Fake Irish accents is a pet hate we just can't seem to get enough of here in Facts. We turned our attention to Hollywood this time. There were COUNTLESS versions we could have discussed, but these were the most interesting finds we came across. Let the cringing begin!

"You can tell she's not an Irish woman, she would have murdered him by now."
I'M CRYING.
IM SO DONE OMl whAT!
As an Irish person living in Ireland I can confirm even though it's extremely rare to see an Irish person with ginger hair. You don't fuck with an Irish woman unless you are looking for a death wish .
Ollie Hernandez so true don't get me mad or I will natter the shite outa ya
catgoddness ahahaha sureeeee coz an Irish woman would kill ya lol no they wouldn't 😂 it's just a joke lol
Well i might but others might not
I love the fact that they all understood Brad Pitt's nearly incomprehensible accent in Snatch. I love that character, and Pitt did so well with it.
I still have no idea what BP was saying! I was hoping they'd interpret for me (other than something about a caravan and cornflower blue - everything else was just not words in my ears) =)
+TemeryN If Brad wins, his mum gets a caravan, and the boys get a pair of them shoes. And his mum is terribly partial to the periwinkle blue.
Are you Irish?
You realize that if you buy the disc that it actually has an option for "Pikey" subtitles :P
In certain parts of Ireland some people do speak like that so we can make it out fairly easy :'D
I always said that Brad Pitt nailed the "pikey" accent. It's impressive how incoherent he sounds but he gets the traveller mannerisms perfect too. "I'llfightchaforit". Who in Ireland hasn't heard a traveller try to resolve a situation by saying that?
+GerryBolger Are they all good fighters?
+Animals Mistaken for Monsters A few of them are, a lot of them think they are..
+Animals Mistaken for Monsters They've turned out some good'ns but the majority of them fight as badly/well as you'd expect anyone to. They just sound 5 times as unintelligent while they do it.
not just Ireland mate I took a shortcut home from college and genuinely had a traveler stop me and say il fight you for your socks, literally pissed my self laughing in his face (he was not amused so I cycled home quickly)
+GerryBolger Traveller--that's what you guys call gypsies, right?
Sean Connery is a master when it comes to accents, he can do American Scottish, English Scottish, Russian Scottish, Irish Scottish, Egyptian Scottish, even Scottish Scottish and so on!
RevanAlaire you forgot Sean Scottish XD
sorry but no. his irish is just awful.
You lost me at egyptian scottish
He really is.. xD
But he just can’t do Irish
Sean Connery has been a Scottish Arab Sheik, a Scottish Irish Cop, a Scottish Russian Sub Commander, and so on and so on and so on.........
+tranurse A Scottish Roman (from 'Time Bandits').
a Scottish Spanish nobleman in "The Highlander"
and a Scottish English spy in James Bond!!!!
+tranurse even when he was an animated DRAGON he was still Scottish !!
+brandybuck1984 James Bond is meant to be Scottish.
Amazing that Brad Pitt can do a good Irish accent but can't a southern American accent for shit.
Funny thing is he's from Missouri which is southern.
+tranurse I tend to think of Missouri as mid Western state but that's besides the point. I know plenty of people that wouldn't be able to do the accent people associate with their regions if they were paid to, myself included. Beyond that I'm mainly talking about inglorious bastards where his character is supposed to be from Maynardville, Tennessee and his accent was unbearable.
It's a border state and actually was part of the Confederacy. Look up Compromise of 1850
LOL. Missouri is a midwestern state, are you crazy? It's not southern. The only part of it that is even somewhat Southern is the Ozark mountains, which doesn't have a large population at all.
You don't get it. Brad Pitt PURPOSELY did a corny, cliche Southern accent in Inglorious Basterds. That's what Tarantino makes all his characters do, over the top accents. Tarantino loves the grandiose of cinema.
Sorry, but it's one of my pet peeves when people criticize Pitt in Basterds. His accent was no mistake, it just went over a lot of people's heads.
They're right...I had NO idea what Brad Pitt's character in Snatch was saying like 80 percent of the time. I actually thought it was a bad accent until watching this and hearing them say it was spot on.
its a terrible accent i dont know what they are talking about but he was meant to be a irish traveler and that was just terrible.
