Cultural Imperialism through popular culture

Rating: Null/10 (7 May 2000)

Yet another example of American Cultural Imperialism through popular culture. It is all fair and good to be aware this film is not going to be historically accurate, but average cinema goers will leave thinking goody, America saves the day again without realising the fact that history is being rewritten to credit America. It may well be only a movie, but think of the implications, it could mean that in the future all historical accomplishments will have movies made about them- only Americans were the heros rather then people from whatever nation that really should be credited. I guess if you are American, this wouldn't be so bad since it's not like you have much of a history anyway- why don't create history by re-writing it. If you are not American, we have much to worry about.
