Not really about exposing peoples real beliefs. I was on holiday in Hawaii back in 2013, and when at the concierge desk of the hotel I got talking to an American man. He was really nice, and curious of Australia. He said to me that the loved Australia and how it was awesome we don’t allow Muslims in our country, after our Prime minister Kevin Rudd banned them. We had a female pm at the time and we did not ban Muslims. But I just went along with him, he seemed so happy and enthused. And hell, we were both on holiday, I wasn’t there to correct or argue with another bloke on holiday. I just agreed it was great and asked him questions about his holiday and what state he lives in and how life was in general. My point is, some people like myself just act politely to make someone feel understood and comfortable. I dare say many of these people were doing the same. Americans are lovely people, and I found them generally to be welcoming and polite. I wish that bloke I met all the best. Even if he’s a little Islamophobic haha

Im from Kazakhstan, and no, the movie wasnt entirely restricted in here. It was just not allowed to be shown in public cinemas, you can still buy the movie and watch it online. It even aired on a MTV Russia channel. Shortly before Borat's screening on MTV, a representative of the Kazakh Foreign Ministry said, "that the film is a satire on the prejudices that exist in Western countries, primarily in the United States.

But the press secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Kazakhstan expressed the hope that "the distribution companies will show responsibility and will not show this film". Nonetheless, this video is great, and the movie is funny as hell, I really liked it.

The main reason is there isn't another actor like Sacha who is willing to commit himself to a role like this. No one is willing to risk that much especially with how many people want to sue him.

