The Dictator (2012)
7/10
The reason why i avoid watching trailers for comedies.

Just to note i haven't watched "Borat" or "Bruno",so i only kinda knew what to expect from the movie.

In short it's a really great film,filed with great humour and great actors,that doesn't take itself too seriously and it shouldn't be taken seriously from the audience around the globe.It's lighthearted comedy for those who have a hour or two to spare.

The main problem for me (as noted in the title) is that the trailer gave away maybe 70% of the really really funny parts.I remember seeing the trailer for the first time i laughed for a good 5 minutes after it ended.The second time i saw it,it actually convinced me to go and see the movie later on,expecting much more from it.

In the end i can't say i was disappointed i still think it's a great movie,just with a trailer that gives away less of the really funny moments it would have been a much,much more memorable experience.But i guess that's my mistake since i know that trailers usually give away 50% of the comedies these days.
