offensive but even more hilarious

Rating: 8/10 (7 November 2006)

No doubt many people will find this movie offensive, however I believe that most folks will find that this film's comedy value outshines those issues. My own take was about % 20 offensive and % 80 hilarious. I was most impressed by the wild, hi-stakes hi-jinks Borat engages in, seemingly without warning or pre-planning. In general I oppose humor at the expense of specific groups, however I feel that most of this movie's humor drew upon American culture. I found many of the depictions of American culture familiar but some were a bit surprising. It's not surprising that the folks at the rodeo supports America's 'War of Terror'. Those Frat boys in the movie will probably never get married.