Saw this film in a packed cinema and no one walked out. Everyone was crying with laughter. Sacha is a comedien with massive balls to release chickens in a packed New York subway or eviscerate the American national anthem at a rodeo show in Texas. And the film was a massive box office hit and Oscar nominated. The 2nd Borat film is a classic as well.
Another funny anecdote is that one time when a Kazakhtani female athlete won a tournament at an international sport event (I think it was judo), and during the medals ceremony the organizers played by mistake the fake Kazakhstani anthem from the Borat movie, much to her shock and anger
It was the Arab Shooting Championships in Kuwait in 2012. And the athlete was Maria Dmitrienko, who won the gold medal, so it the mistake was very front and center lol
Maria Dmitrenko after the shock and anger, she take it with a roll in her eyes and a facial expression of "oh those a/&ho1es screw it so bad, LOL" and finally started to laught.
How is that funny? This athlete worked so hard and deserved her moment of pride and glory, instead it was usurped by this crap, forever tainting her achievement because it will always be about that and associated with this stupid incident.
If it's offensive, then it achieved its goal. Life is offensive and it won't get better until it's confronted. Literally the entire reason these things are funny is because they happen so often. You're "offended" because reality makes you uncomfortable. Admitting you have a problem is the first step. In other words, whooooooosh. Continue being part of the problem. You're racist.
Martin Scorsese was such a fan that he interviewed then later worked with Sacha.. So in a way, Borat has that Martin Scorsese stamp of approval. Better than an oscar.
Scorecese is a pretentious hack who does cheap pulp fiction action movies, wannabe Godfather ripoffs, and can never make something as good as Goodfellas again. His only movie that got Oscars BTW, is a mediocre remake of much better Hong Kong's Infernal Affairs.
Borat 2 felt like the end of an era. So indeed there might not be another Borat or Borat type character, truly a one of a kind gem for which I am glad to have witnessed in time.
@@MickyAvStickyHands face reality, it happened and its not gonna change the fact that there won't be another Borat type media or sequel that would even top the original, things have simply changed and this goes for a lot of shows and films, like I would want a modern day rendition of Monty Python but even I would know that it just wouldn't land in todays audience and a lot of things would change since expressing certain jokes have now become a landmine that every comedian at some point would have to traverse carefully or risk career suic1de. Heck if Joji stayed as filthy frank he would be very miserable to the point he would end up worse than where Idubbz is now today, you just gotta move on and hope for the next best thing.
@@traphimawari7760 Joji still acknowledges Filthy Frank at least to the extent where he will praise people for showing up to his shows as Pink Guy. I agree though, at some point he either would have been banned from the internet or become iDubbz. Because people are too sensitive
@@AngryDad. Myth or not or whatever these snowflakes are called they are real and they affect media a whole lot and you can guarantee your a55 when something isn't good is it's because creators are pandering to this specific audience.
Ali G interviewing Beckham and his stick-woman is one of the true greats of now classic British TV. They were both so cool and played along which made the whole thing just epic.
I’m still surprised that the reactions are real and not paid actors, and that Sacha did not get murdered while filming this. Thank you Sacha for risking your life for this movie, it’s my favorite comedy movie and you made me very happy.
I absolutely adore how Borat’s daughter actually speaks Bulgarian and she speaks absolute rubbish, compared to the translated subtitle. Another layer to the satire: all foreigners are the same!
@@oligultonn He also speaks in Polish several times throughout the movie, too. Lmfao. I've been studying Polish and recently discovered that and nearly died laughing as I realized how many layers deep this movie actually goes.
I’m from Kazakhstan, Almaty’s city and few years ago moved to California. I love that movie, love the character and I believe the Borat film made way more for the worldwide recognition of Kazakhstan than any Kazakh official😀
also from what the video is saying Kazakhstan is also leaning into the Borat bit, which is a good move. It shows strength of (political) Character. "We don't take ourselves too seriously". I hope the movie was unbanned there. It is pretty clear that this is satire, and this movie says a lot more about americans than it says about kazakhs
This is very well written and composed. Seriously amazing job! -I kept trying to creatively use a quote without sounding forced and douchey... i got nothin-
I knew a bunch of Qazakh immigrants in the US and they thought Borat was hilarious because it really reflected what americans thought of the country they came from (any country I don't know about must be a crap hole), and of course they were in on that part of the joke.
@@sayuas4293 I did. They moved to the US because they can make way more money doing construction labor. They make enough to live in the US on a lower middle class lifestyle and send money back to their family who get to live a middle middle class lifestyle in kazakhstan. They never dissed the US, or had any unreal glorification of their home country, they just related to how the average american thought their country was some no mans land of unschooled idiots whose houses are made out of old tires and corrugated tin scraps.
Thats so true. Im from Chile and ive heard really outrageous stories about people in US and Canada believing we live in huts and dont have electricity or running water. I had a clasmate who used to live in canada as a kid and told us the other kids asked if we had to used horses to move around and stuff 😂
@@SanchoPanza-m8mit can be spelled either way from cyrillic translation, but the Q is common in terms like "Q-pop" for pop music from the country (taken after the "k-pop" term for korean pop). Its not a woke thing, snowflake.
Sacha Cohen is a great artist. I recognized him with the Dictator, him criticizing the stereotypes of the American society is really brave. That scene where he talks about his country's features but relating to America's politicians' problems in an undertone was really a masterpiece for me.
"Let's visit a poor village in Romania and turn their entire existence into punchline of a joke for our Western audience to laugh at." truly revolutionary
Nothing exactly innovative about taking the piss out of other people. Also that quote is so reductive, art doesn't have a single purpose, some art is made to comfort the disturbed and the comfortable, some art is made to disturb the comfortable and the disturbed. Sacha Baron Cohen isn't a true artist for putting on a shitty accent and making fun of people, Louis Theroux has done just as much of the beneficial 'exposing' in a much more dignified way.
@@bluuralive418yeah but he is not half as funny as SBC, i was in tears the first time I saw Borat when he was showing pics of him and a kid in which one or both were nude 🍺
As a romanian yes it is true 😢. They payed every villager a sume of 15 lei per person. In 2008 it was like 1,5 euro, today it would be like 3 euros. So yes, the level mockery was outrageous, that is why the people of Glod village hates Borat.
@adryannthedefender701 reportably some of the villages were paid as much as $100 USD and the film company donated $5000 to the village and gave them computer and general productivity supplies after filming
@@ultimate9056That was in direct reaction to the uproar. The movie company threw a few thousand at the town in response. The vast, vast majority of the towns people received bread crumbs.
The way I feel about Borat is simple the first time I watched it, it was for comedy ever time since then I've watched it with as a critic POV while laughing I still get the perception of how real it is. The main takeaway from movies like this is that "casting" real people will always be much riskier but the outcome will always be extremely different and unexpected therefore although the writers and the directors might shine in some parts the true heart of the movie is always going to be the protagonist in this case being Sasha Baran Cohen.
