    Scarlet Johansson as the Black Widow - who is supposed to be a Russian spy.

    Not a particularly good example to pick. She wouldn’t be a very effective Red Room spy if she had a native Russian accent she couldn’t disguise at all.

    Should have picked something more like Tom Cruise… In anything.

      I’m not saying she should have a Russian accent while speaking English - she is a spy, that would be stupid - but that Scarlet Johansson is pretty rubbish at speaking Russian, which her character should be perfectly fluent in as that’s her native language.
