Beware that poster, with its jolly red writing and Mork from Ork's face thereon. This is not the Robin Williams of Old Dogs and License To Wed.
Variety
July 06, 2010
Goldthwait's script turns into a surprisingly restrained, focused sendup of the blind adulation often bestowed on flawed personalities once they croak too soon.
September 27, 2010
A comedy of quite astonishing blackness.
September 04, 2009
There's more going on here than the age-old struggle between maturity and its surly teen antithesis.
London Evening Standard
September 29, 2010
Goldthwait has given it a title that will make some shy away. But don't. It's a comedy about the particularly American capacity to create legends out of the dead, and it's sharper than most.
August 20, 2014
...a bitterly dark comedy whose aim is uncomfortably true.
September 22, 2010
The bravest, smartest comedy of the year.
Denver Post
September 11, 2009
Making Kyle godawful may seem edgy, even authentic. But it's pure setup.
June 30, 2011
... This voyage through the moral maze is more entertaining and whisper it quietly, more profound, than most.
September 21, 2009
Offering Robin Williams his richest role in memory while serving up a nice cold bowl of shock soup for the audience, World's Greatest Dad is a surprisingly smart and severely twisted dark comedy from comic Bobcat Goldthwait.
August 11, 2014
Here, Williams has a chance to do some of the most integral, gentle and praiseworthy acting of his career.
September 11, 2009
With his delicate mix of sick humor and compassion, Goldthwait is that rare comic writer who can legitimately be compared to Lenny Bruce.