Sandy Prater Brad Pitt's traveller accent wasn't supposed to be fully understood. It is because travellers in real life can be hard to understand at times. Brad Pitt was told to purposely make the accent difficult to follow.
I dunno, 6 irish people vs one anonymous person on youtube. I am going to need further confirmation.
marsneedstowels You know they didn't even have a part for Brad Pitt's character because Brad Pitt went to Guy Ritchie and asked him could he be in the movie. So, he then came up with the gypsie character which wasn't in the original script. I seen Guy Ritchie say that in a documentary of the making of the film here.
Coming from England myself, I find the Irish traveller quite hard to understand but you know immediately the difference between an Irish person and an Irish traveller - if that makes sense.
Brad Pitt smashed it. Even the Irish on here concede to that. Brilliant..that's when he won me over and I got a lot of Yanks to watch that film based on Brad's performance.
I agree
Perrywinkle blue.
ivanduvok haha I didn't understand more than 2 words but good job!
Yanks. I forget y'all got a whole slurred for Americans that could (and usually does) mean masturbation to us.
Him being pokey was a very important part of the story
that long black-haired man on the right is a pirate
ikr
The were no Irish pirates.
+J-Boogie Brown Anne fucking bonney
Gráinne Mhaol XDDD
I think you misspelt gobshite.
Was Sean Connery in the untouchables meant to be Irish? I can't remember. I don't even think he knew. "So i'm playing a Scotsman living in Chicago am I?"
"No you're Irish"
"Ahh its all the same"
+Robbie Thomson He was doing an Irish accent the same way he did a Lithuanian Accent in Hunt For Red October, i.e. Not at all.
+Derek Hand Sean Connery is exactly like Michael Caine in that regard. They just can't do accents.
+Robbie Thomson The movie made it very clear that he was Irish, they call him an old Mick a bunch of times and the character is based off of FBI agent Marty LaHart that worked with Eliot Ness and was even part of the team that took down John Dillinger. He was Irish American.
tyrgoossens No, not anymore, but back in the 20s many "Irish-Americans" were still 1st or 2nd generation, and grew up in Irish neighborhoods, so an accent would still be rather common.
tyrgoossens The Boston accent is what it is due to all the Irish that lived there. Much like Chicagoians have that accent due to the German/Italian mix that blended together. New Jersey, due to a heavy population of Italians and Jews.
yer man in the leather jacket reminds me of Sirius Black
OMG
YES lol
Brian Purcell tHANK
You can't be Sirius.
I see him more as Charles Manson..
I used to feel pretty bad about this, then I got into BBC programming and discovered ludicrously terrible American accents.
PraiseDivineMercy I really like your account name
+Troy Collazo Thanks.
+PraiseDivineMercy Hey, what did you think of the British actors' American accents in Spooks ?
Harppuunamies Afraid I haven't seen it.
+PraiseDivineMercy I had no idea BBC shows had American characters
I'm hypnotized by the vampire-pale-Russell-Brand dude.
There's lots of guys in Belfast that look almost identical to him lol
You liked him? He looked like a bloody ghost with a latex mask on.
ikr he is cute
Yo seriously!
Lol he could easily be straight from 80s Belfast or Liverpool
"I think it's the mistakes of the past that influence the mistakes of the future"
surprisingly deep right there
I like this channel because it's like the Irish buzzfeed
+_pisces_ Buzzfeed Green, perhaps? (I'm American, and Ireland = Green, I guess)
+_pisces_ But way better than Buzzfeed.
+SmokedFalafels Ain't nothing wrong with a little bit of feminism
+Laoide likes Music no
+Marie NO.
The only thing I've learned from these videos is that I love the Irish.
Thank you!! 🍀 🍀 🍀
My thoughts after the first one of these videos: 'Someone get me a plane ticket, I need to go party with them and never go back.'
You have chosen wisely ;)
i am not Jake Thank you 🇮🇪☘️😁
We love you too Pamela
"Half Scottish, Half Pirate".....hilarious!
