Just saying.
It's too pro-American. I don't see why these "American hero" movies where foreigners are always the bad guys become entertainment. Even though I'm American born and raised, I'm sick of it. Tell me a couple of American movies where American people are actually bad guys, because in truth, we sometimes are.
That's why we have so many racist bastards in the US. I can't stand one more person say "I hate Muslims, let's kick Afghanistan's Muslim ass."
Some American movies where Americans are the bad guys:
1. Casualties of War. Americans kidnap, rape and murder a Vietnamese woman.
2. The French Connection II (character played by Ed Lauder).
3. Gangster (or whatever it was called with Denzel and Russell Crowe). US Military shipped the drugs to the USA.
4. Marathon Man. Americans help a Nazi War Criminal.
5. Apocalypse Now. Col. Walt Kurtz was an American as was the guy the US Army sent to terminate his command "with extreme prejudice."
6. The Package. Americans involved in plot to kill US President.
7. Seven Days In May. US Military plans to overthrow the civilian government of the US.
8. Platoon. Tom Berenger and his pals were nasty boys. Berringer murders a fellow solider. Charlie Sheen murders Berringer.
9. Dr. Strangelove. American AF General launches an unauthorized thermonuclear attack on the USSR.
10. Saving Private Ryan. Americans murder some Germans who had surrendered.
11: JFK: American military industrial complex involved in the assassination of President Kennedy.
12. The Green Zone. Kooky Washington political types think they can bring democracy to Iraq with magic dust and ending up getting a ton of people killed and breaking a country apart.
13. The Ugly American. Enough said.
14. The Thin Red Line. Some Americans want to kill the enemy regardless of consequences.
15. The Pacific. Made for HBO Movie. Some American Marines commit war crimes.
16. Flight of the Intruder. Americans bomb Hanoi without authorization and blow a good chunk of it to Hell.
17. From Here to Eternity. Some Americans are just downright nasty.
18. Dances with Wolves. US Military has total disrespect for American Indians.
19. The Wild Bunch. Americans try to rob stuff and are pretty violent while doing it.
20. Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Americans rob banks in Bolivia.
These were just quickies off the top of my head. I could think of more.
it's more pro-israeli than pro-american
sharesmartypantz96 there's no such thing as too pro-American. Yes, I could tell you a couple of movies where Americans are bad guys, Casualties of War for one (US soldiers raping and murdering a young village girl), Avatar with American space marines trying to exploit and steal from an indigenous alien world. District 9 is another.
