As comedies go these days, its not too bad. Too many inside jokes and gay references for my taste but, what the heck its a comedy.
The movie did clearly portray the regime in terms of a slave state. In this regard it performed a valuable public service in explaining to a large segment of the population (young, dumb and you know the rest) exactly what kind of person is running North Korea. I haven't seen Chaplin's "The Dictator" but in some ways this movie serves the same purpose, ridicule of a despotic leader.
Pray tell,..what is the FR free link for the film?
