Ah, this is just what I needed today.  With the onslaught of blockbuster spectacle films banging down my door it's a nice change of pace to just laugh at some silly shit.  Sacha Baron Cohen's THE DICTATOR is just what the movie doctor ordered to balance out the aforementioned tentpole films that are gracing theaters this summer and judging by the opening scene, I think we're going to be in for some solid laughs. 

Check it out:

Co-starring Anna Faris, John C. Reilly, and Ben Kingsley, THE DICTATOR has all the right ingredients to be THE comedy of the summer. 

We'll find out for sure in a few weeks when THE DICTATOR hits theaters on May 16, 2012.

This pic of Anna Faris is pretty damn Aladeen, right?

Extra Tidbit: I'd like to see Sacha Baron Cohen play a stereotypical redneck character. It would break him out of the middle-eastern schtick and challenge him a bit. Could be fun. What would you like to see him do next?

"You are HIV-Aladeen."

Looks even funnier than I expected! And the mother "dying in childbirth", too - can't wait!
