Secondly they, just sometimes, make us laugh and thirdly, they give us something to talk about after the movie to, in this case, our newly acquainted Manchester friends on our free Manchester cinema night.

Sacha Baron Cohen dons his latest guise as the tasteless yet hilarious Dictator which looks at all of he rules of political correctness and leaves them right at the door.

One of best scenes will undoubtedly paint a wry smile on your face when The Dictator pronounces America as a dictatorship, without directly naming ‘The Land of the Free’, of course.

Cameos by Hollywood stars Ed Norton and Megan Fox take us by surprise but, of course, like the characters he has previously created, Cohen is always at the heart of the hilarity, this time working from a script as opposed to improvising with an unsuspecting public.
