America: The Motion Picture

The ending of America: The Motion Picture combines wild comedy, exaggerated action, and parody of American history to create a humorous take on how the founding of the nation might have unfolded in a bizarre, over-the-top universe. After battling through absurd challenges, George Washington and his ragtag team discover that Benedict Arnold, now transformed into a werewolf, is nearly invincible and can only be killed with a silver bullet. They steal silver utensils from the Titanic and, aided by Thomas Edison’s discovery of a secret war machine designed by King James, they aim to stop Benedict and save Martha Washington.

The climax takes place at Attrition Field, where Washington’s forces face off against a massive British army, equipped with war machines and modern(?!) technology. In a spectacular, action-packed fight reminiscent of Marvel’s “Endgame,” they manage to defeat the enemy and destroy Benedict with a silver bullet, which is thrown and shot through a series of comical, exaggerated steps involving Lady Martha Edison and John Henry. With Benedict gone, Washington then declares American independence officially, drafting the Declaration of Independence, which humorously includes a warning about how chaotic and unpredictable the future is. Just as the nation celebrates, the citizens immediately start demanding their own individual rights, leading to an amusing chaos that ends with Washington acknowledging that America’s freedom might just be a mess. The ending pokes fun at history, superhero tropes, and the chaos inherent in the American spirit, wrapping up a wildly comedic and satirical reimagining of the birth of the United States.
