Borat

Ok I need opinions. I'm a bit 2-sided on the whole idea of Borat. I find it hilarious how he breaks down the american culture just by acting like someone from the middle east. Western people are afraid to offend him because of his culture! Yes he is racist, although being a jew himself, he is clearly just winding them up. I think the whole idea's brilliant but he did cross over the line a few times.

But I have loved him for years. The guy who plays him has 3 different characters who get to people in the same way. I suggest watching the Ali G Show!

 

I like his Ali G character better. Borat is funny but I think it's too much of the same.

 

Borat is kinda like an Central Asian version of Archie Bunker.

 

I know what he was trying to expose and he could have done the same kinda thing within many parts of society when he sung the "Jew down the well song" but it was catchy at the same time.

 

Cool.

 

I just saw it. I guess some parts were funny, but it seemed like it relied too heavily on shock value.

 

i loved that movie. it was really good. sacha baron cohen is just great.

omg i think i need to watch it again it was just so hilarious. i love a movie that makes you giggle at our own ignorance and prejudice/[.

 

I am Jewish as well, and the movie really didn't offend me. It was over the top and I was able to realize that he wasn't making fun of Jews but those who hate Jews. I thought it was rather funny.

 

borat is ahilarious movie! sacha baron cohen is hilarious.
