   "The Dictator" is funny, in addition to being obscene, disgusting, scatological, vulgar, crude and so on. Having seen Sacha Baron Cohen promoting it on countless talk shows, I feared the movie would feel like deja vu. But no. He establishes a claim to be the best comic filmmaker now working. And in a speech about dictatorships, he practices merciless political satire.

   It has moments that are so absurd, that you might feel repulsed, but 'The Dictator' at least stays true to its genre. The Screenplay Written by Alec Berg, David Mandel, Jeff Schaffer & Sacha himself, is funny, but crass & overtly crude, but it never loses pace. Larry Charles's Direction is adequate.

   Is the dictator a satire or a funny movie?

   • Nevertheless, The Dictator is satire, it is a movie making fun of the real world, and if you let it be, it makes you aware (while laughing) at the racist thoughts and stereotypes ordinary people have everyday. Yes, it has its strange and explicit scenes, but overall, I think it has substance and it was very funny.

   Is 'the dictator' Baron Cohen's weakest film?

   • The result is Cohen's weakest film to date. Assuming you're not easily offended, The Dictator is laugh-out-loud comedy at its best. It might seem that here, Baron Cohen is doing nothing but poking fun at a couple of dead dictators. But their spirit is alive and well across the Middle East. And his satire can hit home.

   Who was 'the dictator' based on?

   • Dedicated “In loving memory of Kim Jong-il,” who occupied a place of comic honor in Team America: World Police, The Dictator can only have been made with two other late despots, Muammar Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein, especially in mind, given the extent of ego and quantity of medals brandished by Admiral General Aladeen (Baron Cohen) of Wadiya.
