America: The Motion Picture

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.

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 didn't hate it but... The writing definitely has its moments and it's very over the top. Especially since it never knows (or even pretend to know) what century it's taking place in. Sometimes this fact makes watching it a bit confusing. If you literally take your logic brain and turn it off completely, it makes it more tolerable. So yeah. Don't overthink it, it's not that kind of movie.

Animation and acting are brilliant. Story is kinda meh (far too many Star Wars references), even with the over the top moments. Probably should be watched while drunk. MURICA! 🇺🇸

This is satire. Its over the top and ridiculous. For every infantile joke that doesn't hit. There are two or three clever jokes that do hit. If you want to have a good laugh and shut your brain off then you will have an absolutely fun time. With this red white and blue comedy, it will find its fans. Its not for everyone. But for those who like this kind of humor, you can do a lot lot worse.

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.
