I still need to see this movie.

It's a movie that won't disappoint, so make sure you do see it! Defiantly, one of Martin Scorsese's great films and that is saying something.
The "magic" tag helps define the feeling your left with after seeing this film so its use is well used here, for many reasons well deserved and earned...


Personally, I found it to be HUGELY overrated. I really came away from it going 'meh, it was ok'.

* I really disliked the forced colour palette of teal and orange
* I disliked that it was set in France, and yet everyone spoke English
* I found the story just basic fare, with just the fact that it was saying how life changing and wondrous film was being the thing which probably made those in the industry think it was the best thing in the world because it made their profession seem more important than it was.
* I found the humour (especially that of Sasha Baron Cohen's character) to be pretty low level slapstick.

I didn't hate it, but it's not a film I would chose to watch again. Maybe I would have enjoyed it more if it weren't so hyped as being the second coming of christ.

This guy poses as various characters, most famously a pimp and a telephone repairman, in order to try and get embarrassing footage of liberals. He's kind of a conservative Sasha Baron Cohen minus brains, talent and success. In this ruse, he was posing as a journalism student to try and get some professor in trouble. His cover was blown and the school official refused to condemn the professor in question. >> ^bareboards2:

Not sure how he was "foiled".

Nope. He really got me. I believed it 100%. Poe's law indeed.

And kudos and thanks to the OP and all the commenters to that point who kept the ruse going. What a brilliantly conceived and executed stunt.>> ^arghness:

This interviewer is an asshat. He should never have pressed Cohen to break character. Weak sauce.

You realise it's not really Cohen? Maybe you forgot the sarcasm checkbox?

No, Monckton is definitely a real person, even though I would have liked it better if he had just been a character.

Poe's Law in action.

Wait, so this isn't Cohen? I thought it was, that the parody tag was because Cohen was parodying climate change deniers, but apparently this is a real guy and this is parodying Cohen's parodies. Right?

Google searching these guys is interesting. Apparently he's South Africa's Sasha Baron Cohen.

Eminem definitely knew something was up, but I doubt he agreed beforehand to get balls in the face.It's very typical of Sasha Baron Cohen to get someone to agree to an interview/prank willingly and then turn the tables on them.

This sequence and the bit about the meat-pies were my two favorites.

Up-vote for Sasha Baron Cohen in funny clothes.

The market permits a lot of 'crass' behavior. If only all of it was Sasha Baron Cohen style, as opposed to basically swindling people out of billions.

Sasha Baron Cohen has a rival. That is all.
