Personally, I didn't think it was as good as Borat or Bruno as the second half seemed a bit forced. However, there are still plenty of people who find this sort of humour funny (and I'm one of them).
Vulgar, crude, politically INcorrect are just some of the terms you could use - depending on your opinion.īasically, 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. If you've seen any of them, then you probably know what to expect from Sacha Baron Cohen. On the other hand, if you cringe at racist and stereotype jokes, you will be covering your ears virtually the entire movie.Īli G, Borat, Bruno. If you're looking for a movie with consistent but crude laugh-out-loud comedy, but do not look for a serious and powerful plot, then you will enjoy this film. It made me realize how well Sacha Baron Cohen understands politics and stereotypes. I will say this though, the ending speech of this movie given by 'The Dictator' really impressed me.
The plot itself is not very immersive, and I believe that its only purpose is to lead you to the funny parts. It's not the dramatic and sensitive kind of love story though. Also, just like most of Sacha Baron Cohen movies, there is a love story intertwined. The plot is your typical Sacha Baron Cohen plot a person from an entirely different culture travels to America and you watch how incompatible the two cultures are. The movie is definitely funny, but you will not enjoy it if you do not find jokes about racism and stereotypes funny.
It has the same LOL- quality as it did in Borat, but there are scenes where the comedy is so crude that it is almost uncomfortable watching/listening to it. The comedy in this movie is both hilarious and uncomfortable at times. This movie strikes a balance between the two, but leans more towards (my personally favored) Borat side. I found Borat to be hilarious, but Bruno was a bit over the top for me. I have seen other movies by Sacha Baron Cohen, like Bruno and Borat. I would consider that we both have a good sense of humor and are open to all sorts of jokes.
