i think the movie looks really gay, just some arab guy doing shit for his country, wtf how is that funny?
before you even think about watching this movie, watch some of the brilliance that is "Da Ali G Show". Become familiar with him and then see this. You'll fully understand then

Goddamnit what a fucking movie. A little short, but alas, fucking genius. The man on man hotel scene was waaaaaaay too funny. I'm cracking up just writing about it.
That shit was flawless, I was damn near traumatized at that part!