As a 15 year old from Kazakhstan I can confirm that everyone in my country and my family hate him so much that a company made toilet paper and put his head on the paper made millions of dollars
Sure@@k-doggy1762, I did too. But I also remember a 98% capacity cinema laughing hysterically. Why are the people who "walked out of a movie" ever worth talking about?
I am actually from Kazakhstan. I never saw the film but I think the whole thing about it is kinda funny. But the one thing that kinda sucks is how well... not everyone sees what Kazakstan is actually like after seeing the film. So it sucks a bit knowing that this is the first thing that's associated with the country. There is also a kinda stupid accident that happened once. Kazakhstan's team won a sport's event somewhere, but instead of our actual hymn... borat's version played. the thing is though, Kazakhstan might not be the slum that borat depicts it as, but the spciety is still stuck in traditional ways in many areas it really shouldn't. Though the progress will some,I know.
"Society is still stuck in traditional ways"? How about, "Kazahkstan is a dictatorship that only stayed in power because Putin's Russia sent in its military"? I don't like to be harsh but your comment was like a Nazi German saying, "We made a couple mistakes". Yeah, no shit. Anyways, here's to freedom & democracy everywhere. We have to fight for it. It's not free. But don't use violence because it gives the dictators an excuse to be more brutal. See Prof. Gene Sharp's 'Albert Einstein Institution' on how to overthrow dictatorships with peaceful means.
This anthem thing isn't because of Borat per se but foreigners being confused about post-Soviet countries in general, INCLUDING rUSSIA, which gave up and returned the USSR anthem. when Bayul won Olympics they couldn't find anthem of Ukraine and then much more recently anthem of Belarus was replaced with something else making the medalist stand down from podium.
Man i saw borat in movie theaters with my dad and everyone was laughing their asses off! Truly was so sore in my abs and face from laughing and smiling so much
My Grandpa actually thought it was hilarious and its not the humor he would usually laugh at. He fought in WWII and said it reminded him of the ridiculous USSR propaganda films that came out after the war.
I feel like these movies are the perfect example of why offensive content has genuine value. Even if it pushes the wrong boundaries it's still valuable that it tries anyways because it gets people frantically scrambling to respond. And that is valuable because it inevitably makes people think critically about what _they_ think in order to properly criticize it. I haven't really watched either movie but from the many details I heard, this really is the kind of movie that needs to come out once or twice a decade just for the sake of causing a bit of chaos on release.
"ONLY a Jew would have been able to get Borat made" - true, because his kind considers itself human and thinks that others are not human.@@barackobama9343
People massively underestimate his acting skills. Honestly one of the best actors I've seen so far. pay attention to how he talks in private, very intellectual and charming. you'd think he was a c*a agent in Hollywood. to press political issues. Supposedly there should be something like that.
I don’t think he’s a one trick pony. I think he’s a hypocrite. He’s out now lecturing people on racism and how it’s bad. Like we haven’t seen all he’s done in his career.
@@MJW238you mean a Jewish guy playing a man from the Caucus region who hates Jews is racist? He played Bruno too, I’m guessing you’d call him a homophobe, also. He makes fun of stereotypes. You’re just easily offended.
Sacha Baron Cohen is the equivalent to Beethoven - People only associated Beethoven with Wellington's Victory when he visited Paris as they only associate SBC with Borat.
I think those kind of people are the scariest ever, its like joker saying "you wont understand the joke". I remember eric andre wanting to finish his last season with him shooting himself in the head live and that was it, not because he wanted to kill himself but because he wanted to impact people with his "art" and i think cohen is gonna do something insane like that
This was such a legendary movie, I can imagine the FBI people laughing their assess off while knowing what the fuss is about after receiving so many complaints 😂
I'm Romanian and i always wondered why they were talking Romanian in Kazachstan, now i know 🤣🤣🤣 Also, i am from Braşov, which is about 50 to 100 km from Glod!
Not really. 2000's had a lot of great movies that shared the limelight. Superbad, Napoleon Dynamite, Dude Where's My Car, just to name a few. You just had to be there to remember I guess
@@mobsiesixsixsix9785 your terrible extrapolation doesn't mean my implication, pothead. I'm sorry you didn't like those films, but they were insanely popular on release, and I know it burns you that you were never popular
I've never laughed so hard in a cinema before in my life than the time I watched Borat. I went in having absolutely no idea about the character or anything. I was under a rock, it blew my mind. I came out with a gut and head ache from laughter.
@YourLocalPatriot yes, I agree, our country is only in 9th place in terms of territory, and we don't have many atomic bombs that were left from the Soviet Union, but we are in first place in selling uranium, look soon, it will be interesting)
@YourLocalPatriot nah, you are just too dumb to know anything about kz, kz is most relevant country in central asia, 9th biggest country in the world with great and long history
I've been roleplaying as a character that's based on Borat and It's been some of the most fun and weirdest time in gaming for me. The best part is getting a reaction out of people but at the same time you can tell that there are some really uneducated people out there.
I watched this video last night and so I decided to watch the film afterwards. With so much praise, I wonder if I saw the same movie as y'all. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but the praise for this movie seems to be from Cohen uncovering the prejudice that many people hold (for jews, foreigners, women, etc.). So what I saw was actually a lot of kindness and tolerance by the people unknowingly involved in the movie. The driving instructor dude said consent from women was good and chastised him for drinking and yelling at people. The lady teaching him etiquette was very patient and the other lady even said she liked him a lot and thought he could integrate into American culture. The bed and breakfast couple were absolutely lovely and kind, showing a lot of generosity and curiosity for Borat and Azamat. Dude at the car dealership kind of just seemed like he was doing his job, going along with the weird sht Borat was saying. In fact, I think a lot of the people were just trying to do their jobs. There were only a couple of scenes with people who clearly held some upsetting views, including the older gentleman at the rodeo who suggested Borat shave his mustache, and the drunk college dudes. To paraphrase what Christopher Hitchens said in his review on Slate, the joke was on Cohen. He made himself look like an idiot, not so much the other way around.
This video convinced me to watch the entire two borat movies. My favourite part was when he somehow aquires a bear and the pulls up to a park in an icecream truck with a bear in the back and the kids all run up thinking they are going to get icecream and then it is just an angry caged bear that makes them all run away screaming XD aahhaahahhahahaaa How did they even manage to get a bear for this movie XD ahahahahahahaaa. also great video! :]
Not as good as the first one but there's definitely still many laugh out loud moments. Similar to The Dictator, often in Sasha's work, there's a brilliant idea and a dozen or two absolutely epic scenes but it can be hard to fill out 1.5 to 2 hours of movie with what would ideally be a 3 minutes repeating sketch on SNL. I'm never getting tired of watching the helicopter ride from The Dictator though,, it's just so damn good. Even after having watched the scene 20+ times, I still find myself with a huge grin on my face.
The actor, Sasha, has become a person that old Borat would have targeted for satire. He has become the people he made fun of. This is why there will never be another movie like Borat.
Borat was a comedic play on the approach that Louis Theroux used in his 90’s series about America. If you haven’t seen it, it’s well worth watching. As it is, SBC is a comedic genius and this insight into him is very well presented. Good work.

