We just saw this today, and I really wondered how this would read to someone who actually is German, because the movie's general push to make the Germans into The Baddies really didn't sit well with me -- though I enjoyed the subversion later on -- so I appreciated reading your take on it! It was definitely a fun comic book movie, and I really did enjoy it despite getting jarred by the historical implausibility; it felt more of a piece with the DC TV shows (with their generally good-hearted heroes and optimistic view of human nature) than with the recent DC movies.
