Rating: 3/4 -- ...a bitterly dark comedy whose aim is uncomfortably true. Full Review

Rating: 5/5 -- The bravest, smartest comedy of the year. Full Review

[Goldthwait] does pull off the considerable feat of drawing an entirely believable, sympathetic and funny performance from Williams.

Rating: 4/5 -- 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.
London Evening Standard
Sep 29, 2010
Rating: 3/5 -- This film is bold and provocative, but it's weak at the core. It is the weakness of an old dog trying desperately to learn new tricks. Full Review
Guardian
Sep 23, 2010
[A] toxic satire of celebrity, hypocrisy, and the power of idiotic suggestion. Williams hasn't been this sympathetic in years. -- Grade: B+
Entertainment Weekly
Sep 4, 2009
[F]ully charged with angst and anguish and unrelenting bitterness that periodically gives way to one of the year's sweetest, sincerest character dramas.

Product Description:

Comedy giants Robin Williams and Bobcat Goldthwait collaborate on this darkly funny film that played at Sundance. After the shocking accidental death of his son, Lance (Williams) writes a fake suicide note to keep his family from more trouble. But Lance is a talented writer, and the letter soon becomes an entire book which Lance is eager to sell. Goldthwait directs a cast that also includes Daryl Sabara and Alexie Gilmore.
