Movie Review: World's Greatest Dad

HDNET is owned by the same company as Magnolia Pictures. In an attempt to gain subscribers, they show a sneak preview on their movie channel of upcoming limited theatrical releases. This month’s movie is called “World’s Greatest Dad”. The movie is written and directed by Bobcat Goldthwait, yes the guy from Police Academy is making movies. The movie stars Robin Williams as a single parent, aspiring writer, high school teacher with a porn addicted shithead of a son named Kyle. **SPOILER ALERT** The ass hole kid dies from auto-erotic asphyxiation (jerking to up-skirt pics of his dad’s girlfriend) and the “World’s Greatest Dad” covers it up to make it look like a suicide. When the phony suicide note is released to the school populous, the once hated Kyle becomes the most popular kid in school. Robin capitalizes on this new found popularity and ghost writes Kyle’s journal which rockets him into stardom.
**SAFE TO READ**
Robin Williams delivers yet another great performance. This movie has some great characters, a great story and never hesitates to go where conventional films will not. Final thoughts rent this movie if you can, because it is likely there will not be a wall of copies at Blockbuster. I will give it 4 out of 5 German Shizer Videos.
