Borat is still in theaters, and yet right now I have a DVD-quality copy. God bless the internet...

Anonymous said...: is this supposed to be any good? I've heard conflicting things, as many good as bad, what do you think?; 8:28 PM
Andrew said...: It's good...try not to go into it expecting the best thing you've ever seen (people were calling it one of the funniest films ever made, and it's funny, but not quite THAT funny). Most of the humor comes from the fact that Sacha Baron Cohen is using his character to show other people's faults. To be honest, while it is funny, most of the time it's simply a real eye-opener to how stupid and bigoted people in America can be.; 8:36 PM
