The Hunger Games (DVD & Blu-ray)
In a not-too-distant future, North America has collapsed, weakened by drought, fire, famine, and war to be replaced by Panem, a country divided into the Capitol and 12 districts. Each year two young representatives from each district are selected by lottery to participate in The Hunger Games. Part entertainment, part brutal intimidation of the subjugated districts, the televised games are broadcast throughout Panem. The 24 participants are forced to eliminate their competitors, literally, with all citizens required to watch. When 16-year-old Katniss' young sister, Prim, is selected as the mining district's female representative, Katniss volunteers to take her place. She and her male counterpart Peeta, will be pitted against bigger, stronger representatives who have trained for this their whole lives.

The Dictator (Banned and unrated)
If it's a Sacha Baron Cohen movie, there's going to be a fair amount of low-brow and potentially insulting humor, but also a good deal of genuine character-driven fun. The actor's latest Comedy is The Dictator, an ofttimes brilliant story of a strong-armed but out-of-touch North African dictator who travels to America to avert disaster but instead discovers all the glorious things that have been missing from his life, like masturbation, a real girlfriend, and the benefits of going green. But it's not all fun and games and executions of anyone who stands in his way, questions his authority, or dares make him perform an honest day's work. The movie sometimes sinks fairly low and loses track of what makes it tick -- brilliant political satire, chiefly -- a little more than it should, but the genuine gut-busting humor and Cohen's rhythmic portrayal of a madman gone comically insane saves the movie from falling flat. In fact, Cohen's character is so over-the-top that The Dictator extends well beyond the mere political Comedy/Parody and into something else altogether, something so outrageous but at the same time absurdly honest that it practically forms its own genre. This is gross humor at its finest and satire at its best, meshed together quite unlike any movie has done before. All hail The Dictator.
In his own genre, Sacha Baron Cohen delivers what fans expect with terroristic humor aimed at any group that can spare a pain filled laugh. Fan will love the absurdity and special features!
