The Borat Movie

[Guest shibbycath]

I saw it last night and oh my god I've never laughed so hard in a very very very long time. go see it!!

[Rage]

I agree. Hilarious. There are many genuine chocolate faces in it.

[jrhodes]

I'll echo this. Total laugh out loud comedy, I don't know how Sasha Baron Cohen got away with half the stuff he did.

[Tarheels.]

I really, really want to see this but its not playing in my town. I might end up driving to Greenville today or maybe next week when we have school out thursday and friday, because I've heard lots of good things about it.

Saw it a month ago and yeah, absolutely wonderful. It's amazing they could keep it fresh for a feature-length film, but they totally did.

[Timmoru Suzuki]

Saw it yesterday, and its fantastic. Plenty of laugh out loud histerical moments, and half the time I was either wondering HOW he got away with what he just did, or thinking "Oh no...." at the thought of what he was about to do.

Very enjoyable film.

"Running of the Jew" is perhaps the funniest thing I've ever seen in a movie. Such a solid movie.

[Timmoru Suzuki]

I fucking loved that bit. It was one of those "Mustn't laugh.....humour over-powering me..... BWAHAHAHAHA" moments. Fucking great bit.

It was absolutely awesome. I was cringing knowing what was coming so many times, and it's so painfully funny when it does happen........ an absolutely fantastic movie, I'd highly recommend it.

Although make sure the people you're seeing it with don't think that everyone in the film is an actor, because then the film sort of loses its point for them. Sigh.

[Bigal]

Say it today. All kinds of awesome.

How much of the movie was staged anyway? Obviously some parts had to be (Pamela Anderson's "marriage" springs to mind), but was it all?

[Ananas]

I'd say the hooker must have been staged. Obviously the stuff in "Kazakhstan" (actually Romania) was written. Your guess is as good as mine for the rest.

[Timmoru Suzuki]

I'd like to think much of it like the gun shop, the NY Hotel, the rodeo was real, whilst stuff with Pamela and the bear was real, as was the Khazikstan (sp) bookends and the little story at the end when his producer abandons him before they re-unite.

Just how I saw it anyway. Seemed to get a bit more staged as it went on.

I'd say the hooker must have been staged. Obviously the stuff in "Kazakhstan" (actually Romania) was written. Your guess is as good as mine for the rest.

My theory on the hooker is that it wasn't originally staged but they let her in on it afterwards and asked her if she'd like to do the epilogue scene.

That or she's a REALLY good actress, because I never got that vibe from her that she was acting at all (as opposed to, say, Borat or Azamat).

[Robsturgh]

thats was the funniest film I'd ever seen, when he said "wedding sack" I knew what was going to happen, but kept saying to myself..."No...he surely isnt going to..."

AND HE FUCKING DID!

I fucking LOVED it.

[The Z-Man]

Second favorite movie of the year, right behind The Prestige. I love how it was only in 837 theaters and it still beat movies that were released into 3,000 more theaters than it. I know it's only the first day but, still.

[Guest shibbycath]

oh my god when they were throwing money at the roaches and we're screaming "take this take this!" and calling them shape shifters aaaahahahaha.

also my other favourite was the yard sale "who is this woman you shrunk gypsy?" as he picks up a barbie doll! "do not try to shrink me".

the naked 69 fight speaks for itself. wow.

[GoGo Yubari]

On another note, the new title of the boards is AWESOME.

[NobBe Nobbs]

Because clearly Kazakhstan requires all the benefit we can give it.

[ROC]

And holy shit, anyone see the overnight Box Office numbers? $9,050,000, $10,812 per screen average. It's already a runaway smash hit.