And the film was a massive box office hit and Oscar nominated. The 2nd Borat film is a classic as well.
proves my point, stupid people like this guy!
literally massive balls
Watching him get booed while butchering the anthem was one of those great moments that got seared into my brain.
@@Fenizrael Classic!
I also saw the movie in a full cinema, I was so close to pass out because I laughed so much. Everyone had a good time lol.
Borat was the best social experiment to date and Sacha deserves a very unique award.
“Borat” is the *GTA* of Movies”
GTA is not controversial at all
it might be crazy im about to say@@damian_11_
Real
Did you ever play a gta game@damian_11_
@@Brokenenglishspeaker Yes. It includes content intended for adults, like many other games and movies do. That does not make it controversial
The "hotel chase scene" from Borat is to me the absolutely most legendary in cinema's history.
I remember when I watched that scene for the first time with one of my friends and I literally couldn’t breathe from laughing
When I saw it in the theater people were losing their minds during this part
it was repulsive
I'll never forget the first time I watched Borat. My friends and I were in literal tears for the entire movie.
I still haven't laughed that hard ever. It was surreal.
@@J.B.1982 And I thought the whole time how all the random people actors could be so damn authentic ... oh well
6:06 - "they were unhappy that they were depicted as barbaric people"
"And some were so angry that they wanted to kill Borat"
Ironic.
After they're going to swarm to him like flies and there will not even be a skeleton left 😆
Another funny anecdote is that one time when a Kazakhtani female athlete won a tournament at an international sport event (I think it was judo), and during the medals ceremony the organizers played by mistake the fake Kazakhstani anthem from the Borat movie, much to her shock and anger
It was the Arab Shooting Championships in Kuwait in 2012. And the athlete was Maria Dmitrienko, who won the gold medal, so it the mistake was very front and center lol
Maria Dmitrenko after the shock and anger, she take it with a roll in her eyes and a facial expression of "oh those a/&ho1es screw it so bad, LOL" and finally started to laught.
How is that funny? This athlete worked so hard and deserved her moment of pride and glory, instead it was usurped by this crap, forever tainting her achievement because it will always be about that and associated with this stupid incident.
That's just offensive. No comment.
If it's offensive, then it achieved its goal.
Life is offensive and it won't get better until it's confronted. Literally the entire reason these things are funny is because they happen so often. You're "offended" because reality makes you uncomfortable. Admitting you have a problem is the first step.
In other words, whooooooosh. Continue being part of the problem. You're racist.
Martin Scorsese was such a fan that he interviewed then later worked with Sacha..
So in a way, Borat has that Martin Scorsese stamp of approval. Better than an oscar.
This is cinema.
Ja. Das ist Kino.
so in a way, for scorsese, borat > marvel movies

