Release Date : Aug 29, 2012 Limited
Mpaa Rating : Unrated Genre Movie :Documentary,Art House & International,Special InterestThis darkly comic, genre-bending piece of gonzo journalism from international provocateur Mads Brügger rips the corroded lid off the global scheme of political corruption and exploitation happening in one of the most dangerous places on the planet: the Central African Republic. Armed with a phalanx of hidden cameras, black-market diplomatic credentials and a bleeding-edge wit, Brügger transforms himself into an outlandish caricature of a European-African consul. As he immerses himself in the life-threatening underworld of nefarious bureaucrats, Brügger encounters blood diamond smuggling, bribery, and even murder -- while somehow managing to crack amazing razor-sharp barbs at every step along the way. -- (C) Drafthouse

Some Trailer For The Ambassador
New Review For Movie The Ambassador
At film's end, you'll probably feel like having a long, hot shower, metaphoric or otherwise, to wash away the mire Brügger has presented.James Adams-Globe and Mail
[Brugger] returns with a jaw-dropping exposé of postcolonial corruption; he's lucky he returned with his head.
J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader
You can imagine how this could have become a 1950s British comedy. It is all real.
Roger Ebert-Chicago Sun-Times
'The Ambassador" is a sociopolitical prankumentary in which the prank blows up in the filmmaker's face, exploding-cigar style.
Ty Burr-Boston Globe
The picture sometimes seems to have been assembled rather than creatively edited.
John Hartl-Seattle Times
A stunning, funny, and vital piece of guerilla cinema.
Kyle Smith-New York Post
A wild, darkly comic slice of nonfiction branded 'performative journalism' by its creator. Ballsy, attention-grabbing and a lot of fun for anyone with an interest in matters geopolitical.
Brent Simon-Shared Darkness
Supposedly nothing is staged. Truthfully, so much of this film is stranger than fiction, it would require pure writing genius to come up with even a third of what transpires.
Brian Holcomb-Kinetofilm
Taken as satire, this isn't particularly funny - but then, the corruption he's exposing is anything but a joke.
Brett Michel-Boston Phoenix
Brügger recalls gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson, who once went undercover with the Hell's Angels. Brügger has similar intentions, and mostly he succeeds. If only he had Thompson's way with words.
Eric Melin-Scene-Stealers.com
Give Brugger points for audacity and for a caustic wit that produces some solid laughs, yet the result isn't quite as eye-opening as perhaps he intended.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com
There's a touch of whimsy to his misadventures, but the malfeasance he uncovers -- often using hidden cameras and microphones -- is anything but a joke.
Shawn Levy-Oregonian
A hilarious, courageous and fascinating trip into the soft underbelly of back market African politics.
Ron Wilkinson-Monsters and Critics
Full of incredulous guffaws at the open and expected corruption in this part of the world. But don't expect to be tickled. This film is making a point.
Witney Seibold-CraveOnline
In a time of intense niche-marketing, particularly of lower budget films, it is quite refreshing to come away from a movie and think, "wait, what the hell did I just see?"
Jordan Hoffman-ScreenCrush
Danish documentarian and full-time provocateur Mads Brügger is either fearless or insane, possibly a combination of both.
Marc Savlov-Austin Chronicle
The closest I've ever seen to a real-life Heart of Darkness, but funnier.
Vincent Mancini-FilmDrunk
Flamboyant Danish journalist-documentarian Mads Brügger takes on a deep, dark and nefarious topic--the harvesting of blood diamonds in the Central African Republic--but within a comic, loopy framework.
Marsha McCreadie-Film Journal International
Deserves serious points for boldness, though not cohesiveness.
Alison Willmore-AV Club
