    Saw this in July at Comic-Con -> spent the 2 hours with tears in my eyes from laughter. It's out this week so I'd thoroughly recommend it!

    I almost sicked-up laughing at his comment "now we let women travel on inside of bus!"

    Check out YouTube for his recent appearance on the Conan O'Brien show.

    Twas very funny. Lots of hysterical laughter in the cinema. Occasional lulls, but enough consistent laughs to be recommended.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,393 ✭✭✭✭Vegeta


    yup its probably the first film i've seen this year that i'd tell someone to go and see

    Borat's film was by far the best film I have seen from the last few years...from the start it was brilliant...so many small funny bits - the hen - that come together and make it hilarious...the end was a small bit of an anticlimax but still it was a great great film..."I like you, you like me?"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,129 ✭✭✭Nightwish


    I've never laughed so much at a movie. Its so so funny. It sold out in the local cinema last night, and going by the amount of laughter there, I can safely assume it went down a storm. I cant recommend it enough.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,404 ✭✭✭qwertplaywert


    was going to go this evening but 2 peeps i was going with pulled out and i dont wanna go on my own

    will go with other peeps tomorrow or sunday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,375 ✭✭✭DoesNotCompute


    Been waiting for this movie for the last few months, gonna go see it tomorrow in Cineworld, should be a good laugh..

    I heard it's only like 80 mins long or something? :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32 EoinDM


    Two of my friends went to see it yesterday and they said it was excellent, but I have yet to see it. I'm gonna check it out soon. It got some great reviews.

    :cool:

    Yeah very very funny, packed cinema laughing the whole way through. The last half hour was probably a little too weak to award it five stars though...
    But best dinner party scene since the texas chainsaw massacre :)

    "Get out of this house! Why, did the retard escape?"

    One of the funniest bits was when he was in the Jews house, and he had the hand hatchet in one hand and his money in the other haha so funny, throwing money at the roaches too!

    question:[ive never seen it]is the uk and/or us tv show[borat] any good?

    lol

    They are really good...a lot of the same sort of stuff...the shows themselves are the actual documentaries though where the film sort of goes away from that...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,404 ✭✭✭qwertplaywert


    so basically its he same material presented in a new way?[the film]?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 136 ✭✭StarryBud


    It's new material, though there are many jokes repeated. The whole 'Borat's village' joke at the beginning was already done in 'Borat's Television Programme', available at all good Bit-torrent outlets. This film is definitely worth seeing though.

    You should buy the 'Ali G in the USAiii DVD' - it's probably the most consistently funny collection of Cohen stuff available AND it includes Bruno. Buy now.

    i hate the alli g character

    Damn that was funny. Last half-hour did have its lulls, but...damn that was funny.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,625 ✭✭✭✭BaZmO*

    Yeah, that's what I did. Couldn't be ársed waiting around for mates to go and I wanted to see it before I heard too many of the jokes so I just went after work on Friday. Glad I did. Absolutely hilarious stuff..

    I'd love to know how they get the people to sign the release forms. Or do they need to get people to sign releases? And I'd love to know how they actually film the scenes without people getting suspicious.

    Highly recommended.

    Answers my question about how they get them to sign the release form.

    Bleedin gobsh1tes though. What did they expect? "Yeah, we don't mind making fools of ourselves if the footage is only gonna been shown on some dodgy Eastern European TV network, but not in the States"

    The thing they don't realise is that they're making a bigger deal out of it by suing them. If they were that embarrassed about it they should've just said that it was all scripted.