Borat 2 felt like the end of an era. So indeed there might not be another Borat or Borat type character, truly a one of a kind gem for which I am glad to have witnessed in time.

I absolutely adore how Borat’s daughter actually speaks Bulgarian and she speaks absolute rubbish, compared to the translated subtitle. Another layer to the satire: all foreigners are the same!
shoutout to Bulgaria, beautiful country
And Borat speaks to Azamat in Hebrew and Azamat responds in Armenian.
@@oligultonn He also speaks in Polish several times throughout the movie, too. Lmfao. I've been studying Polish and recently discovered that and nearly died laughing as I realized how many layers deep this movie actually goes.
He's calling a tortoise a dog...he's a souls player 😂
actually the reason we call tortoise a dog in souls games is because of borat who did it in 2006, DS came out in 2011
This was very well put together, thank you so much.
I’m from Kazakhstan, Almaty’s city and few years ago moved to California.
I love that movie, love the character and I believe the Borat film made way more for the worldwide recognition of Kazakhstan than any Kazakh official😀

also from what the video is saying Kazakhstan is also leaning into the Borat bit, which is a good move. It shows strength of (political) Character. "We don't take ourselves too seriously".

I knew a bunch of Qazakh immigrants in the US and they thought Borat was hilarious because it really reflected what americans thought of the country they came from (any country I don't know about must be a crap hole), and of course they were in on that part of the joke.
Ask them why they moved to the US
@@sayuas4293 I did. They moved to the US because they can make way more money doing construction labor. They make enough to live in the US on a lower middle class lifestyle and send money back to their family who get to live a middle middle class lifestyle in kazakhstan. They never dissed the US, or had any unreal glorification of their home country, they just related to how the average american thought their country was some no mans land of unschooled idiots whose houses are made out of old tires and corrugated tin scraps.
Thats so true. Im from Chile and ive heard really outrageous stories about people in US and Canada believing we live in huts and dont have electricity or running water.

