Ali G in Da House

Has anyone seen this?
I think he is hilarious.
He also had a show on HBO that was pretty good.

It was originally on C4, the genre of wigger/chav satire was revolutionised. The film was a sell out, the jokes were all low level. The two part show he did where Borrat went to America made me laugh for days.

Yes, Borrat is an awesome character of his.
I think that his shows and short videos are better than the movie, but he cracks me up in general.

Yeah, the film is crap compared to his work of the 11 O'Clock News, it was progressively dumbed down from that point onwards...

Having said that, if you're after a film where you don't want to think for 90 mins, go for it, but I'd recommend anything Kevin Smith has done over it (Yes, even Jersey Girl...)

You can't be serious about the Jersey Girl comment can you?
The movie was absolutly terrible.

And you're saying Ali G wasn't?

The jokes were 90% just utterly derivative or lifted from previous Ali G shows...

Doesn't mean I didn't see it and laugh first time I saw it, just mean it was a piece of crap...

And I admire Smith for daring to make that film, because it was what he wanted to make, even if he was possibly losing a lot of fanbase in the process... Doesn't mean it wasn't fairly poor itself though...

That is true... Ali G in Da House was pretty bad.

I also admire Smith for making the movie, but it was still bad...
as was Ali G but I laughed far more in Ali G then I did in Jersey Girl.

True, I cringe when I think about the Houses of Pariliament scenes in In Da House though...
