Hollywood has rarely managed to cast actors who can offer an authentic, specific Caribbean accent - which is to say, an accent from a specific Caribbean country (as there are dialectic groups that does not resolve to "one size fits all"). To dismiss it as "they're all the same to me" is insulting.
What is a "Southern" accent? People in Georgia sound plenty different from people in Mississippi. Scots and Irish and Welsh ain't the same; Norwegian, Finnish, Icelandic and Swedish ain't the same; Spanish and Portuguese ain't the same, nor Italian and Greek (shucks, some Italians will make damn sure you don't call them Sicilian, and vice versa).
Is there an "Asian accent"? Are North and South Korea as good as the other? Are Chinese and Vietnamese or Japanese and Taiwanese the same?
How, then, should Bahamian, Trini, Jamaican and US Virgin Islander get painted with one brush?
This was one film that (finally) showcased an authentic Jamaican accent...but he's not listed on the cast list. Whap'm? Wha' gwan?
