Dear Dictator

Dear Dictator_720p(480P)

This is so good movie with good story, and great cast

Quite a strange movie this one, not quite sure what it was trying to achieve. From the foot * dentist and the stalker mistress/mum, a peeping tom school teacher and the dictator who made his way to America to seek refuge with his pen pal (all while in full uniform), this movie was just a bit of hot mess. Strangely, I couldn't stop watching this, perhaps I should of though. The cast is really wasted in this movie, can't see how or why they got involved in this one, the money couldn't have been that good. But to quote Mr Caine "You get paid the same for a bad film as you do for a good one", so maybe he did alright here. You won't laugh much, if at all here. The story is pretty poor and it will leave you questioning how some movies actually get a green light.

Very sweet. Awesome premise. Good acting. Could be more clever or witty. Obviously. But I love that it's different We need to make more movies like this that takes risks and just follows a different formula

I saw the previews to this and thought it might actually be a cute movie... i was wrong. When I see Jason Biggs I think of the funny scenes in American pie, this movie had nothing funny. Katie Holmes was just not convincing and I found her character a bit disgusting. I can't believe Mr. Cane agreeded to do this film. In all it was a good movie to waste time to but just wouldn't recommend.

OK, so there were no superheroes, just Michael Caine as a cranky old dictator and Katie Holmes as a stressed-out mom. It was a bit understated at times, but moved along at a nice, even pace and had some nice acting. The script seems to have been well thought out and there were plenty of (mostly) subtle laughs to be enjoyed. I definitely feel as though my time was well spent watching it. If you're looking for car chases and explosions, you'll need to look elsewhere, but it's good for its genre. I enjoyed it.

Tatiana Mills (Odeya Rush) is an American suburban teen. Her single mom Darlene (Katie Holmes) is having an affair with her married dentist boss Dr Charles Seaver (Seth Green) with a foot *. The whale-tailed mean girls at school call themselves the Slushies. She has a crush on her Christian friend Denny. Her social studies teacher Mr Spines (Jason Biggs) give the class an assignment to write to a pen pal. She picks ruthless Latin American dictator Anton Vincent (Michael Caine). When American backed rebels overtake his country, he finds his way into Tatiana's garage. It's a wacky Mean Girls take with a bloody dictator. I'm a little leery of Caine as a Latin American dictator. Rush is a pretty good standard grumpy teen. There are a lot of wackiness but it rarely results in laughs. There are some moments of surprise laughs, mostly with Rush and Caine together. I really like that combo. I do wish for taking on more risk and pushing more comedy into the movie. It does help that I like both Rush and Caine.

If you are expecting a dark humor just like in the dictator you will be disappointed. This is more like a family movie with lighter sense of humor. You can tell from the trailer itself that it is almost a clumsily made film. You might enjoy the movie if you are not too critical.

If there was ever a send up of Fidel Castro then this is it. Shame about the rest of the film - not half as funny as it could of been.. As a Castro lookalike he is brilliant but when he saved and went "Mexican" what were the filmmakers thinking. When Micheal Caine made Jaws 3 he admitted it was to build a house - so poor was the film but the paycheck is a different matter. With this he either made a conservatory or bought a new car. I doubt if the budget spread to another house.

I love the movie and I loved the message behind it. And what it stand for. I can not stop watching it.
