DVD Synopsis

Master of disguise Sacha Baron Cohen hits the road to explore America as the crude Kazakstani reporter Borat in a feature mockumentary that brings one of the Da Ali G Show star's most popular characters to life on the big screen. Sent by the Kazakh Ministry of Information to gain a better understanding of American culture and bring his findings back home, Borat and faithful producer Azamat (Ken Davitian) set their sights in New York City. When the citizens and interview subjects of the Big Apple seem less than receptive to Borat's distinctively unrestrained approach and the curious Kazakh television personality stumbles across an episode of Baywatch while channel-surfing in his hotel room, he becomes instantly smitten with screen siren Pamela Anderson. Now confident that the only way to discover the true essence of America is to travel to California and make the bikini-clad beauty his bride, Borat purchases a ramshackle ice-cream truck in which he and Azamat will make their way across the Great Plains and on to the sunny West Coast -- all the while coming into contact with a wide variety of "typical" Americans. Within this loose, scripted framework, Borat engages in his usual misbehavior with unsuspecting strangers, from accidentally releasing a chicken from his suitcase on a New York subway ride to a formal interview with Alan Keyes. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

It was hilarious, but a bit over the top with male nudity and sexual references.

If you haven't heard of Borat by now - what rock have you been living under? This is done as a mockumentary of a reporter from Kazakhstan coming to American to learn our culture, etc. It is irreverant, politically incorrect, quite crude at times and even sacriligious. All that being said, put on your Depends before you start to watch it because you'll laugh so hard you'll wet yourself. Definitely NOT for kids!

Borat is well-produced and consistent throughout. It follows Borat, a journalist from Kazakhstan as he travels through the US. Originally he was supposed to film only in New York, but when he hears his wife has died, he goes on a quest to California to meet Pamela Anderson.

Personally, I couldn't handle the low humor. Lots of crude jokes, sexist remarks, blatant ignorance, etc. It was too much for me. However, my husband thought it was OK. It was like a tremendously long, drawn out skit from The Daily Show or The Man Show from comedy central. If that's your thing, you'll enjoy the movie.

Note: The case and disc in the set have been deliberately produced to look like a bootleg. The label on the case looks like a cheap color photocopy, and the disc itself is almost blank with what appears to be a handwritten name. However, if you look closer, you can tell the real from the fake. The barcode on the case is absolutely clear, even though the rest is fuzzy. The disc is brand "Demorez" with slogan "Is real? No. Demorez." and the disc has a copyright with the studio name included. The name that appears to be handwritten on the disc is actually screen-printed like all discs.

So be careful before you reject the DVD--it's made to look fake!
