America: The Motion Picture

This isn't supposed to be a Monty Python sketch or a nuanced satire. This is supposed to poke fun at the ultra patriotic Bro dude history that people homology together into our past. This is the version of America where Lincoln rides a grizzly bear into battle on a t shirt. It's chock full of references and humor and while not perfect I found it ridiculously entertaining and I'm a historian. Just don't take it so seriously.

I suspect the many jabs at trash US dude-bro culture offended the less intelligent and well read viewers. Make no mistake, this movie is completely nutty but also shows how far America has fallen.

Made me laugh out loud several times. But what do know, I'm just a pinko European who travelled through 30 states.

I'm not sure what I just watched, but I was entertained.

I enjoyed it, you can tell the voice actors had a good time.

But I would guess it will take some time before the people that will be offended, to realize they actually are. And I can support that.

Like, yeah some jokes fall flat. But for the most part this is a fun over the top dramatization of Americans. The characters are enjoyable, the plot is easy to follow, its really good fun. Its not high brow, nor is it ground breaking. Its an hour and a half of just making fun of America, told through a intriguing "Tell Tale" games animation style. I dont really see a lot of the faults others do, I see it for what it is. A beautifully dumb movie thats good for some giggles and slams against America. Id recommend this to friends.

The Kazakhstani didn´t understand that Sascha made fun of the Americans prejudice about foreigners and fascists didn´t understand that "Troopers" made fun of fascists.

It´s OK.

The wokeism is so obvious that the movie makes fun of it.

The tropes of modern movies are there. You get sucked in to cheer for America, even though you´re constantly reminded about how hollow it is.

The end... well, that IS America today.

Nietzsche said that every condition has its opposite built in, which eventually turns it into its opposite.

It is blooming today, but it was built in at the creation.

It happens to be about America, but the same goes for all national myths. They´re myths. This one is so exaggerated that it should be obvious.

A healthy dose of self-distance.
