I find him to be hilarious because of the darkness of the humor. He's taking society and exposing the absolute weaknesses and faults. It's disturbing how easily he's able to do it, but it's more disturbing at just how much of it exists. Sasha Baron Cohen reminds me of Baz Luhrmen in his movie style... he creates this world, these characters so out of this world that for a moment you're all "WTF?!?!?!" and then he does something so over the top you've either gotta get on board with what he's doing or you tune out... but if you stay for the ride you're very likely to learn something about yourself or the world around you by the end of the movie.
