    Why do so many people dont understand this movie?
    First, this is comedy. Not National Geographic or History Channel or similar.

    Historical correctness? You don't understand how sarcasm and parody works.

    This film has one main statement, which you can find in every sketch/joke/scene. You don't know what i mean. Maybe asking someone how does before writing really low things.

    And this statement finishing in the title song played at the end.

    In every scene, you can also find other statements about "Humankind" and how great we are.

    I can only understand bad critics by (hu)mens, which love all these things, which were mentioned as "The Bad of Humankind" in this film.

    This is one of those pearls of movies, which has the outrageous requesting of knowledge by the viewer. Yes, maybe you dont understand the joke, because you dont know the history or just dont understand the critic in it.

    Or the translation led lost a lot of it. In German (OT) every sentence has its message. Ok, maybe not the ones of Al and Thierry :) Their are just there to give your brain a break and let you just laugh about pointlessness. (Maybe thats the message in this dialog.)

    Definitive not for those, who looking for simple entertainment.

    But great for those, who ask for a room to leave your frustation about ignorance.
