The Republic of Wadiya is ruled by an eccentric and oppressive leader named Hafez Aladeen. Aladeen is summoned to New York to a UN assembly to address concerns about his countrys nuclear weapons program but the trip goes awry.
Review
I usually avoid movies I know will be explicit and include crude humor because it's just not my cup of tea. So right off the bat I was expecting this movie to be absolutely horrible... I do not know if it was my low expectations before the screening but I actually enjoyed this movie very much. In order to enjoy this movie however you do have to somewhat detach yourself from thinking too much into the wealth of racist and crude humor contained in the movie. Nevertheless The Dictator is satire it is a movie making fun of the real world and if you let it be it makes you aware (while laughing) at the racist thoughts and stereotypes ordinary people have everyday. Yes it has its strange and explicit scenes but overall I think it has substance and it was very funny. Put your "Victorian" influences aside for a night and have a good laugh. Watch it.
