I was wondering if even native English speakers do not understand 100% of what actors or actresses say in movies without scripts and in addition, even native English speakers misunderstand each other's English because of accent, dialect and generation gap,etc. Is this true? Thanks a lot.

Yes, it is true; however, we are much better at accurately getting the gist of what is said than are learners.