Nothing made me laugh more than Borat, Sacha Baron Cohen is a one of a kind, a true genius.
The dictator was funnier in my memory
He’s a hypocrite - he’s out now lecturing people on racism.
@@MJW238 you obviously didnt watched that video dude
@@tpsam It was hilarious, but Borat still #1 for me
Also a Zionist
Sacha Cohen is a great artist. I recognized him with the Dictator, him criticizing the stereotypes of the American society is really brave. That scene where he talks about his country's features but relating to America's politicians' problems in an undertone was really a masterpiece for me.
I read somewhere that "art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable" Sacha Baron Cohen is a true artist🙌🏻🙌🏻
"Let's visit a poor village in Romania and turn their entire existence into punchline of a joke for our Western audience to laugh at." truly revolutionary
Nothing exactly innovative about taking the piss out of other people. Also that quote is so reductive, art doesn't have a single purpose, some art is made to comfort the disturbed and the comfortable, some art is made to disturb the comfortable and the disturbed. Sacha Baron Cohen isn't a true artist for putting on a shitty accent and making fun of people, Louis Theroux has done just as much of the beneficial 'exposing' in a much more dignified way.

I watched Borat with my very reserved grandpa, I told him he might not like it, but i was wrong, we had such a good time.
He played also in in "SPY" (Netflix), a dead serious role ... probably one of his best acts.
It feels more like a documentary. I think that's what makes it so unique.
The part with the villagers made me feel like I was watching a deleted scene. He even pranked the extras
As a romanian yes it is true 😢. They payed every villager a sume of 15 lei per person. In 2008 it was like 1,5 euro, today it would be like 3 euros. So yes, the level mockery was outrageous, that is why the people of Glod village hates Borat.
@adryannthedefender701 reportably some of the villages were paid as much as $100 USD and the film company donated $5000 to the village and gave them computer and general productivity supplies after filming
Oh my G(l)od, I felt the same!

@@ultimate9056That was in direct reaction to the uproar. The movie company threw a few thousand at the town in response. The vast, vast majority of the towns people received bread crumbs.
The way I feel about Borat is simple the first time I watched it, it was for comedy ever time since then I've watched it with as a critic POV while laughing I still get the perception of how real it is. The main takeaway from movies like this is that "casting" real people will always be much riskier but the outcome will always be extremely different and unexpected therefore although the writers and the directors might shine in some parts the true heart of the movie is always going to be the protagonist in this case being Sasha Baran Cohen.
As a 15 year old from Kazakhstan I can confirm that everyone in my country and my family hate him so much that a company made toilet paper and put his head on the paper made millions of dollars

I remember watching in in a full theatre and everyone absolutely losing their shit, best moment I ever had watching a movie
I witnessed a couple of people leaving the cinema
Sure@@k-doggy1762, I did too. But I also remember a 98% capacity cinema laughing hysterically. Why are the people who "walked out of a movie" ever worth talking about?
@@k-doggy1762I can see it's not for everyone.
But they're wrong.
I was traveling and watched Borat at a theatre located in Salem VA which is where the Rodeo scenes were filmed...everybody laughed their asses off.
I went to watch it with a group of my college buddies and it'll stick with me forever. Never laughed so much in my life.
I am actually from Kazakhstan. I never saw the film but I think the whole thing about it is kinda funny.
But the one thing that kinda sucks is how well... not everyone sees what Kazakstan is actually like after seeing the film. So it sucks a bit knowing that this is the first thing that's associated with the country.
There is also a kinda stupid accident that happened once. Kazakhstan's team won a sport's event somewhere, but instead of our actual hymn... borat's version played.
the thing is though, Kazakhstan might not be the slum that borat depicts it as, but the spciety is still stuck in traditional ways in many areas it really shouldn't. Though the progress will some,I know.
"Society is still stuck in traditional ways"? How about, "Kazahkstan is a dictatorship that only stayed in power because Putin's Russia sent in its military"? I don't like to be harsh but your comment was like a Nazi German saying, "We made a couple mistakes". Yeah, no shit. Anyways, here's to freedom & democracy everywhere. We have to fight for it. It's not free. But don't use violence because it gives the dictators an excuse to be more brutal. See Prof. Gene Sharp's 'Albert Einstein Institution' on how to overthrow dictatorships with peaceful means.
Great success! On a serious note: friends have visited Kazakhstan and they were impressed!
This anthem thing isn't because of Borat per se but foreigners being confused about post-Soviet countries in general, INCLUDING rUSSIA, which gave up and returned the USSR anthem. when Bayul won Olympics they couldn't find anthem of Ukraine and then much more recently anthem of Belarus was replaced with something else making the medalist stand down from podium.

