Dictator
Now, I take great offence to your (generous) score.
That "comedy" and believe me I am using that term very loosely, didnt raise a single laugh or smile, in me. I can't think of a single scene/sketch in the entire movie, which was remotely amusing. It was a terrible movie, with a terrible plot (which isn't too big a deal in a cheap comedy), which happens to be unfunny. I've had more laughs in a serious drama.
I am currently struggling to even think of a movie (comedy) which was so unfunny.
I actually liked Sacha's previous movies. I loved Ali G. Who can forget the scene where he is being jerked off by a blind man, while being tied to the gate, in broad daylight, while the blind man's dog observes?
The Campaign
Not great, but not bad either. Just average. If they showed this movie on the telly, I'd watch it (unlike the Dictator).
Ted
I saw this today. I wasn't expecting much, but it was half decent (unlike The Dictator). The short exchanges between Ted and his boss were absolutely hilarious. Ted wanted to get fired, but his boss kept promoting him. During those scenes, the script was tight and the delivery was fast. It couldn't have been done any better.
Miracle
I just saw this on BBC2. This movie is better than all of the movies listed above.
The climax and final game vs the USSR was great and had me at the edge of my seat.
Great sports movie.
