5.0 out of 5 stars Now more than ever..., April 4, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Uncle Saddam (DVD)
I laughed all through the first half of this movie. It's not often we westerners get to see a medieval despot in action, and Saddam would have been right at home in the Middle Ages. Here's a guy who demands that his subjects kiss him on each armpit; who has Iraq's major newspapers run a front page photo of him every day of the week; who's favorite sport is fishing-with hand grenades(!); who allocates much of Iraq's limited wealth to build monuments to himself. I found myself not hating Saddam so much as I wanted to put him on display as a kind of curiosity, like in the Ripley museum.

The second half was much more sobering, focusing mainly on who was killing who to get ahead in the regime. All in all, you really have to admire the filmmaker (a Frenchman-Gasp!), who risked his life for the sake of ridiculing one of the most dangerous people on Earth. And for the record, I'm against the war, but that doesn't mean I don't think somebody needs to plug the S.O.B.

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing film..., April 29, 2003
This review is from: Uncle Saddam (DVD)
First, it is simply amazing that this film was ever made. When you watch the film, and realize how the director managed to obtain the footage, you will be astounded. This film presents Saddam in a satirical light, yet still manages to portray the true evil of the man and his regime. It is especially chilling when you realize that several of the people depicted in the film were executed shortly thereafter. In addition to showing the evil side of Saddam, you get to see glimpses of his fabulous lifestyle. He truly lives the life of the "Rich and Famous." However, his opulence is shown to be tragic when you are shown the vast suffering of the Iraqi people. If you wonder why we overthrew the government of Saddam, watch this film. Highly recommended!

By Chris Hollas "Larry" (Santa Monica, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Uncle Saddam (DVD)
Not only is Saddam a poison gas wielding monument building mass murdering dictator, he's a clean freak with a hat for every occasion. Good stuff.
