In order for a movie to be "highly american", it has to be:
1. very popular in the US
2. but not popular in other countries.

A highly american movie - Star Wars

A highly un-american movie - 2001 a space odyssey

Star Wars not popular in the rest of the world? Are you kidding me? Maybe not in Pakistan or Benin.

Well, if he's referring to the original films, they did make less overseas than domestic, but all the prequels made more overseas than domestic so I guess there's no accounting for taste.

Unfortunately yes. He highlights our collective shortcomings and magnifies them to a ridiculous mind numbing scale.

First thought that came to mind for me is Dances With Wolves.
