God Bless America


*ing : Joel Murray, Tara Lynne Barr and Mackenzie Brooke Smith
Director : Bobcat Goldthwait

Tagline : Taking out the trash, one jerk at a time.

To start with , I have to say that I love country America. Like any country, it has issues too. Obsessed with war, youth being addicted to drugs, adults living on anti depression drugs, failing economy etc etc. yet, this has been one of the greatest country in the world. They hv invented pretty much everything around us. Including the laptop I am working or the program on which this text is being typed. And hopefully also the device you are reading on it. Everything we consume, wear has been invented in US (now may be manufactured in china). Pizza, burgers, coke Pepsi, apple, facebook, dell, HP, Jeans, computers, Hollywood, laptops and many technological thing.
Country has amazing amount of liberty to its filmmakers and general public. You can make as brutal film criticizing and accusing government like Fahrenheit 9/11 and yet it ll get mainstream release. You can wear their flag as underwear or panties yet its acceptable. America has been the dream destination for entire world for most of the part of their life.
God bless America talk abt a man who is seeing the system and culture falling and he feels helpless. He is a good American lived life with dignity. He has issues like his wife has left him and now he has lost his job. In alone time he watches TV and that’s where he painfully sees where America is going. Every channel is filled with ridiculous reality TV making celebrities out of ordinary people mostly at the cost of their buffoony or talent. A fad which is fast catching up in India and other part of worlds too..! he wants to kill himself but instead thinks its better to kill people who are spoiling the society. So with an unlikely partner, an underage girl, he goes on killing spree wiping out every rash individual he sees around. Right from ppl using reality TV to ppl not parking their car right or making too much noise in cinema halls. His methods may be incorrect but his frustration leads him to this extent. Film is also mix of Natural Born Killers and Fight Club but surely not as well made as previous two. However you do admit the fact that there is lot of thing wrong with society.