"It's like an irish accent from a parallel universe of Ireland"
That's Boston
*Boahstehn
IM SHIPPING UP TO BOSTON
Irish accents are wicked hard for Americans to imitate, but a lot of filmmakers don't seem to care about authenticity. Julia Roberts in "Mary Reilly" is actively painful, and I say that as an American. My grandparents immigrated from Ireland in the 60's, and listening to them skewer bad Irish accents in movies is hilarious.
I think a big part of it is that a lot of times people try way too hard if that makes sense and they just completely over do it.
"He's such a hunk! Like, no one in Ireland looks like that!"
*is literally sitting next to a hunk-ish, biker-looking man*
Lets go Facts, you guys need to review whiskeys from around the globe. "are you havin that" guy should host it.
i would recommend the video he hosted about irish pubs
brilliant idea! perfect choice of host too :-)
+watwud Scooby Doo ARE YOU HAVING THAT!? ARE YOU DOING THIS WITH IT!?
Make sure to include some cabbage for him.
+watwud Scooby Doo He has his own channel for that... It's called "Areya HavingThat" ... No I'm not kidding.
I'm a full on Brit but my Mom was born and raised in the Rep. Of Ireland. Not only that but she was a full blown Gypsey / Traveller. She was homeless many times, lived in caravans up and down the country, got into pub brawls, watched bare knuckle boxing and would have gone on like that if she hadn't met my father who was visiting Ireland and was looking to buy a caravan. What transpired was very similar to what happens in Snatch - he got ripped off. For this reason they show me the movie Snatch all the time, but the funny thing is my Dad has a thick, posh British accent and my Mom doesn't just have an Irish accent but an extremely strong Traveller accent (Like Brad Pitt's). It's hilarious when people see me talking to her in public 'Eyyy yah dag ya whah hahh suwushuwhsu suyauyew' 'Oh mum, you're late for your dentist appointment?' lmao.
Sean Connery : You want me to do an Irish accent? You get Scottish or Phish off
Wins an Academy Award
pitt is doing an irish traveller accent and he does it very well.
True. His bad Irish accent is in Devil's Own. Now that's awful.
I didn't expect brad to win this
yeah it sounds like he's doing an exaggerated Irish accent but a lot of rural Irish folk talk like that...from my experience anyway.
and according to my mom brad does a decent Jamaican accent in Meet Joe Black.
Brad is speaking with an Irish traveller accent (I'm Irish and live in Ireland and couldn't do it)
+Jordan Green His Northern Irish accent in the Devil's Own evens out the decision. Awful. Though it is incredibly difficult to master. The guy from Pride is the only American who's ever managed it.
+itsonlysound Daniel Day Lewis does a very good Belfast accent, Brads wasn't the worst in 'the Devils own' accept for mispronunciation of Lough Neagh. He spent months with a family on the falls road to perfect it, I can't do a west Belfast accent and I'm from Co Armagh (40 miles south)
Honestly, Connery is the guy who can be cast in anything and still sound like himself. No one even tries to change the way he sounds, because he won't.
"We dont all sound like a leprechaun."
von Darkmoor he did that on purpose.
I love when they have sirius black on the show.
Haley Lee yes
dancingdreamstar I'm honestly suprised more people don't comment about him.
So.......dont cast a Scotsman as an irishman is what i gathered from this.......
He was speaking a Chicago accent. If the character lived there for a few generations , it's feasible he lost his Irish accent , or at least the Chicago one became dominant.
I'm Irish and I found Tom Cruise's accent hilarious because it's similar to how we talk in the midlands of Ireland. We really do have the stereotypical leprechaun accent 😂
Tom Cruise accent was shite!
Brad Pitts sounded like my uncle lol.
Brad Pitt's Irish accent in Devil's Own though!
I used to work a job at a call center where I sometimes took calls from Ireland. I learned to love the Irish because they were always super nice to me. English people were pissy are rude half the time but the Irish were 100% nice and easy to deal with. If the calls I took were any representation I would love living in Ireland. I also have zero problems with understanding it when they talk.
