hi, I wasn't very clear. I thought that Adriel meant that this film was made with American ingredients, styles and values so that it's easy for the audience to identify with. I couldn't detect that. In fact, I think that most people who don't like this film is because of its strange taste.With respect to truth, realism vs fairy tales. Each has their own place in literature. Art is an expression of imagination, not necessarily a reproduction of reality. Nobody complains about the imagination of Kubrick. People complain about Star Wars mostly because of its lack of depth not because the impossibile existence and control of "the force".
Smart foreigners don't make "American films"; they make films for Americans. The difference is in degree not substance admitedly. But it's a big difference. The weakness lies in the customers "enjoyment of foreign pieces", not necessarily the true quality of the pieces themselves. Also, when I say "self-critical", I mean "self" in a national sense as I think it's fashionable for people to complain what they have, to degrade the quality of American products.
