There's a hell of a lot of overlap with European countries. I have 64 movies with France listed, but only 17 of them are exclusively French.

Yeah, I think Criticker needs sorting by language, too.

4510 out of all 6867 avgcrtckr films (66%) are American; however,
only 237 out of 651 top tier films (36%) are.

2489/2722. 91%? I am about as good at math as I am being culturally diverse. :oops:

89%. I see almost every movie that opens at my local theater that isn't for little kids or a generic romcom, so it's probably going to stay around that proportion, too.

1666 USA films out of 2209. A tad above 75%.

A bit surprising, but I do feel like I watch all those kiddie movies and romcoms Ytadel probably avoids. And classic Hollywood is nothing to be ashamed of.

53% - Would probably be even less if you took away all the family/kids movies I saw as a child.

1674 of 2703, or a little less than 62% according to Criticker
but yeah, it puts a "USA" listing on some movies that are an American co-production even if they were actually made elsewhere.

Roughly:
12% are British
11.5% are French
6.5% are Italian
4.5% are Japanese, 4.5% are Eastern European
3.4% are German, 2.2% are Scandinavian, 1.8% are Israeli and 1.4% are Spanish

If you're happy with the films and like the films you watch, even if the majority of them are just from one country (although one of the best producers of them), then what's the problem?


Amen, brother!

90 American out of 103 total = 87%

25 foreign out of 103 total = 24%

803 of 1482 (54.2%) of my current ranked films are from the USA.

Lower than I expected!
