Won't a movie, where you are fighting for your country, have patriotism in it?
The movie is called Independence Day ffs.....a slight allusion to July 4th.
Btw, I agree with you on the U-571 thingie.
I could have sworn there was a disclaimer put in the beginning of the movie about the British because of pressure from history buffs.
Even though some liberties will be taken, historically based movies should not change the important basics of historical events.
Making the heroes out to be American is fucking shameful.
However if there was a movie about Brits makin' da bomb...well if the movie looked like it was made well, I'd probably watch it.
I just think that movies that put forth as not being "what if's" but as real historical events are irresponsible.
