From comedian Bobcat Goldthwait comes the dark satire God Bless America. It’s the story of a mild mannered guy who snaps after learning that he has a brain tumor, and decides to go on a killing spree. While there are a lot of funny scenes, the overall tone of the film is inconsistent. It tries to offer some social commentary about the state of pop culture and the debasement of society, but the plot’s too unfocused for its messages to have any kind of poignancy. Yet despite its weakness, God Bless America is an entertaining comedy that delivers some good laughs.
