Past Run
World’s Greatest Dad
From writer-director Bobcat Goldthwait, a pitch black comedy about a high school English teacher (Robin Williams) whose ludicrous dreams of literary fame come bizarrely true when his churlish teen son suffers an embarrassing accident.
“A crazy, foul-mouthed black comedy that blows up every rule of taste and common sense and somehow gets away with it.” (Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly)
“Scandalously entertaining.” (Aaron Hillis, Village Voice)
““savagely funny, unexpectedly touching exploration of the human need to idealize and romanticize the dead””
— Nathan Rabin, AV Club
