This is the legendary "Building America". After watching it, I found out, what kind of National Day gift blockbuster is this? It is basically a historical nihilistic work of handing knives to hostile forces. The choreographers portrayed Washington as a muscular man with a double saw chopping down a cherry tree. Lincoln moved forward through a hundred years and became Washington's good friend. The villain Arnold was actually a werewolf, and Edison was a Chinese female immigrant who invented the Iron Man equipment.
Washington is one day the inventor of peanut butter, another day a dinosaur farmer, and nothing compared to a librarian. He also proclaimed himself the "future king of the United States", and did not hide his wolf ambitions to be king and hegemony at all.
The founding fathers swears a lot, kills the enemy like chopping melons and vegetables, splashes all kinds of racist and sexist terms, and blew up the Titanic in order to make a silver bullet. The first president personally staged an intense sex scene, the first lady easily gave him a green hat, and the son born was actually the black actor Denzel Washington.
The insurgents once raided a bar called Vietnam, and it was a disaster for both parties. Later, the team members laughed at the leaders behind their backs: "As you can imagine, you are used to winning all your life. Even if you really lose once, you will think 'I must have won that time'. The so-called 'privilege' is like this. Yes." This is obviously a slap in the face of the Ah Q spirit of some Americans on the Vietnam War issue.
In the decisive battle, countless raptors and beasts, Qimen Dunjia, and demons and monsters appeared. It looked like a dignified and upright flag, and it was more like a nonsensical final battle of the reunion. The final confrontation evolved into a big drink fight between tea and beer. The first lady instantly turned into the Statue of Liberty, and her husband's last desire on the battlefield was not final boss battle, but final awesome sex.
At the founding ceremony, before Washington delivered a few passionate speeches on freedom, equality and fraternity, the audience raised their bars and booed: What about your slaves? What about fellow women? What about the Indians? What about gun rights? What about same-sex marriage? The audience suddenly became a mess. Such ungrateful masses of the people are really unheard of.
What's worse is that they not only dare to disgust the leaders, but also dare to mock the system. Every time they mention Democracy, they don't forget to add Fxxking in front. Washington told Arnold that from now on your name became synonymous with "betrayal," which we voted on. It sounds logical, but when I think about it, I feel that the words are arrogant—no matter how good democracy is, it cannot be used to deprive individuals of their dignity. So to put it bluntly, democracy is the tyranny of the majority, and improper use may also become tyranny.
The plot of the movie is actually quite vulgar, but there are countless historical, political, and cultural stalks, and those who have a little understanding of the United States will find their hearts darkened. What impresses me the most is that it is really not easy for foreign leaders to be ridiculed and ridiculed unscrupulously by the people. Compared with some sacred and inviolable religious leaders, the creators can draw a few cartoons and they can lead to death.
This is how Americans like to make fun of their own people, and they are not afraid of being misunderstood as foreign gangsters. So what is their purpose in doing this? Just for some kind of bad taste? The director said this in an interview with the media:
To some degree we wanted to make sure that we're at least attempting to hold everybody accountable and to hold ourselves accountable for all the different problems that we have right now.
That said, American society has all kinds of problems for which everyone is responsible, including ourselves.
It sounds quite lacking in road confidence and cultural confidence. If there is a problem, it must be the problem of a small number of corrupt people who are not firm in their ideals and beliefs. How can all the hardworking and brave American people take the blame? So, sooner or later the American emperor will take a pill, and sooner or later, we will just wait and see.
