User Comments: 81 out of 84 people found the following comment useful:- high five..., 5 February 2006 Author: Ryan from los angeles I just had a chance to see this movie last week at a test screening and I must say I think it is the funniest thing I have ever seen on the big screen. I hope the final version includes the racier scenes and the MPAA doesn't pressure them to edit it (but they would surely be included on the DVD release). Basically it is a two hour journey following Borat across the U.S while he meets and greets all sorts of characters along the way. I don't want to give anything away but it manages to capture the hilarity of Borat from Da Ali G Show and hold it for the entire film. I was worried before I saw it because movies have a way of destroying all expectations brought forth from another medium but this film lives up to the challenge. Anyone who is a fan of the show will find themselves on the edge of their seats, trying not to spray urine on those close to them. We ran into Sacha after the screening and he gave us word that the release date was sometime over the summer, nothing specific but definitely something to look forward to.

Carmine Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Didn't the Kazakhstan government kick up a fuss? Why would the US care if they did? Remind me, are there US military bases on Kazakhstani soil? Hmm, some connection perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damon Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 It seems it's directed by Larry Charles who works on Larry David's 'Curb Your Enthusiasm'. I read somewhere that when the film was screened privately for Larry David, he asked for it to be turned off half way through because he was sick of laughing so hard. Sounds like a bit of PR fluff to me, but on the other hand, if Larry David likes it, I'm there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it should be a treat - the only negative reviews I've seen have been from Americans who are being too quick to go on the defensive. Just about to view the trailer, once my PC manages to download it. Oh, I can't find a release date anywhere though, maybe it's me?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
