The film has a hidden message
Jun 02, 2007
MoseKatzer - imdb.com
1. It is important to know, that the film has two different layers. The first layer is the toilet humor that is spitted into the face of the movie-viewer. The film is made in the way, that the typical American doesn't... Full review
An Appalling Masterpiece

The laughter is genuine even when I was appalled at what I was laughing at. Is Sacha Baron Cohen a genius of sorts or the biggest smart ass to hit the screens in a long, very long time? He makes John... Full review

Primitive, stupid, unsophisticated, low budget clownery exploiting the fact that average Americans don't even know where Kazakhstan is. If Sacha Baron Cohen showed black Americans, for example, or Jews washing their face in a toilet or defecating in a plastic bag... Full review

I went to this movie thinking it would be funny, but it was disgusting. it tried to make jokes about different races and sexism but took it way too far. Calling Jews cockroaches and monsters that lay eggs, and making fun... Full review
R for pervasive, strong, crude and sexual content, including graphic nudity, and language. With his wide-eyed, pasted-on grin, thick mustache and loping Groucho Marx gait, Borat is a profane innocent with a will of steel, as earnest as he is devious,... Full review
A Hilarious (and Much Needed) Assault on Decency

brocksilvey - imdb.com
Sacha Baron Cohen comes to America in the guise of Borat Sagdiyev and wreaks his own brand of Kazakhi havoc in this very very funny film. In our age of uber-political correctness, "Borat" comes sweeping through like a brisk and refreshing... Full review
Cruel and exploitative

Æthelred - imdb.com
I have to admit I laughed as much as most other people in the packed theater. Still, immediately afterward I gave "Borat" a 4, because the comedy often was juvenile and tasteless in a way that wasn't funny. (There are plenty... Full review
Horrible waste of time and money!

Take all your expectations about what is crude here in America and quadruple it. Prepare yourself for scenes of naked men wrestling each other into suggestive pornographic positions. In short, the 3 or 4 genuinely funny scenes in this movie aren't... Full review
Borat was a terrible film ...NOT!

Flagrant-Baronessa - imdb.com
Borat proves to be the Python of our generation. I say this as a die-hard Monty Python fan – not because the humour is on the same level or follows the same guidelines (in fact, the common ground is here is... Full review
I literally could not stop laughing.

And I mean the actual definition of "literally." I was lucky enough to catch an advanced screening and I wish I could see it 100 more times. It's hilarious. It's offensive. It's actually pretty smart as well. Sacha Cohen is so... Full review
