Jagshamesh!!! I wish i could give this movie a 1,000,000 rating on IMDb. This movie is FUNNY, OFFENSIVE, SATIRICAL, Poignant, ABSURD, & Hilarious!!!! Sacha Baron Cohen of Ali G fame has gone out and made "reality movie". I don't want to give out any spoilers, as I stayed away from them for many months before this epic comedy came out in theaters, but suffice to say you will be SHOCKED by Borat.
At the screening I attended, parents (you idiots) brought their 8-9 year olds to the the flick. This is not a movie for kids, nor is it a movie for those who don't understand satire. Sure, there were a few chuckles during the toilet humor (mostly by the dunderheads who did not really understand Borat) but the real gut-inducing laughter came when Borat did or said something politically insensitive/incorrect. I noticed, the people who did not laugh during these parts, were most probably at the screening due to the all the hype the flick generated pre-release. Sacha thanks them for filling his pockets with $$$$ though.
I'll have to re-watch this comedic gem again (multiple times) because at times the laughter was too much and I could not hear all the subtle jokes by Borat.
The two major highlights of the movie are the wrestling match with Azamat and the dinner with the southern socialite. Get ready to have aching stomachs after those two scenes.
I cannot wait until Sacha Baron Cohen makes the follow up the Borat, Bruno. Another one of his creations, that tests the morality of Americans and their so called democratic and freedom of speech values. I'm certain the Bruno movie will have less toilet humor and the Dunderheads will keep their kids at home.
Only watch this movie if you value intellectual satirical comedy. Otherwise stick with garbage like Wedding Crashers.
ChinKoee!
