Screenwriters Sacha Baron Cohen Dan Mazer

Running Time 88 minutes

Ali G InDaHouse (15)

Plot
Stirring up a political scandal, the Deputy Prime Minister gets Ali G elected as MP for Staines. But while the "Keep It Real" doctrine proves popular, Ali is more concerned about saving the local community centre and boning some Grade-A booty.

Verdict
Relentlessly juvenile, it will offend moralists while making fans laugh out loud. It's only when demands of storytelling intrude that the film can't keep it up (snigger, snigger).
