Film in Germany called Startup


I'm a bit confused.
This film is in germany known as Startup. But it's not Startup.com (http://imdb.com/title/tt0256408/).

I thought for a long time that Antitrust and Startup are the same, but maybe thy are not really. Strange...

it is the same movie. in germany they often re-name movies with some other english titles. don't ask me why, i don't know. it's just ridicioulus ;]

I guess it is because most Germans couldn't do anything with "Antitrust". Instead, "Startup" is used because it's a word most Germans should have heard in the evening news by now. It does, though, change the sense of the title. "Antitrust" refers to NERV, while "Startup" means the garage guys' firm.
