Comedian Bobcat Goldthwait writes & directs Robin Williams with a brilliant performance in the depressingly cynical and darkly humorous World's Greatest Dad.
It takes huge risks exploring teen suicide and the ridiculous near celebrity status that follows it. Making fools of the people who just want to feel pain for the attention and lack of real drama in their own shallow little lives, the film isn't afraid to make you very uncomfortable. Where as most R-rated comedies are usually mindless, dumb fun, World's Greatest Dad is subtle, thoughtful and punches this inane society square in the face.
