Review of Grimsby (2016) by Omar L — 17 Mar 2016
Borat was a fluke, and Sacha Baron Cohen's brand of humor is only marginally better than Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer. The simplicity of the plot would be acceptable if the jokes that populated the movie were in any way funny, but they're not.
They're terrible jokes that are so broad, it's insulting to think that anyone with half a brain would find them funny. This is the type of movie that where the world would be a better place had the money spent on this movie been spent on giving bottled water to needy people.
This will be the last Sacha Baron Cohen movie that I will see in a theater. He, like Adam Sandler, is cinematic poison, and it's not worth anyone's time and energy to go to a movie theater and experience 90 minutes of rectum and genital jokes.
