![]() ![]() While I enjoyed most of the American adventure, I did not like how poor Kazakhstan was 'torn to shreds'. I think what the film tries to remind us is that people should lighten up and not take everything too seriously. The Borat-Luenell track is among the sweetest moments. The humour is crude, explicit, disgusting and even brutal at times but there are a number of sequences that had me laughing out loud such as Borat's experience with the 'gypsy', the feminist group, the well-meaning Jewish couple, the bear. But, Borat's interaction is conducted with a sense of comedy. The film balances its portrayal of Americans quite well: There are the kind hearted who treat Borat with kindness (The Jewish Couple), there are those who threaten to use violence when he attempts to hug them (The New Yorkers), those who look down upon him (The Texans), those who in a split second turn against him (the rednecks). ![]() ![]() The title character's take on pretty much every sensitive issue such as Judaism, homosexuality, feminism, prostitution, racism, fanaticism and ignorance. 'Borat' is both a comical and offensive movie that tackles the 'American' way of thinking with a touch of humour.
