BORAT




This film was a critical and commercial success, despite an initially limited release in "the US and A" (this is the way Borat called USA). Cohen won the 2007 Golden Globe award for Best Actor: Musical or Comedy as Borat while the film was nominated for Best Motion Picture in the same categories. Borat is currently nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay at the 79th Academy Awards.

Borat has been surrounded by controversy before and after its release. It has been criticized for having a prejudiced title character, and some of the film's subjects have criticized and/or sued its creators. It has also been effectively banned in Russia and formally banned in all Arab countries other than Lebanon.

Borat: Cultural Learnings of America to Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan is a long title but suits the plot for the film very well. For me, the film is very hilarious, and I always laugh all over again every time I tell it my friends. However, please notice that it's not recommended for teenagers and children for its sexual content including graphic nudity and language. Beyond the crude humor , I feel sorry for them who are being laughed by Borat's character/the film.

Among other things, it's worthed to watch...
