God Bless America – Review

God Bless America – Review

Review by FilmFellaHenry – 7.9/10

Ever since Breaking Bad’s excellent portrayal of a good man’s moral decline, desperate anti-heroes have become all the rage. And I’m certainly not complaining: personally I find whiter-than-white protagonists boring in the extreme, not to mention largely unbelievable (as Batman keeps proving time and time again).

It seems that screeching actor/comedian/director Bobcat Goldthwait also shares this view, showcased in his new movie God Bless America. Drawing the good from both Kick Ass and Super, the gimmicky superhero bravado is gladly discarded, Goldthwaite preferring a Falling Down-esque premise of a normal guy going postal.
