.

I miss you more then Michael Bay missed the mark
When he made Pearl Harbor
I miss you more than that movie missed the point
And that's an awful lot girl
And now, now you've gone away
And all I'm trying to say is
Pearl Harbor sucked, and I miss you...
Why does Michael Bay get to keep on making movies?
I guess Pearl Harbor sucked
Just a little bit more than I miss you
