Rating: 7 out of 10, a Netflix rental because I’m not a huge Cohen fan but the trailer looked hilarious. I was truly and pleasantly surprised by how consistently funny this movie was. So many stereotypes were attacked and exposed that this movie had me laughing from start to finish. Cohen was prefect as a clueless despot forced to live a normal New Yorker’s existence for a while. Some of the funniest bits were A-list movie stars portrayed as selling themselves to foreigners. You really had to pay attention to catch some of the funniest lines and almost hidden cameos. Cohen is so funny in this type comedy that I wonder why he does the reality shock thing so relentlessly – he has real talent as a comedic actor which is rare.
MVP: Cohen – as Admiral General Aladeen, so funny when he wants to be and not trying to just shock people
