Jimmy Vestvood: Amerikan Hero

This movie was super entertaining and made me laugh about a million times.

I recommend this movie to anybody who likes borat style comedy films that are family friendly. I am an Iranian and enjoyed this thoroughly, but you don't need to be Iranian to enjoy the film. Majority of the people disliking or leaving negative reviews on the movie are oppressed by the jokes and irony of the movie. The movie doesn't come off very oppressive however, I found all of the jokes to be extremely reasonable and respectful. Maz Jobrani's performance was fantastic and I think he was the perfect character for the roll.

Overall I really enjoyed the movie.

It's a sort of propaganda movie used for political reasons. This movie reminds of the 70s till 90s' ones which depicted USSR as a demonic country. These kinds of movies represent US foreign policy towards hostile countries such as Iran. A quick summary; Our hero wins a lottery and comes to America with his mother. He wants to be a Private Eye like his idol, Steve McQueen, but is quickly mistaken for a jihadist. Meanwhile, he is hired by a U.S. Senator as a bait for a payoff to an enemy agent for weapons to a foreign country to start a war. Got it so far? Doesn't matter - confusion is part of the fun, so just go with our hero (Maz Jobrani), who is brilliantly funny in a way that Sasha Baron Cohen ("Borat") tries to be. Jobrani, however, succeeds and is funnier. Sound like a good movie? Too bad, it's already gone from the NYC area. It's a stupid way of depicting great civilization through trivial means.

I almost cried watching this movie.

If you like funny movie that make you laugh for a little just watch it.

I really like maz jobrani and his joke are super funny.

This movie is not funny, trying too hard and insulting sometimes. Why make a joke about Jesus painting?

Slightly reminded me of Borat movies,but with more class and no gross acts... Which makes this OK for kids too.

I am not Iranian,but I really enjoyed this movie. I think the fact I have some Iranian friends did help to make this movie funnier as I knew a lot about Iranian families.

The joke about chandeliers was one of them :)

There are a lot of gross and not funny comedies these days and this movie was a breath of fresh air. I wish they will make more! All actors were funny and did a good job playing their roles.

A solid 7/10
