> Did you not see American movies? I'm also from a different country, but this part of the American culture is very much front and center in its exports, IMO.
There exist quite a lot of US-American movies. I would claim that those who are less deeply centered around US-specific cultural traits are typically much more revered in other countries.
There are, of course, exceptions from this rule (for example "The Simpsons", which excessively satirizes the USA's popular culture, but is nevertheless loved in many other countries), but I do think that the general rule of thumb does hold.
In this sense: even if you watch US-American movies, it is rather easy to mostly ignore those who strongly show US-specific cultural traits and habits, in particular if these are considered to be annoying in the other country.
