The Hollywood Reporter

A raw comedy that is intermittently hilarious as it attacks pretty much every taboo around.

Leigh Paatsch

Herald Sun (Australia)

A tendency to steer all humour towards the toilet and to just keep flushing means this will only appeal to the most forgiving fans of Ali G.

Pre-Borat, a raunchy spoof of a hip-hop pretender.

Aged like fine wine. Had a few good giggles back in the day but now that generation has passed, it's even more halairious and nostalgic

Yes it's silly but some very funny content. Even funnier that the real life town of Staines officially changed its name due to this character

A brazen and poor attempt to cash in on the popularity of one of the small screen's most iconic characters. The humour was always going to be juvenile but this is cliched & lazy.

The satire of it is quite funny, particularly the portrayal of ‘gang' culture being the cringeworthy caricature that Hollywood coming-of-age movies paint it to be, and the scene in which the deputy prime minister reads out the budget that Ali wrote. Some of the jokes are a bit childish and cringy though. Sasha Baron Cohen carries the film, without him I'd have given it probably 2 stars.
