About this product

Product Information

Writer/director Bobcat Goldthwait skewers everything that's wrong with contemporary American culture in this firebomb satire about a disillusioned middle-aged man who embarks on a violent crime spree with a cynical teenage girl. Fed up with his selfish neighbors, fired from his soul-sucking job, and depressed at the infrequency of visits with his bratty young daughter, 45-year-old divorcΘe Frank (Joel Murray) prepares to end it all after being diagnosed with a fatal brain tumor. Just as Frank is about to pull the trigger, however, he has a sudden flash of inspiration: before he takes his own life, he'll do the world a big favor and permanently silence the loudmouthed teenage star of a popular reality-television show. Meanwhile, high-school misfit Roxy (Tara Lynne Barr) witnesses the killing firsthand, and then convinces Frank to continue his bloody mission of cultural cleansing with her as his sidekick. In no time, Frank and Roxy are leaving a trail of bodies in their wake, and making headlines across the country. But all good things must come to an end, and when their partnership hits an unexpected hitch, Frank draws up plans to go out with a final bang.

ReviewsThe A.V. Club - The key point about GOD BLESS AMERICA is that it's extreme but not exaggerated, a dark comedy that indulges - and questions - a violent, misanthropic fantasy about laying waste to the cultural landscape while staying grounded in a recognizable reality., NPR - GOD BLESS AMERICA ends with a couple of tale-twisting bullet orgies designed to take your preconceptions, as well as your nerve-endings, by surprise., Chicago Reader - As with the earlier movie, this one turns in on its own morality like a Mobius strip, endorsing kindness by practicing slaughter, and pulls us along for the ride. Detractors will call its reasoning ridiculous, and they'll be right - though I doubt that will bother Goldthwait, who makes a living being ridiculous.

Twisted honest comedy
A man diagnosed with terminal cancer, fired from his job, struggling to maintain a relationship with his young daughter hindered by his ex wife, kept from sleeping and constantly parked in by his ignorant selfish neighbour and sick of how shallow and worthless the modern world has become. Joined by a young girl on a road trip to set right a few things they think are wrong with America a funny twisted film worth a watch.
