I must be missing something because this is the only Sacha Baron Cohen movie(that I've watched) that I didn't like; Wouldn't Recommend

Overall: I honestly don't understand the appeal for this movie. People say its good because he's interacting with real people and filming genuine reactions. Cool concept but it makes it hard to enjoy when it SEEMS that its all setup. I'm not saying it is but during my experience of the movie I just constantly felt like it was set up and running off a complete script with little to no improv. That being said, even If I convince myself that it was completely genuine, I just don't find anything here that funny. Some scenes were enjoyable and good satire but the majority of it was stupid and just bland for me. The acting was fine and I imagine some people would like it but I can definitely see that it's not for me.
The types of people who will like this movie will be fans of the improvisation style of comedy and those who can buy Sacha's character.
Wouldn't Recommend.

Sacha Baron Cohen was good as Borat and I can definitely believe his character but maybe not his actions. Kevin Davitan was alright as Azamat.
The premise was solid but the execution was pretty flawed for me. The story was really weak and didn't make sense.
The cinematography was pretty weak and it was hard to see what was going on.
Borat's costumes were alright and I can see the stereotypical odd foreign person concept they were going for which was clever.
I rarely laughed in this movie and, while I can assume they were genuine, the 'pranking the unsuspecting public' idea didn't feel genuine.
Personally, I really didn't enjoy this movie and was thoroughly bored throughout.
4/10
