World's Greatest Dad


I just saw this movie on Netflix streaming on a recommendation and I'm going to go ahead and forward that recommendation to anyone reading this blog. One of the best dark comedies I've seen in a while, World's Greatest Dad stars Robin Williams as an unsuccessful writer/high school English teacher with a son who is, quite possibly, the most miserable human being on the planet. When Robin Williams finds his son dead in his room one night (the victim of an unfortunate auto-eroto-asphyxiation accident), he makes it look like a suicide and writes his son's suicide note. Hilarity ensues when the note becomes the only thing the Dad has ever written that people actually like.

Great movie that seems to have gone under the radar for the most part.
