One thing that really nagged at me was the scene in "Black Widow" where the family sits down to eat and are all speaking in broken English with Russian accents. I was reminded of this when I saw "Thunderbolts"* and Yelena and Red Guardian were doing it again.
First, they are all native Russians so it doesn't really make sense that they're talking to each other in English. They should be speaking Russian, their native language. I can forgive that because they might not have wanted to use subtitles.
More importantly, it was established in the opening scene that they can speak perfect English with American accents. They spoke it so well that they fooled other Americans into thinking they were American. So why do they insist on speaking broken English with thick Russian accents? Even in private?
