I had the same experience with Benedict Wong. Previously, I had only known him from Marco Polo, and Doctor Strange. Then I watched Three Body Problem, and it's like "Wait a minute, he's British?"

Conversely, I remember watching Black Hawk Down, hearing Jason Isaacs, Ewan McGregor, Ioan Gruffudd, and a fuckton of others and thinking "Who the gently caress thought these accents were passable?"

Also Jaime Lannister (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) was in it too.

Ty Burrel was in it as a PJ (the one joking about margaritas).

You know he’s British because he’ll just do one for the money.

A lot of the cast of that movie isn’t American and it’s really obvious on the ears. See also: Eric Bana and Orlando Bloom. Tom Hardy and Hugh Dancy were okay.

Bad Irish accents in film are an incredibly long-running joke because pretty much no actor ever has done a good one.
Angelica Huston spent her teens in Ireland, so she gets a pass, and Steve Coogan's family is Irish, he's a tremendously good mimic, and he spent a lot of childhood holidays here - his very specific mountain sheep farmer impression is perfection, not just the accent, but the whole manner.
Jamie Dornan got a lot of mockery for Wild Mountain Thyme because his Irish accent in it was awful (he's a Nordie and it's set in, I think Mayo, so a couple hundred miles and about 15 accents away)

On the list of surprises I was surprised that Michael Fassbender was Irish.

For Blessed entertainment value here's a Graham Norton segment bursting with accents: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pmZmUzhx9w

Graham Norton is awesome & I remember being blown away that James McAvoy had such a strong Scottish accent. Funny as hell too, love seeing his interviews & interactions wit other actors :)

Back in high school I was a big fan of the group Asia, particularly John Wetton's vocals and bass. I recently came across this video from just a couple of years before he died, belting out one of their hits backed by a rock orchestra, and there's just so much going on behind him. It put a smile on my face. He's around 65 years old in this clip
