Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (2006)

I'd like to thank the powers that be for letting me join this judgement review circle. I tend to yammer, so I'll try to keep my reviews succinct, just like the title of the first movie review that I'm gonna dish out. Right here. Right now.

I'll assume that everyone knows who Borat is and what he generally does. As for the movie, it is a mockumentary that gives a more unified goal for the purpose of borat's interviews. He does a lot of the same stuff that he does in Da Ali G Show. Jokes about Jews, women, minorities and the absurdity of all Americans in general kept me highly amused. And if you aren't easily offended, I'm sure you will enjoy the movie too. The pacing gets slow at times, and to understand where I'm coming from (and as a reference to any of my future movie reviews), I judge pacing and overall boringness by the number of times I look at my watch during the movie. I looked at my watch once. I'm sure people who share my sense of humor (dry, sarcastic, caustic, and witty humor at the expense of others) then you will enjoy this movie.

However I will say, there is a disturbing scene that may truly offend virgin eyes and create some awkwardness. For that reason, I don't recommend any young people watch this with their parents. It's sort of like watching Basic Instinct in the same room with your parents. Awkward... Trust me, I know. I still think I need to see a shrnk because of it.
