A movie whose funniest parts can be watched on the trailer. It wasn't bad, I just wouldn't run out to ever see it again.

This one says it all. The final speach is really brilliant and a real eye-opener if they werent open yet. This should be a movie that all presidents, ministets ect. should see. Without any exception. This movie is a real 'must see' and even a 'I want to see this one once more movie'. ...

Rude, crude and occasionally funny - if you are a Sacha Baron Cohen fan, it's worth it to check out - just beware that for every chuckle you get out of it, you'll probably groan at the stupidity of it all by a factor of five.

It is very funny in parts, but really bad in others. Definitely a rental.

It wasn't as funny as some of the stuff Sacha Baron Cohen has done before. It wasn't that good but maybe worth a watch if your bored.

A far cry from Borat!!!

Being a huge fan of Sacha's, i was jumping for joy when i heard he was making another of his comedies for the big screen. I loved 'Borat' to pieces and no matter how many times i watch it i always produce that belly laugh that i so long for in watching comedies. Then along came Bruno, not so bad but still relatively funny. Well after finishing 'The Dictator' I think i laughed twice at the whole thing and with Sacha's movies that my freind is rare!! The storyline was alright but i'm asking myself if Sacha's ways of pushing the envelope so to speak has either gotten soft or timid? Missing in this film were any real 'OMG' moments the moments that made me fall in love with his films in the first place.

I'll keep this review short as there is really not much more to say. I will end this...
