The Dictator (2012)

⁣The Dictator is a satirical comedy starring Sacha Baron Cohen as Admiral General Aladeen, the eccentric and oppressive ruler of the fictional North African Republic of Wadiya. Determined to prevent democracy from reaching his country, Aladeen travels to New York City to address the United Nations, but his carefully controlled world quickly falls apart after a conspiracy threatens to remove him from power.


Stranded in New York without his familiar authority or privileges, Aladeen encounters Zoey, an idealistic activist who introduces him to an entirely different way of life. As he attempts to regain control of Wadiya, he becomes involved in a series of outrageous situations that parody dictatorships, international politics, cultural stereotypes, and modern democracy.


Directed by Larry Charles, The Dictator combines political satire, dark comedy, and absurd humor. The film stars Sacha Baron Cohen, Anna Faris, and John C. Reilly and remains one of Cohen's best-known comedy films.
