America: The Motion Picture (2021)
In this animated revisionist history, a chainsaw-wielding George Washington assembles a team of rabble rousers, including beer-loving bro Sam Adams, famed scientist Thomas Edison, acclaimed horseman Paul Revere, and a very pissed off Geronimo, to defeat Benedict Arnold and King James in the American Revolution. Who will win? No one knows, but you can be sure of one thing: these are not your father's Founding ... uh, Fathers.

    Quite disappointing

    The thing that surprised me the most about this movie was how boring it is aside from the first and last 20 minutes. The humour has its moments, but the majority doesn't really work, at least for me. It also lacked action aside from the very end, a lot was off screen or just didn't exist. Overall was rather disappointed as had been looking forward to it for a while.

    It´s like "Borat" or "Starship Troopers"

    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.

    Simply not funny

    I like satirical takes on anything, yet this script seems to be written by ten year old boys from the bottom of their class. Okay, satire doesn't have to make sense, bur it does need to hang together in its own universe. This movie doesn't hang together in any universe. All would be forgivable if it were funny. It is not. I gave up about twenty minutes in. I'm thinking of sending Netflix my grandchild's crayon drawings to see if we can get a movie deal.

    One joke, the rest boring yawners, and lots of upshilling of reviews/ratings don't save this

    Firstly there are lot of eight to ten star reviews using same phrasing and from single use accounts.

    Secondly this may have worked as a two minute short. The rest isn't just dumb humor -- it is no humor.

    I suggest the writers not quit their day jobs.

    Not nearly as bad as most say

    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.
