I laughed. A lot.

Rating: 9/10 (10 November 2006)

Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan is quite the riot.
This movie has a beautifully simple concept behind it: Borat Sagdiyev, played by Sacha Baron Cohen, is a researcher from Kazakhstan who is to go to America and learn the ways of Americans to "make benefit glorious nation of Kazahstan" accompanied by his producer Azamat. During his coast to coast journey for research, we see the cultural differences of Borat and the American public which create all too funny situations that had me in stitches for a majority of the film.
It seems that most of this film was semi-thought out. The situation Borat put himself in seemed to be predetermined, but the way he went about it definitely did not seemed scripted. Even with this sort of quasi-thought out movie and plot, Cohen delivers with a hay-maker each and every scene. Some are shockingly wild, some are full of racism, some are just downright absurd; but not once does Cohen fail to deliver. This is probably one of the funniest movies I have ever seen, and the hardest I have laughed in a theater since Wedding Crashers.
All in all, I gave this movie a 9 out of 10. Well worth your few bucks to have an immense laugh hour and a half laugh-fest.
