After watching the similarly-themed Super, I was expecting something along those lines, but God Bless America, while still a satire, it pretty darn dark and bleak. It's more like Natural Born Killers - a lot of killing, so much so that the message the film is trying to send drowns in a sea of blood and a hail of bullets.

"There are a lot of crazy people out there." - Highway cop. Who on their right mind (or even on Earth) would like to shoot a crying baby when the irony is the person thinking about it has a daughter? Who gets fired for sending somebody flowers to a colleague? What is wromg with peopl who talk about Punk Rock? Who enjoys seeing somebody conduct suicide? A lunatic and a loner team-up, what's new? Had tones of Falling Down, Super, Taxi Driver, Kick-Ass, Natural Born Killers/Super (as Chris pointed out), and Clerks since it bashes societies values and ethics. Frank Murdoch (Joel Murray) is fed-up of pop culture, talk radio, and internet videos that is realistically crazy these day of age. Truly dark, gruesome and disturbing, scenes with soundtracks felt like a music video. Humor was …
