Sacha Baron Cohen is at it again, thank goodness because I really needed to overwrite the memories of Bruno with something better. I am a big fan of Borat, even with all its outlandishness, but Bruno was just wrong. Sacha now brings us this new character, Aladeen the dictator, and he’s back to basics. Yes the movie is brimming with outlandishness as you’d expect. There is a good amount of shock humor, normal humor, stupid humor, slapstick, and it’s even corny at times too. The movie itself is not exactly great, but it’s not meant to be; it’s meant to be funny and it is there that it succeeds, if you don’t mind Sacha’s style of humor. He really pushes the envelope with this extreme humor. It’s what he does best. It’s crazy, it’s raunchy, and it’s fun. READ FULL REVIEW
