Hello? Isn't that what I posted as to my experience of this movie?
And NO, I did not see
comedic genius, I saw easy peasy insults to everyone: Bosnia, the US, everyone and OK go ahead
and insult everyone but leave a message. There was no message unless it's all stupid. And I already got
that message.
Sorry, this movie is a bloated effort to promote someone as the next comedian of the decade
and failed to deliver.

No.... I was actually mocking you through the subtle use of sarcasm.
You keep mentioning Bosnia.... this Film was about a guy (supposedly) from Kazakhstan..... and the UK is Nowhere near Russia.... again, It was a mocking sarcasm.
No wonder you didn't "get" this film...

LOL..... why Bosnia?
And It's a comedy.... does it need a message.
I thought some scenes were very revealing personally... especially the anti-semitic comments and how people just kind of opened up to Borat.
I thought the movie was funny, clever and actually quite a good insight into people and their preconceptions and willingness to reveal their prejudice's about others so easily.

Er... if you had a clue.... you'd know that Sacha Baron Cohen has been around for quite a while.... mid-late 90's.
It was not a promotional movie trying to gain him status for the future.... it was a mockumentary that went clearly over your head.
Go and watch American Pie 9 or something.

I didn't mention intellectualism at all.... Humour and comedy is varied and works on many levels... me saying it what over your head and you didn't get it is not a dig at your intelligence, more at your lack of humour.
Also... as you're not replying to my points about your ignorance and your inability to grasp humour, geography and how to have a conversation/debate... then I'll just leave you to it.
Thanks for the 3-4 mines of dialogue... It's been real..
