Not what I expected

Rating: 3/10 (18 December 2006)

This movie was 90 minutes of Sasha Cohen being crude and offensive and coming up with all sorts of humorous sexual terms. Normally, I am entertained by this kind of humor and, yes, some of it was very funny,especially early in the movie. As the movie wound down disappointingly, I failed to see the humorous slant on American culture that I expected. Anyone who did must have one fine imagination. Please explain what the hotel room scene was satirizing. Having a limited knowledge of the movie before watching it, I was never sure what scenes were staged and what scenes were real people unaware of what was happening. In the end, I am not sure that it mattered. Though I got some good laughs, for the first time I can ever recall, I felt a little ashamed afterward for having sat through something so stupid as Borat. Check the IMDb voting demographics and you will see that it is the younger crowd that has driven its rating up.
