Learning the US&A Culture

Rating: 9/10 (13 January 2008)

The second best reporter of Kazakhstan, Borat Sagdiyev (Sacha Baron Cohen), and his producer Azamat Bagatov (Ken Davitian) are sent by the Ministry of Culture of his country to New York, to prepare a documentary about "The American Way of Life". Once in the Apple City, Borat sees an episode of "Baywatch" and falls in love for Pamela Anderson. He lures his producer and convinces him to travel to California to achieve better interviews. Along his road trip, Borat has good and bad experiences with the North American people.
"Borat" is one of the funniest and most hilarious comedies I have ever seen. The original story has many low level and politically incorrect jokes, and may be unpleasant for intellectuals, Jews and people from Kazakhstan, not necessarily in this order. I saw the trailer of this film and immediately watched the DVD, and I laughed so much that I started coughing and need to have a break. I have just included this film in my IMDb profile as one of my favorites ever. If you open-minded and enjoy jokes, most of them offensive to conservative people and some minorities, you will love this film; otherwise, why spending your time? Just to write bad reviews? My vote is nine.
Title (Brazil): "Borat"
