You'll Love it! or you'll hate it! or you'll be someone kind of in between...

I've heard a million times that this movie was offensive.
I've heard a million times that it cannot be offensive because Baron Cohen himself is Jewish.
Well I thought this movie had offensive material, but was downright hilarious. Cohen does a masterful job in this character, to the point no one recognizes him as anything but. His situations do not offend, but they do point out flaws and prejudices in our society. An obvious fact in the men from the rodeo stating "we're trying to get that (kill gays) done here too!" Borat is hilarious if you take it for what it is, and go in with an open mind. I cannot remember the last time I laughed so hard at a theater. Maybe when my sister made me see From Justin to Kelly. But maybe not even that.
Go. See. Laugh. Buy. Laugh more. Watch Special Features. Laugh More.
