Will Smith doesn't look like that in 'Bad boys'.
He's gradually getting old. |

Will Smith is a great Actor but as a Nigerian i'm waiting to be embarrassed at his portrayal of a Nigerian because Hollywood just never seem to portray Africa properly. Not that it matters since Nigeria is not their target audience. 6 Likes |

youngice:No, you don't know what we're talking about 'here'! He's an artiste actually, but is he as versatile as you portray him to be? Mind you, we're talking about movies here, his acting prowess should be the most talked about. |

So there are no real life Nigerians who are into acting by profession in America again right? This country called USA never seems to miss an opportunity to ridicule Nigeria/Nigerians. 1 Like |

It's like Hollywood always got just 1 generic accent for every country in Africa. Sounds like the product of a Ghanaian and South African accent. 2 Likes |

It seems americans are beginning to portray igbos as specialists and technicians in their movies just the same way they do for the asian folks. Good anyway. Kudos to the igbo diaspora. 3 Likes |

Terrible accent. Don Cheadle can do flawless Cockney but Will Smith cant even be bothered to learn the accent? Why didnt they just give it to Chiwetal who is BOTH A-List and Igbo? 3 Likes |
