About How people reacted to Borat...

Rating: 9/10 (6 October 2007)

My comments aren't going to be about the movie itself but rather about how it offended so many people. Personally i thought the movie was hilarious and I will certainly see it again. I think the reason so many objected to this film was probably because it hit too close to home. Much in the same way someone that doesn't believe in evolution would consider such a theory completely garbage. Another thing i find interesting is that around 7,000 IMDb members gave this film a rating from 1 to 3 (with 4800+ giving it a a lowest possible rating of 1) So that means about 10% percent of everyone that voted on Borat (7000 out of 71,000) hated it but 482 out of 1040 (around half) of the people that hated it bothered to comment on it.
The film is not for the masses. Because the masses are exactly the people that Borat is lampooning. Good Job Borat !
