I'm seemingly in the minority, I really don't like this movie

Rating: 2/10 (18 November 2006)

Sasha Cohen pretends to be a reporter visiting America and makes fun of people in the process.
I understand the humor. I get the jokes. I just don't find them funny. Yes I'm in that seemingly small group of people who don't find Borat funny, or even particularly clever. No, I'm not a fan of Ali G, one of Cohen's other characters and who's show was the source of the Borat character. Forgive me the jokes aren't all that clever, it seems his jokes are low rent Monty Python malapropisms or jokes so stupid I doubt most cut rate vaudevillians wouldn't have touched them.
Am I bothered by Cohen using these seemingly innocent as foils? partly because they were set up to look stupid and didn't fall into their own trap, then again my feelings are mitigated by the fact I can't believe that no one caught on (of course if they did we wouldn't see that). I am bothered by his "I'm so much cleverer than you attitude that pervades the film. Clearly he's amused by the joke he's telling which is all that matters.
I sat there stone faced for 80 minutes.
