Despite a fairly small viewership, Bobcat Godtwait's pitch-black comedy "God Bless America" has proved to be somewhat controversial since it's release, which was no doubt what Goldtwait intended. Rumors abound about it's 'glorification of violence,' 'tasteless content,' and so-called 'Liberal agenda.' So here I am to weigh in my two cents.

First of all, the allegation that the fi... read more

I found this movie strange but really cool. I loved the directing the concept, the guns! LOL. anyway Tara Lynne Barr is extremely cool and such a good child actress who is not really well known. Not an all time favorite film but a good one.

That's right, written and directed by Bobcat Goldthwait, yup, the crazy guy from the Police Academy movies.
If I had known that at the beginning of the movie I may not have watched it either (sorry Bobcat), I'm glad I didn't, because I watched it, loved it and was blown away when I found out who wrote/directed it. I greatly enjoyed this movie (probably not for everyone, dark humor for sure) ... read more

I enjoyed the film as well. While watching it I almost got the impression that Roxy did not exist anywhere but in the mind of Frank. She comes along very suddenly and provides all the things that Fran

"Katsottu: 1.5.2013 Bill Murrayn veli saa kuulla, että hänellä on aivokasvain. Muutenkaan elämässä ei mene kummoisesti, illat katsotaan paskaa tosi-tv:tä, töistä tulee monoa ja tytärkin tuntuu vihaavan häntä. Tästä sitten kehkeytyy ajatus listiä tosi-tv:n kusipäisimpiä persoonia, joka on loistava idea. Harvemmin amerikkalainen musta komedia on ollut näin hykerryttävän hauskaa seurattavaa alusta loppuun.

First of all, the allegation that the film is political propaganda is pure bollocks. Despite the mockery of extreme right-wingers and 'Obama-as-Hitler' ridiculousness, "God Bless America" proves to be, like it's protagonist Frank, largely politically neutral.

By the beginning of the film, Frank (Joel Murray) is enraged and psychotically angry. Drinking and fantasizing about killing the inconsiderately loud next-door couple and their b” read more
