Fact : Borat was very good but way over rated
 

Their PR team did a great fucking job.

Agreed, at least I got to see it with a sexy beast

it was pretty good...not as good as I expected it, but the naked scene was probably the funniest scene ever....

It's the over-hype that has put me off slightly.

I will eventually go see it though...

it wasnt as good because they released footage from the film before it came out...thats what sucked :(

still haven't seen it, but i find him hilarious.

i agree. it was also a bit too fake. the show at least has real footage, this seemed very staged, ex: pamela scene, bear, etc.

overall it's still a good movie, but way less than what i expected as a big alig/borat fan.

Fact: You have never created a thread with "fact" in the title that actually contained a fact.

There was some real footage. For instance, both the drunk frat guys and the driving instructor have filed lawsuits for their scenes being put in the movie.

They did sign releases, but the driving instructor said they told him it was for a documentary, and the frat guys are complaining that they signed the release when they were drunk.

I made a fact thread about this last year...

And I just owned your statement : http://www.gofuckyourself.com/showthread.php?t=671610

borat is one of those people you cant just watch and like it instantly, i think if i watched the movie i wouldnt think it was as funny if i didnt watch every skit on the ali g show years beforehand.

I'll wait for the DVD with the bonus features (deleted scenes, etc). Borat doesn't strike me as must see big screen entertainment.

nahh I laughed my ass off.

I also laughed my ass off, so it must've been good. :) I can't wait for the DVD to come out.

Borat was VERY over rated... Some was too nasty/blatant, some just wasn't that funny, some was genius.

I have been a big fan since Ali G started as a 5 minute section on a half hour comedy show. I liked his Borat character too and I think a selection of his Borat's guide to England would have been funnier. It wasn't quite so nasty in nailing its targets and none was set up.

:2 cents:

I thought it was pretty darn funny myself. Easily one of the funniest movies this year.

It was a great movie. Borat aint overrated, he's simply good. :pimp

Borat was a funny movie.

One scene I did not like was of the Jewish innkeepers. It wasn't funny, especially as Borat sought to demonize people who were being nice to him. I am not Jewish, but I just didn't think it was funny.

And, yes, the movie was over-rated.

There were some very funny scenes, as funny as I have ever seen, but overall it was a B movie.

It was a set up and the set up scenes were generally the least funny. Like the gypsy/yard sale.

I know the joke is that he is Jewish too... but didn't get me laughing.

you know, borat, in real life is Jewish and very religious

a funny and hilarious movie
