Borat is, at times, ridiculously funny. There are some lulls in the action, some things that make the viewer very uncomfortable, and some things that are just plain wrong (e.g. male nude wrestling), but all in all the movie is a wonderful distraction from everyday life. I'm sure you all know the premise: Borat is a Khazikstani journalist sent to the U.S. to bring back the American way of life for his people. In the process, he gets a restraining order from Pamela Anderson, learns to dress from some homeys, nearly gets lynched for singing the wrong anthem at a rodeo, and shows off his package at every instance possible. If you've seen the television show, then you'll know Borat is a bit hard on the Jews. And women. Well, he manages to piss off most uptight people, regardless of gender or religious view, so I guess I don't need to point that out. Just be warned: he doesn't pull punches, so if you're easily offended by something - anything at all - you may wish to reconsider viewing this film. If you're not uptight and stuck on yourself, this film is great fun. It's refreshing to be able to laugh at things you're not normally allowed to laugh at in this overly PC touchy-feely-fest we call a country. Borat may take things a little far, but that's half the fun, wondering if he's going to cross some invisible line into extreme bad taste (most of the movie is in moderate bad taste). Highly recommended!Read full review
For me who lives in Russia Borat is a true American face. His parody on parody on parody is in the best traditions of Monty Python movies.All is fake. And Borat showed up all this fake.Sorry for my bad english :)
