Ali G Indahouse (2002)
Member Rating:  
Britain's satirist-of-all-trades Ali G (aka Sacha Baron Cohen) makes his feature-film debut with this gross-out comedy set against the backdrop of the House of Parliament. Where his British and U.S. TV shows had him conducting absurd interviews with real-life politicians and lawmakers, Ali G Indahouse casts him against Charles Dance as Carlton, an unscrupulous member of the House who's intent on upsetting the current Prime Minister (Michael Gambon) in the next election. Hoping to attract negative attention to the leader, Ali G is promoted as a running mate of sorts -- a tactic that backfires in Carlton's face as the clueless rapper quickly ascends the political ladder. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi

This was a very funny movie! It may be a little challenging to follow his strong British accent and British slang. If you liked spoofs like Austin Powers you'll love this movie.

I love Da Ali G Show, but "Indahouse" was simply not funny. The greatest thing about the TV show was watching REAL people have genuine reactions to Cohen's charecters. The movie is scripted, predictable, and boring. Full of cliches and bathroom humor that only a 12 year-old(or mental equivalent) would find funny.

Stick to the episodes. I'm a big fan, but this was pretty terrible. Season 2 is absolutely hysterical, but the movie comes up short.

Most of these obligatory tv-based movies fall flat on the big screen. But this was inventive, fresh, and entertaining. Don't expect The Godfather here, but it is a great time.

There are 2 kinds of people... The kind who get Ali, and the people who don't. If you are one of the people who do, you'll dig this flick. If you're one of those who don't, look elsewhere. There are several parts of the movie that are 'laugh at loud' funny. Wicked flick!

Funny with some good belly laughs. If you didn't like it then you're too uptight

Please don't let this movie be anyone's first exposure to Ali G. This movie contains none of the innovative satire present in the Ali G show. It makes me wonder if the show's writers even understand what makes their show so funny. It's sad to think that they accidentally stumbled into something so culturally revealing, without really 'getting it' themselves.

Yes   |   No

Like the show, mostly hated the movie

Yes   |   No


Jason L.

Though I like Ali G., this movie was absolute garbage. I don't think I laughed at any point. Do yourself a favor and skip this one. One star is more than it deserves.
