Borat is yucky

Rating: 2/10 (3 December 2006)

From reading reviews, I thought this was a definite must-see so went to catch it in the theater. Luckily, we had free passes and didn't have to waste money on this yucky film. It pretends to make a political statement but instead panders to the lowest common denominator of movie goers by relying on cheap laughs at the expense of others and crude humor. I'm difficult to offend and often push the envelope myself but I was just grossed out by a morbidly obese man literally shoving his backside and genitals into Borat's face. It really isn't funny at all, and now I am left with this image. I did chuckle a few times but in general was uncomfortable watching these poor people have to deal with a complete jackanapes. I will be telling my friends to forget Borat if they haven't seen it yet. The thing that really disturbed me about going to this movie was a group of 4 children in the audience in front of us (probably about 8-10 years old maybe younger). I'm not sure if the responsible adults accompanying them were their parents, but if they were...WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? unbelievable! this movie is just gross.
