An anti-American filmmaker who's out to abolish the July Fourth holiday is visited by three ghosts who try to change his perception of the country.

KEYWORDS: humor; movies; satire
A very happy 4th of July to all. With all the recent "cancel culture" going around this movie is very timely. I suppose almost everyone has seen it but thought I'd post just in case. It is available, for now at least, on Amazon or for free on youtube if you look around a bit.

Their heart was in the right place, but it wasn’t a good movie. :-(

I loved this movie. It is a spoof movie with a great conservative slant.

I love the part where the ACLU zombies see the guy. One says he’s a big Hollywood Star and the other corrects that he just makes documentaries.

Wasn’t that the one where they assemble a group of Jihadis to carry out a suicide attack, and when they can’t get the vest to work (or something like that) the leader calls out for one of his explosives guys “Mohammed” and a bunch of jihadis stick their heads up and answer “What?”

Geez I hope it’s the right one.

I do try to patronize movies done by the good guys when I can. I plan to purchase the “Uncle Tom” documentary.

I saw this movie in the theater when it came out. It was hilarious. It had a great way of using logic to show the inane ridiculousness of left wing arguments that dominated the time of its release. Take, for example, the scene where they talk about suicide bombers, and the fact that they are not Catholics, and what that might look like if they were. David Zucker (of Airplane, Naked Gun, and the last 2 “Scary Movie” fame) was involved in the creation of this movie, and it starred Leslie Nielsen on top of it.

Yep.

Then he adds their family name and hardly anyone sits down.

The movie was inconsistent, but it did have a few parts that made me laugh!

Two butch looking lesbians tell “Michael Malone” they can help him out.

Malone: Thank you boys!

His helper: They’re _women_!

I found more than a few scenes from that movie that have stuck with me over the years, but there was something missing in tying it all together.
