This weekend, I took my girlfriend to see this mock documentary. It stars British actor Sascha Baron Cohen as Kazakh reporter Borat Sagdiyev, who along with his trusty producer Azamat, are commissioned by the Kazakh Ministry of Information to interview various people in the, as Borat describes is, the "US and A".
The entire audience laughed through just about the whole movie. This film will doubtlessly offend folks that are thin-skinned or politically correct, but will delight the rest.
Borat encounters one outrageous adventure after the other as he learns street slang from black gang members, gets drunk with college fraternity guys, goes on a date with a prostitute, pisses off an entire arena full of rednecks at a rodeo, proclaims that he's going to California to meet/marry his beloved Pamela Anderson, and "speaks in tongues" with evangelical Pentecostals, among others.
This is absolutely one of the funniest and most offensive movies ever made.
Yagshemash!
This guy is insane. I don't know how much of the movie was staged (probably not much, from what I've read), but he could've been killed for some of the things he did, like the rodeo scene ...
The movie is offensive, disgusting in some places (the fight with his producer) but above all - hysterically funny ...
P.S. Sasha Baron Cohen speaks a pretty good Hebrew for someone who wasn't born in Israel, I was able to understand all of what he said in "Kazakh"
