If you’re a fan of so-bad-it’s-good then this will be right up your street. It’s enjoyable naffness that’s to be taken with an ocean’s worth of salt.

The Five-Year Engagement
Like much of Apatow’s work, this is too long to be enjoyable. With a more compact runtime and less oddbal characters flying around, it could have been much better.
Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted
Inoffensive fun for the kids with everyone tagging along from the first two installments but with enough new stuff to keep the kids, and any adults who might be partially paying attention, entertained.
Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan
One of the defining comedies of the Noughties that somehow makes you think despite being hugely offensive and, on the surface, pretty absurb.
Hello! How Are You?
A refreshingly different romantic comedy that paints love in Romanian in a new light.
The Dictator
Not exactly original or groundbreaking but The Dictator is Sasha Baron Cohen back to his best. Lots of offensively good gags and a massive performance from the comedian himself.