I love Irish people 🍀 my grandma is Irish and I can see her sense of humor in all of these guys ❤️
the guy who looks like a pirate/rock star makes me laugh on every video. he has so much charisma and he's just hella funny.
also, is the guy who's a total babe wearing a fall out boy shirt? 🔥🔥🔥
Ha ha. The two Scottish guys had the worst Irish accents. :D
I thought butler was aussie?
That's the beauty of Sean Connery. He doesn't actually try to do other accents, he just speaks with his Scottish accent. He could an "Irish" cop from Chicago, a "Latvian" submarine captain in the Soviet Navy, or an MI6 agent (who was originally supposed to be English), and he's just himself. I respect that.
Sean Connery should never do any other accent than the one he was born with.
+Marie because he's that bad at accents, or because his own accent is that good?
Amelia Q. Little bit of both.
Agreed. His inability to pronounce the letter S really limits him to one accent.
You're not born with an accent XD
LeeLemon008 Sean Connery and Morgan Freeman were. They did monologues in utero.
The fact that you caught Cruise's line; "I've done well!" was interesting, since I've never been able to figure out what he was saying there. I've rewound and listened many times, to no avail. He must've been halfway right, as you've just translated the line for me, so THANKS!
words of wisdom: the mistakes of the past, influence the mistakes of the future
Nicole Castillo ...Except there are no such things as "mistakes"...😏😏😏
Wait, who is the guy who looks like a pirate, because he is awesome.
Also, I don't even think Sean Connery has an accent. He just talks like Sean Connery.
I think that is the accent lol. "What accent are you doing, Scottish?" .... "Nope Connery"
I love how I am continuously seeing commercials for Outback Steakhouse as bumper ads for this channel. Apparently, Google thinks Irish=Australian 😉
that dude with the Goatee looks like Guy Fawkes fr
When he said, "No one in Ireland looks like that." Yet, they're all super beautiful!
eye of the beholder I guess. its a commonly held view in Ireland that we aren't the most attractive bunch of people
+owenzey I can't speak for the fellas, but the Irish ladies...wow.
+owenzey Thats crazy....try asking the rest of the world and you'll see ladies love the Irish!
"Is it bad that we can understand him?" Nah, I'm from Yorkshire (then again I have family everywhere and the cumbrian accent is a reet bastard to understand) and I get almost every word.
It's summat that's allus hard to follow when tha's from across the pond. Missen, I found Pitt's flow hard to follow. Ta ra and have a good day.
That was a pitiful attempt at a Yorkshire accent. Sorry. D:
If you are American with a southern accent I doing an Irish accent is easier. Practically everyone in the south especially in Appalachia is of Irish or Scottish extraction.
I'm a Southerner and you're absolutely correct. I, and most white people I know from here can trace their ancestry to County Antrim. In Appalachia, they use the word 'poke' for bag, or sack. This comes from the Gaelic word 'poca' meaning the exact same thing. Fun fact.
First of all, it's Irish not 'Gaelic'. The Irish language in Irish is Gaelige if you want to say that.
Secondly, poca means pocket not sack.
But I admire your enthusiasm all the same.
imaspastichawk en.wiktionary.org/wiki/poca
The Scots-Irish who came to Appalachia did not speak Irish, they spoke Scottish Gaelic. And according to this link, 'poca' means bag, sack or satchel, not pocket.
As a fluent Irish speaker and someone who attends an all Irish-speaking school (Gaeilscoil) for just over 13 years now, póca means pocket as Gaeilge.
Charlie Grant Then why does the dictionary say it means satchel, bag, and sack, not pocket? Also, we're talking about Scottish Gaelic, not Irish.
Brad Pitt's accent was not Irish, per se, but actually Pikey, which the movie itself states is "not Irish, not English, it's just Pikey"
WHO'S THE GUY WITH THE LONG BLACK HAIR HE'S HOT
Dats roosell BrAHND
I'm a California boy who was lucky enuf to spend 3 months in England back in 90's, rode up to Liverpool one weekend and spent a good deal of the ride chatting with these two Irish guys and an Italian guy. I could barely understand the Irish guys at first so the Italian guy was translating for us. It was very similar to the quickness of the Brad Pitt clip but thicker. Loving these series of vids, you guys are doing a great job very fun stuff.
