Or do you need subtitles to understand what they're saying? I think subtitles can be a distraction from the real scene. Although it's still better than Hindi dubbing of Hollywood movies.

Depends on accent actually... I can understand American accent very easily but british is quite hard to understand for me without subtitles.

For eg

F. R. I. E. N. D. S - easy

Sharlock - not so much.

I prefer subtitles, while I can wwatch without them, but generally prefer them. Even when watching Hindi movies, I like having English subtitles.

Depends if the accent is too thick.

I am hard of hearing and have low attention spans. If everything could be subtitled, it would be a perfect world.
