At the risk of further derision or disapprobation I will clarify that I didn't object to the movie, there are hundreds of films with American actors doing bad British accents, I'm looking at you Dick van Dyck, I just didn't like the 3 or 4 months of having people doing a terrible version of the lines to me in a bad impression of Powers or myself, it just got mildly annoying after a while.
I would be the first person to admit that in my case the lousy impressions were meant without malice, that I never had to worry about the impression being ended with a punch in the face and being told to eff off back to where I came from so I cannot compare my experience to an east indian kid hearing some Proud Boy doing an Apu impression to his face.
