... View MoreVery interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
... View MoreThis is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
... View MoreDa Ali G Show may not have been the first place where real people have been put in uncomfortable situations for the sake of entertaining an audience, but it is definitely the most thought provoking, edgy, and hilarious incarnation of the format for our time. The list of Sascha Baron Cohen's unfortunate interviewees is unbelievable, a survey of controversial figures from the worlds of politics, fashion, and caricatures of everyday types. And he milks each one for what we all really want to hear them say. The personas of Ali G, Borat, and Bruno are all brilliantly developed and right in the pocket of what is just barely believable to the subjects in the moment, and entirely ridiculous in the hindsight of the program. My favorite moments are when you can tell that Cohen himself can hardly believe what is coming out of the mouths of his subjects. It is a great reminder to be careful not to believe everything you encounter in the world, and to take a good moment to think before speaking- especially when you're being recorded.
... View MoreSacha Baron Cohen aka Ali G is just absolutely brilliant and this video/dvd of his award-winning show is absolutely hilarious. Da Ali G Show is definitely one to be owned by everyone. Since, Ali G, first came on to our screen, he was destined to be a comedy classic and of course he is. Ali G is the best and I give his fantastic show, Da Ali G Show, a well deserving 20/20.
... View MoreAli G is the most original comedy character to come out of Britain since Alan Patridge. At first, on The 11 O'Clock Show, he was a stupid, uninformed waster, who wanted to be a black rapper, who thought drugs and violence and rap were cool because his friends told him so. An all-too-acurate parody of British youth today, and hilariously funny.But when Ali G became popular enough to get his own show, it all changed. No longer was Ali a fool; he was somewhat of a hero for the kids who tuned in. They never understood his humour, nor where they mean to; this is 20-something cult comedy, and should have remained so. However, thanks to his new-found fame, Ali actor Sasha baron Cohen turned Ali into a character you laughed with rather than at. He was in on the joke, and instead of making viewers laugh at today's youth, he made today's youth laugh at the rest of society. It's still funny, but no way near as clever. It's a shame that such a great concept has been so diluted, but hey, that's what happens when cult goes swimming in the mainstream. Atleast Cohen's other character, Borat, is as unchanged as he is hilarious.
... View MoreAli G has to be the best talkshow host ever as he is not afraid of what he says. He interviews people with a sense of some seriousness but mainly getting laughs from the audience and his guests. M favourite episode is when he interviewed mohamed al fayed the owner of Harrods. He managed to get a 75 year old up and dancing and rapping with him. This show is definately worth watching**********out of **********
