Does anyone else have a problem with Heather Graham's performance in this movie? I loved most of the cast, but she kind of ruined the movie for me-- well, except for the smooch scene, 'cause that was hot . Lucky gal! I don't know, I think her accent was off and her acting wasn't believable enough. Don't mean to be harsh though! It COULD be because she was acting opposite Johnny... but then so have a lot of actors and I haven't thought the same. Any opinions?

I have to admitt the first time I saw the movie I wasnt really pleased with her performance, but little by little every time I watched it I started liking it more and more... and now I think its just fine.... I think she did well..

Hmmm... maybe I should do the same, then? ;D I don't mean to not give her credit or to bash her acting performance... I just wasn't that impressed. But I shall give it another go and see if my opinion changes!

I thought she did a lovely job. It had to be hard to learn the accent and use it in the movie, and i thought she did a good job on that. I thought she was wonderful.

I really didn't like Heather in this film at all. I just recently saw it when I received a copy for Christmas and she wasn't all that stunning in it. Johnny completely stole the film and was gorgeous and nailed his accent right on the button. He didn't quaver for a moment, but Heather... she just didn't do anything for me. But she does look lovely with red hair and her dress was gorgeous, but that's about it.

I think she nailed the accent just fine, considering the fact that she hadnt done an accent like that before hand. thats my opinion anyway.

Yeah, you've got to hand it to her. Cockney accents are really hard to do! That's why Michael Caine rocks so much. new respect for Heather Graham.

it is indeed a very very hard accent to nail I must agree

We agree on a smeep-load of stuff, Iggy. Oy. I've got an idea. How many stars out of 5 would you give From Hell? I'd say *** and a 1/2, with a few bonuses for Johnny's presence.