Sean Connery didn't change his accent to play a Spanish or Russian character, of course he's not going to to play an Irish one, lmao.
2:42 "He actually talks like me sister."
I love it
Tom Cruise... terrible Irish accent.
+Donovan Simmons Agreed. lol
Somewhere in one of the irish mountains, there is a man that Tom sounds like. We just haven't found him yet.
+Donovan Simmons Tom Cruise.... Terrible
+Donovan Simmons Like his acting
Tom Cruise can be many things, but there's one thing he can't do. Speaking in accents.
I don't know how I stumbled across this channel, but I am so happy, as an American (and future teacher), to be learning about someone else's culture.
No boondock saints :/
thank God someone who makes sense!
+Cacpk21 They were born in Ireland. There mother still lives there.
+Cacpk21 are you sure you have even seen Boondock Saints?
+Cacpk21 Umm, I dont think youve seen Boondock Saints if you think those are Boston accents instead of Irish accents LOL.
That's what I was waiting for. I love that movie, but god those accents.
I'd love to see a part 2 for this
I don't know how you didn't think to show them Boondock Saints?
Antnj81 that's in a different video
I was waiting for them to talk about Norm Reedus going in and out of that accent all throughout the movie. Was disappointed for it to not come up. Half the movie he'd speak completely American.
I have never heard of this channel before but have been hooked for the last half hour. Nice work! I also never realized that Sean Connery was supposed to be Irish in Untouchables.
After watching that brief clip with Brad Pitt, I now need to watch the actual film... with subtitles.
do you like dags?
Dags? Oh you mean dogs. Yeah i like dags. XD
Fun fact: Brad Pitt couldn't do any English accent but he wanted to be in Snatch really badly, so the gypsy accent was invented out of thin air. It was actually a joke. People had widely criticized the accents in GR's move Lock, Stock, & Two Smoking Barrels, so they decided to create an accent that nobody could understand, including the other characters. If you try to watch the movie with subtitles, it's blank any time he's talking. So... the one that was supposed to be intentionally bad and ridiculous was the best haha
I love the guy with the FOB shirt
That's a FOB shirt? Goddamn it, David, stop being so perfect!
same
Yaass!
My God, I can listen to Irish people talk all day.
I'm addicted to this channel!
WAS HE WEARING A FALL OUT BOY SHIRT?
It didn't look like it.
I THINK SO
yes I have the same one from the American beauty American psycho tour
Hey Facts Crew! Next time I'm in Ireland, let's grab a pint of Guinness. Love your videos!
When I lived in the UK, my flatmate was from Belfast. By the end of the year, I'd gotten so lost in the accent that when his girlfriend called and asked if she could take money out of the bank, I said yeah. I thought she was just messing with me. She thought I was him and took money out that was his. There was a big 3-way argument in the flat that night.
You guys are great! My grandmother lives in Dingle. Love Ireland!! Such a beautiful country.
The fall out boy shirt made me happy.
Brad Pitt's role in Snatch is EPIC. I freakin' love that character entirely because of that crazy hilarious accent, I absolutely love it. The fact that I can only understand 15% of what's coming out of his mouth only makes it funnier! To this day when I'm walking with my friends and I see someone down the street with a cute puppy, I nudge them and say "d'yalike dags?".
I'm so glad they liked brads performance. Hilarious that they liked it so much.
I probably shouldn't be impressed that they understand it, but I am!
Yup yup hats off to Brad Pitt!?! I honestly believe that he actually nailed the Irish traveler accent!?! Fair play to him!?!
IS THAT GUY WEARING A FALL OUT BOY SHIRT???
I thought I was the only one who noticed that lol
Danie Roberts NICE
THAT'S AWESOME
I wonder what they thought about the accents in Patriot Games.
Gerard Butler should have done better. Scottish of Irish descent. I read an interview and he even said he was thoroughly ashamed of his Irish accent in that film.
Oh, and the funny thing of accents was this for me. I was in a screenwriting class in Hollywood in 1989. There was a man named Seamus Kennedy who was also a student. He was from Cork. Seamus would say something to the class, and they’d look to me for the translation. I couldn’t believe I was translating English to English.
