Russell Crowe in Robin Hood - made the film totally unwatchable.
He's a bit sensitive about it though.

She's pretty cute in that film, so I'd let her off that.

Ray Winstone in The Departed was pretty bad. Didn't really spoil the film though.

I've still not worked out what accent it's supposed to be.

Charlie Hunnam's accent in Green Street is pretty terrible.

Not film, but those Aviva ads with Paul Whitehouse? I reckon they've alienated most of the Scottish market.
Cringeworthy on roughly the same level as when Frank Skinner used to finish his chatshow with a ropey karaoke-esque rendition of some ancient chart hit.
EDIT: Film-wise, Mike Myers tries hard but never quite nails it. See: Shrek and Fat Bastard.

not a film, but a bad accent 'done properly'

All of the actors in 'Boy in the Striped Pyjamas'.
Now I know it is slightly daft to have people speaking in English with German accents in war films (as is the norm), but conversely having them all acting with their 'normal' posh English accents sounded really weird. I had to keep telling myself 'they are playing Ze Germans, they are playing Ze Germans'...

Jason Statham doing an American accent...
can't take him seriously after watching Lock Stock / Snatch..
