  Ali G Indahouse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ali G Indahouse: The Movie is a 2002 movie directed by Mark Mylod starring the fictional character Ali G, performed by the British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen.
Ali G is the leader of Da West Staines Massiv, a fictional gang composed of a group of middle class kids from Staines (a small town to the west of London); their chief rivals are Da East Staines Massiv.
After he goes on a hunger strike and is spotted chained to some railings by the nefarious Chancellor David Carlton (played by Charles Dance), he is drawn into a world of seedy political intrigue, as the Chancellor tries to use Ali as a tool to destroy the Prime Minister's credibility.

 Ali G - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The West End premiere of Ali G Indahouse was met with anti-racist demonstrators protesting outside.
He is a gang member of the "West Staines Massiv", and lives with his grandmother in a semi-detatched house at 36 Cherry Blossom Close, in the heart of the "Staines Ghetto".
Staines is a middle-class town to the west of London that has been the butt of jokes for many years, and it is demographically very distant from the American inner city ghetto that Ali G makes it out to be; still, he believes himself to exemplify gangsta and wigger culture.

 The Cohen brother - smh.com.au
He lives in Staines, on the west side (a crucial geographical distinction, cognate with living in the dangerous-but-hip purlieus of South Central LA).
Staines is in Middlesex, but Ali thinks it is located in "Barkshire" ("Barkshire is riddled by a turfwar dat has cost many lives over de years").
Ali is obsessed with gangsta culture, its expensive paraphernalia and its glorification in rap lyrics and lifestyles: the flash jewellery, the guns, the coats, the "bitches" and "hos", the posse of homeboys with whom one chills out, the protocol of drive-by shootings.

 Film: Ali G Indahouse   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Here he is elected to Westminster in a combination of two well-worn storylines ­ the plucky hero fighting to save his community (in this case a Staines leisure centre), and the Machiavellian manipulator backing a hapless stooge to sabotage a rival, only to find his evil plot backfires.
Indeed, whenever the self-appointed leader of the West Staines Massiv steps out of the action to provide a commentary, things do pick up.
And Ali's schoolboy sense of mischief also provides a rich vein: his posse lynch a couple of guards, for example, with a playground cry of 'bundle', and a speech he writes for the Chancellor is littered with joyfully childish insults - very much in the style of Newman and Baddiel's History Today.

In the summer all the local youth of Staines seem to congregate on agreat piece of land called Silvery Sands which is right next to the river.
A favourite spot used to be the fountains inside the Elmsleigh Centre (since removed, presumably due to being too pleasant on the eyes, and therefore not in keeping with the rest of this god-forsaken nest of proles).
Staines highstreet appears to be the hookup spot for the 'rude boys' of staines.

 The Dartmouth Online   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The overarching joke of the program was that society, especially when on camera, would excuse ridiculous behavior from minorities, foreigners, gays and teenagers because of its condescendingly low expectations for these groups.
Through a consciously- contrived plot mechanism, Ali is forced to run for Staines' seat in the titular House of Commons by a corrupt party official promising to save the center.
The party is shocked when their nominee actually wins, having made his opponent admit to a bestiality incident during the debates.

 Sacha Baron Cohen, Ali G
Controversy: Sacha Baron Cohen is not fl himself, but because he portrays a character who purports misogyny, he has been accused by some of racism and of ridiculing fl street culture.
Ali G's behaviour and clothing also parodies the UK junglist subculture of drum and bass listeners, which has many similarities to hip-hop culture.
Fictional background: He is a gang member of the "West Staines Massiv", and lives with his grandmother in a bungalow at 36 Cherry Blossom Close, in the heart of the "Staines Ghetto".

 BBC News | REVIEWS | Ali G keeps it real
The real masterstroke with Ali G In Da House is that for the first time we are given the chance to see the self-proclaimed leader of the "West Staines Massiv" in his natural habitat, with a fair proportion of the movie actually set and filmed there.
All of which only serves to further highlight the character's ludicrous behaviour - his attempts to start and maintain gangland rivalry in reserved suburbia not only give the film some of its funniest moments but also lend Ali an air of reality which he has never had before.
The town also features heavily in the film's plot, which sees our hero becoming MP for Staines after a stunt to save his local leisure centre is spotted by the Chancellor (Charles Dance).

Staines is in Middlesex, but Ali thinks it is located in "Barkshire" ("Barkshire is riddled by a turf war dat has cost many lives over de years").
He mimics the style of LA tough guys by inventing brotherhood hand signals for the "Inner Ipswich Massiv" and "East Portsmouth Crew", and casually invents street soundbites: "Boyakasha!", "Keep it real", "Checkit", "Aiiiii".

He is, in short, a Walter Mitty figure, desperate to prove his manliness, his wisdom, his worthiness of "respek", his sexual magnetism.

Let's hope America's urban fl communities will appreciate the joke and not leave his immaculate fur coat (with gold chain accessories) riddled with bullets from a Saturday-night Desert Eagle.

Ali G (Sacha Baron Cohen's irony-filled, semi-reverent swipe at British West-Indian musical stereotypes), steps out in his first big screen adventure.
Ali G, leading light of the West Staines Massiv, runs a course in a local community centre for local surburban kids keen to emulate his (deluded) gangster dope-ness.
When the centre is threatened with closure by budget cuts Ali is persuaded to run for the job of local MP, bringing him to the attention of scheming Deputy Prime Minister (Charles Dance), who is keen to somehow discredit the Prime Minister (Michael Gambon) through association with a loose cannon like Ali.