I feel like these movies are the perfect example of why offensive content has genuine value. Even if it pushes the wrong boundaries it's still valuable that it tries anyways because it gets people frantically scrambling to respond. And that is valuable because it inevitably makes people think critically about what _they_ think in order to properly criticize it.

I watched this video last night and so I decided to watch the film afterwards. With so much praise, I wonder if I saw the same movie as y'all. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but the praise for this movie seems to be from Cohen uncovering the prejudice that many people hold (for jews, foreigners, women, etc.). So what I saw was actually a lot of kindness and tolerance by the people unknowingly involved in the movie. The driving instructor dude said consent from women was good and chastised him for drinking and yelling at people. The lady teaching him etiquette was very patient and the other lady even said she liked him a lot and thought he could integrate into American culture. The bed and breakfast couple were absolutely lovely and kind, showing a lot of generosity and curiosity for Borat and Azamat. Dude at the car dealership kind of just seemed like he was doing his job, going along with the weird sht Borat was saying. In fact, I think a lot of the people were just trying to do their jobs. There were only a couple of scenes with people who clearly held some upsetting views, including the older gentleman at the rodeo who suggested Borat shave his mustache, and the drunk college dudes. To paraphrase what Christopher Hitchens said in his review on Slate, the joke was on Cohen. He made himself look like an idiot, not so much the other way around.
0:25 WHAT? wow that changes everything haha

this is my favourite movie of all time and i didnt know there is a second film? thanks for telling, off to watch it
Not as good as the first one but there's definitely still many laugh out loud moments. Similar to The Dictator, often in Sasha's work, there's a brilliant idea and a dozen or two absolutely epic scenes but it can be hard to fill out 1.5 to 2 hours of movie with what would ideally be a 3 minutes repeating sketch on SNL. I'm never getting tired of watching the helicopter ride from The Dictator though,, it's just so damn good. Even after having watched the scene 20+ times, I still find myself with a huge grin on my face.
My two film star heroes...Sasha & Jim ..So beautiful what he said to Sasha there toward the end. Brought a tear to my eyes, it was so genuine.
That "Retard" joke was my favorite Borat joke
Anyways I love Cohen trying to expose the supremacy and politician issue in the West
Every time I hear an old person say "I am retired", I think of that joke, and I really want to say it.
"Er ist wieder da" is similar - but touching on a way more delicate topic.
Time to rewatched Borat it’s been too long
The actor, Sasha, has become a person that old Borat would have targeted for satire. He has become the people he made fun of. This is why there will never be another movie like Borat.
at least not one with Sacha Baron Cohen. I could see someone like Sam Hyde doing something like this
Borat was a comedic play on the approach that Louis Theroux used in his 90’s series about America. If you haven’t seen it, it’s well worth watching.
As it is, SBC is a comedic genius and this insight into him is very well presented. Good work.
are you referring to TV Nation?? i loved that show!
ONLY a Jew would have been able to get Borat made... for the same reason ONLY Wierd Al could have a career covering popular music... NEPOTISM!!!
