By God I Hate This Movie

Rating: 4/10 (9 March 2007)

This hateful movie is called a satire.It seems to blame the Jews for every problem on earth.Strangely enough-so does President Ahmedinejad of Iran-blame the Jews for every single problem on earth.Sasha Cohen's "satire"is equal to Ahmedinejad's "valid Islamic truth". I challenge any adult to view the abject barbarism practiced by Islamis in Iraq and then laugh about the "cute" Jew-hatred exhibited in this film.Islamis butcher Islamis in Iraq. They -The Iraqis-call this religious freedom.Electric drills to the head are not my idea of freedom. Borat freely discusses his hatred of Jews and gypsies and the viewer goes along with his European/American travelogue.Hahaha. Sasha Cohen-the satirist-is laughing right along with us-at his "brilliance".He,Borat, becomes a sad and quote-lovable-unquote fish out of water.I am busting a gut over here.Sasha Cohen presents a complex movie,and I salute his intention.Ultimately- I hate Sasha Cohen.That said,this is a pretty good travel movie.A partially hateful fraud.Perhaps an acceptable documentary.It ultimately fails-although it is a valiant attempt at street-theater, with Cohen's inspired attempt to portray Borat's eastern European "friendliness" on the streets and subways of urban, and paranoid New York City.
