Q: Foreign movies where actors' speaking Chinese is not atrocious?
I saw the Chinese cut of Looper the other day and laughed at how bad Bruce Willis' Chinese was (the scene was added for Chinese audiences for gods sake!). And don't even get me started on Firefly, may it rest in peace.
Anyone ever seen a foreign movie where the actor's Chinese actually sounds okay?

The only one I can think of off hand is the "Firefly" series, where the actors speak an occasional phrase or cuss word in Chinese. They seem to have had some pronunciation coaching, and it sounds appropriate to me!
I can't think of any.On the atrocious side though I remember an episode of The Big Bang Theory where Sheldon is learning Chinese so that he can complain to the boss at their favourite Chinese restaurant about the tangerine chicken.
GuilinRaf:
That was a great episode!
He said all the words "right," but with the wrong tone, completely changing what he wanted to say.!