For real? I always thought Brad Pitt was making it up! Haha those are real words? ***mindblown***
“I think his buck teeth are glued together...” lol that was so funny! And Bras Pitt was AMAZING in Snatch! One of my favorite movies totally 🇺🇸💋
I bet leather-jacket-guy was the cutest baby ever
I'd like them to review Billie Piper's Irish accent from her performance as Brona Croft in the first season of Penny Dreadful.
Has Meryl Streep ever done an Irish accent?
+Susan Heslop (Je Suis un Ananas) She done Dancing at Lughnasa but it's set in Donegal so more of a northern Irish accent.
+Live life the way you Love Donegal isn't Northern Ireland ?
+Thomas Doherty I know that... I said accent.
Live life the way you Love okay, I just wouldn't say it's a northern Irish accent
+Susan Heslop (Je Suis un Ananas) ce n'est pas possible, l'ananas ne tapez pas
“Would I lie to you?”
“Yeah I think you would you’re just a weirdo in the middle of the woods like” howling 😂😂
What time does Sean connery get to Wimbledon?
ooh about tennish? ;)
I'll let myself out!
Nice point made at the end about Connery and DARBY O'GILL AND THE LITTLE PEOPLE.
i would really like to see Irish people watch " rick and morty " for the first time.
I lived in county Cork for about a year and ran into a lot of gypsies while I was there. As soon as I got home my brother showed me Snatch. I was blown away at how good he did the Irish gypsy accent. I have seen American and British websites make fun of him for it but that is because they have never heard Irish Gypsies. He did it dead on.
Ah Shannon will you ever just say you like the feckers bleedin' hat
I love Darby Gill, the little people. I’m gonna dig out my VCR just in case it comes on TV. One more time.
Julia Roberts accent in Michael Collins was dreadful too
As an American, the reason why a "normal" Irish accent is so hard is because it's soooooo subtle in its pronounced differences. If you over pronounce at all you sound like a leprechaun, or Scottish or Cockney, or an idiot, or magically, all at once. And if you underpronounce, you just sound like an American with occasional speech impediments.
Brad Pitt's attempt was surprisingly pleasant!
Sean Connery..... conshishtenly unpleashant!
I remember when Snatch came out and seeing these people on different talk shows getting so bewildered by the "gibberish" accent. That was all Pitt got to talk about in interviews.
It took many years, but he was finally vindicated.
Hahaha Tom cruise is awful
+modestxmichelle His accent, definitely! His overall acting skills are pretty amazing, though. :P
+jr4chargers He is a mediocre actor. He can only play himself.
+modestxmichelle I agree, sad thing is Far & Away was a beautifully shot movie.. but his accent was pretty awful.
+Leimiful omg! fucking THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!
Leimiful
I greatly disagree. He's one of the best actors out there. I guess it's just personal preference. :P
Snatch is still one of my favorite movies. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it.
Brad Pitt's "Irish" accent I though was just a joke for the movie. did know it was good job on his part.
+charlie perry It's pretty accurate.
+charlie perry for a gypsy traveller accent it is actually pretty good
Best Irish accent I've heard on TV or movies was done by Catherine Tate when did the "Ulster Mum" skit on her show. She nailed a Belfast accent.
Why was Richard Ramirez (The Nightstalker) in this video faking an Irish accent? That jackets not fooling anyone.
HA!!!
The guy with the Jacket is the best Irish lad I've seen on UA-cam...he is the reason I subscribe
what no boondock saints?!?!
they have a different video for that movie
Please, please never stop making videos!
"I think it's the mistakes of the past that influence the mistakes of the future"
And suddenly shit got real (o.o)
I love these Irish people react videos! love the Irish culture!
at the very top of the vid "we don't all sound like leprechauns on acid" ....and he says it sounding VERY MUCH like a "leprechaun on acid" LOL ...i'm sorry but the American actors sounded to me just like the actual Irish people who were doing the critique. now the Scottys? yeah they sounded Scottish.
To be fair, Sean Connery was playing an Irish-American rather than an Irishman. I really enjoyed Brad Pitt's performance in Snatch, so I'm happy to find that it was fairly authentic.
