It’s missing a tiny bit to be the ultimate social satire comedy, but it’s a very good film, at least for those who have ever experienced (or rather, repeatedly experienced) the feeling of being surrounded by assholes who deserve to be punched in the face, at the very least. The sunshine folk, I’m afraid, will not appreciate it. God Bless America has brisk dialogues and is pleasantly incorrect and fun. It’s a pity, though, that its strongest part are the first minutes, when the protagonist gives a very interesting monologue in the office. The rest is more action-packed, but it bothered me that things work out a little too smoothly for the pair of avengers. I don't want to overestimate the police force, but given how careless Frank and Roxy behave, they would actually be shot or arrested no later than the next morning – I hope. PS: If you don’t put together your own kill-list while watching this, you aren’t normal. :-D

Consumerism is a concept that is not only experienced in America, although there it is probably the most developed. The director, who played Zed in the Police Academy movies and who has previously fascinated me with his films, is trying to talk about this issue in this movie. But it seems like he isn’t trying to please anyone with it. He is doing it his way. But it’s not just about that, it’s also about the principles of the film itself, so this film has a much bigger scope than it might seem. Joel Murray and Tara Lynne Barr are a really great duo for this film; the problem is that they get away with everything that happens in the film too easily. I don’t know how it works in America, but if it really was like that, then crossing the border would be much easier for Mexicans than the newspapers say. But let’s be honest here – newspapers are just a bunch of lies and half-truths. Anyway, I have to say that the idea for this film is not a bad one. And if nothing else, it will captivate you at first glance.

Classic criticism of the modern way of life in a funny and juicy guise. Some scenes are better than others, but I experienced a feeling of satisfaction almost all the way through. But some unpleasant questions raise their heads. Are we turning into Americans? Is our nation too really in such a bad state? Won’t somebody, please somebody film God Bless the Czech Republic? The message is definitely worth a full set of stars.
