This searing brand of humor has never felt more essential. Blending activism with entertainment, Baron Cohen’s best movie to date gives us new reasons to be afraid of the world, but also permission to laugh at it. Read full review

Want a blast of fun to ease your pandemic blues? No worries. Borat is back in a sequel that can't recapture the cathartic shock of the first but still shows Sacha Baron Cohen as a razor-sharp satirist who knows how to make us laugh till it hurts. Read full review

All of this is familiar but still surprisingly effective, and it’s highlighted by Baron Cohen’s onscreen partner Maria Bakalova, who ends up providing some of this mockumentary’s finest moments. Read full review

Sacha Baron Cohen remains a fearless and funny comedic force, and Maria Bakalova is hilarious and endearing as Tutar. We also get a clever twist ending and I’ll say no more than that. Borat is an idiot, but “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm” ends on a pretty smart note. Read full review

Borat 2 may not hit quite as many shocking comic highs as the first Borat, but it probably coheres more as a film — ironic, given that it appears to have been written, produced, and edited in record time, during a global crisis — and it also manages to walk a fine line between offense and revelation.

Yet for all the gags that fall flat and scenes that don’t quite play, there are enough that fuse shock humor and sly moral commentary to combust in your face. Read full review

The easiest (but incomplete) answer is that the George W. Bush era needed a Borat, and the Trump years make him painfully redundant. Read full review

Scathing look into the Americana culture. Disgusting in parts but grounded in truth.

This movie is so funny and real, Sacha has big balls to go against the elite like that.

Movie that expands a lot to what the first movie gave. We have a much more profund and structured fictional narration, where we see not only a main goal (like Pamela Anderson in the first movie), but also a really good characterization of both Borat and Turar.
There's a deep understanding ofMovie that expands a lot to what the first movie gave. We have a much more profund and structured fictional narration, where we see not only a main goal (like Pamela Anderson in the first movie), but also a really good characterization of both Borat and Turar.
There's a deep understanding of simple quest writing, expanding on the simple "stages" narration that the first Borat had. It has a valid focused narration, centripetal, that helps the story to develope more on Borat character himself and separate documentary section to fiction sections.
There's a bigger variety regarding documentary scenes and sketches, wich are not only indipendent from themselves, but they help developing the main storyline. The documentary part and the fiction are simbiotic to themselves.

What's new is that it is not vague as the first one, since weird social and political events are becoming more and more prevalent in today's world. It is not a study anymore, Borat is living in a whole global crisis and everything can be said and shown without looking for too much strange situations. It is a fresher take on the original Borat, taking the same formula, expanding more on secondary characters, a bit less in cheaper and gross comedy, a bit more in spicy-edgy political humor. This doesn't mean that there are no funny and demential scenes, but even those revolve around a main plot which is always good.… Expand

Was Okay some funny bits and obviously some offensive bits but I think everyone knows what there getting with these films. I think if you are easily offended then I would recommend you don't watch this. Obviously everything in this film is 100% accurate and factual correct, High Fives.

The first movie is a cult classic, but the sequel is nothing more than a forced, unfunny anti-republican propaganda flick.

Borat was a great movie. This one is not.
The rehearsed dialogs on this film cannot compete with the freshness of the first film. I am not American however I cannot understand how a comedic film was transformed in political propaganda.

I thought this film was stupid and parts disgusting, like the Kazak fertility dance. Prepare yourself to be grossed out over the latter. I was. Spend the hour and a half watching just about anything else instead. You'll be doing yourself a favor.
