Sir Sean Connery's laughably bad Irish accent in The Untouchables has been voted the worst attempt at an accent in film history by Empire magazine. Others on the list include Dick Van Dyke for his Cockney-by-way-of-Melbourne accent in Mary Poppins and the Keanu's butchering of an English accent in Bram Stoker's Dracula.

Most shocking to me is that Connery's Untouchables co-star, Kevin Costner, didn't even make the list for his execrable, half-hearted stab at imitating an English lord in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. That's the one that would have topped my list.
