Canadian Bacon is a comedy, but even though Hacker is kind of the villain, nothing would have happened if the President hadn’t tried to cause trouble with Candada.
They were revealed in Fallout 2: that Vault 13 was given faulty chips etc., other had other problems, etc. In Fallout 3 (and Fallout NV) you actually explore several of the Vaults that had those issues.
Walker - about William Walker, played by all-American Ed Harris. Walker invaded Mexico essentially a a privateer for American interests. As played by Harris was a screaming nut-job of the first order.
Director Alex Cox did this straight after Repo Man and Sid and Nancy. He’s a Pom but the American writer is Rudy Wurlitzer [could only be more American if it was Rudy Kardashian-Wurlitzer III].
IIRC it was touched on in 2. But the concept way predates 3, and was mainly suggested in non-game canon, like the Fallout Bible.
I think I could, umm… suggest umm… the Turner Diaries? No, I have not read them. Given the author’s POV, the gov’t is bad, and objectively they seem so, but not compared to the “hero.” Pretty much any dystopian work where the government becomes despotic counts.
Also, Tenacious D - The Government Totally Sucks
The book - Graham Greene was English. The film’s director is Australian.
The most apt of them is Gone With The Wind. The South, having seceded from the union, was technically foreign territory, and you have the United States Union side burning Atlanta and raiding plantations.
Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 911, if documentaries count.
Roots, with America very actively participating in the African slave trade.
Indirectly, the Resident Evil movies. An American saboteur releases a virus that by movie number 3 has spread worldwide.
I suppose any American-made movie with an anti-Vietnam War message would count.
“Letters from Iwo Jima” is an American WWII movie told from the Japanese perspective. I don’t recall it particularly vilifying the US, though as it’s told from the Japanese viewpoint the US is obviously the villain.
Phillip Roth’s “The Plot Against America” is an alternate history of the US sliding into Fascism.
One Man’s Hero, starring Tom Berenger.
Another western, with the U.S. Army as the bad guys, and the Native Americans as good guys: Soldier Blue, starring Candice Bergen and Peter Strauss.
