thameros I did not watch the film, but the advertising poster suggests to the rulers of the Gulf, such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, not Iraq, Saddam, riding the horse, and there is no chin. The West destroyed the people of Iraq and kept the rulers of the Gulf /end I'm don't like saddam

Morten_5 + Sacha Baron Cohen's outrageous but liberating total lack of political correctness. + The amazingly ridiculous beard of Aladeen. + Anna Faris' and S.B.C.'s unexpected chemistry. + The music and the songs, which are really good and greatly adds to the atmosphere and the humour. - "The Dictator" is not as wonderfully great and funny as "Borat...". Nothing is. Still, you can't help comparing.

areatw I'm a big fan of Sacha Baron Cohen and 'Borat' remains today one of my favourite comedy movies of all time. No matter how many movies he makes, I doubt any of them will come close to 'Borat'. I was a fan of 'Bruno' too, so I couldn't wait to see what 'The Dictator' had to offer. I did enjoy it, but I do think that Cohen's other movies are better.'The Dictator' is refreshingly politically incorrect at a time when film-makers go out of their way to avoid causing offense. I thought the character 'Zoey', an obnoxious left-wing feminist, was a particularly funny and accurate representation of many people in society today. I loved that side of the movie. However, I did feel that there were chunks of the movie that didn't provide any laughs whatsoever, which was disappointing for a Cohen film.'The Dictator' is an entertaining and funny film, but I must admit that it didn't meet my high expectations. Probably Cohen's worst film, but still worth a watch.

bowmanblue Ali G, Borat, Bruno. If you've seen any of them, then you probably know what to expect from Sacha Baron Cohen. Vulgar, crude, politically INcorrect are just some of the terms you could use - depending on your opinion.Basically, if you're easily offended, you probably won't want to watch the tale of an evil Middle Eastern Dictator who finds himself lost in America amidst a plot to oust him from power.However, there are still plenty of people who find this sort of humour funny (and I'm one of them). Personally, I didn't think it was as good as Borat or Bruno as the second half seemed a bit forced. The film lasted just under the typical hour and a half mark, but probably could have got away with being an hour long. It would probably have been a pretty funny hour - if you like that sort of thing.The major criticisms being thrown at The Dictator is claims of racism (just like Borat and Ali G, not to mention claims of homophobia at Bruno) and whether the film mocks Middle Eastern stereotypes, or whether it actually attacks those who impose the stereotypes. The film has also come under fire for being too 'pro-Jew' too anti-American and generally too liberal. Maybe that's true, maybe it's not. It's one of those arguments where if you're looking to use this film to support or challenge your own political viewpoint or religious beliefs there are arguments for and against.The bottom line is that it's quite funny. Quite. Not as good as Borat or Bruno, but still there are plenty of silly and vulgar (and I should emphasis the words 'silly' and 'vulgar' because they're the backbone of this film) moments to make you laugh out loud. Probably not a classic, but entertaining nonetheless.
