Blood Diamond, one of DiCaprio's best?

That's where you are mistaken as his character was from Rhodesia( now Zimbabwe). I have worked with some rugby players from both Zimbabwe and SA and I thought he had the accent down pretty well...

Excellent movie!

Sorry SLT, but I can't agree with you on everything

Hey no problem. To me, they are the same accent (SA and Zimbabwe). I also noticed he called the country by it's old colonial name Rhodesia.

I just saw it this past weekend. Personally, I thought the movie had too many slow spots in it. Furthermore, I found Leo's fake SA accent not believeable. IMHO, not his best performance.

I too haven't been fond of Leo since (drum roll) the titanic. I have to say, this movie really turned his image around for me. I thought it was a fantastic movie, and the ending was gold. I thought he did a simply fantastic job.

I recently watched this and I thought it was a fantastic movie, i recommend it to all who read this. I think its one of Leo's best roles. With this and The Departed not to mention a few others i think he is becoming one of my favorite actors. Weird i used to hate him as an actor, heh. Djimon Hounsou also acted his role phenomanally i thought. How about the shovel scene with him. Ferocious, heh. Oh well, I'd like to hear some opinions on this movie.

Love love LOVE this movie as well. Saw it in the theater and then watched it a few nights ago again with my roomate who hadn't seen it yet, made me remember again how good it is. Yes I agree that Dijmon guy was terrific as well. With The Departed, and now Blood Diamond, Leo's definitely shown how incredibly talented he is. I look forward to seeing him again soon!

Personally, I have a hard time watching any movie with Leo in it because of his politics...
