That movie is a full broadside of biting sarcasm against soap operas and the gun-ho attitude of certain people in the West that it is not really surprising that it flopped in the movies in North America. They felt targetted by it, and right so they did. But it is a good movie, I liked it - if for no other reason than its vitriolic humour.

Many people in Europe also totally misunderstood it, and thought it to be a hailing of fascism and militarism. They completely missed that it is exactly the opposite, wrapped and hidden in sheer sarcasm and exaggeration .
