"Unique but not great"

Rating: 9/10 (10 November 2006)

Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for make benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.
Obviously from the title you can understand that this is a completely unusual comedy. Unusual is good; most of the times.
Sacha Baron Cohen brings the vivid and accidentally offensive character Borat Sagdiyev to life, in this offbeat documentary/comedy.
Ironically, Cohen cleverly makes fun of the United States more that he does make fun of Kazakhstan. It is a journey through America's suburbs and the psychological responses of the people to an unusual figure.
"Occasionally funny. Not a masterpiece of comedy, nonetheless an enjoyable experience"
"Cohen is a credible comedian with his own style. Borat is an example of his unusual style"
"You will seat for 90 minutes, sometimes you may laugh a lot, others you wont and some times may feel slightly irritated. A modest film, not a bad one though"
