Unique and hilarious comedy

Rating: Null/10 (15 May 2018)

Borat is a surprisingly hilarious comedy that uses a unique concept paired with crude and offensive humour to make fun of racism, sexism and bigotry in general. It combines documentary-style filmmaking with scripted scenes to tell a short, but entertaining story with some very memorable moments and quotes. Sacha Baron Cohen is probably the biggest reason this movie works so well, due to his commitment to the character and the ability to make one of the most racist and just horrible people in film history so likeable. There were some scenes that were kind of unpleasant to watch, but the rest of the movie was very funny and made me laugh out loud almost constantly. It's nice!
8/10
