    It could do without..

    it could use some censorship, such as leaving out the wrestling scene or any other nudity and less curse words and it could be pg-13

    halarious!!!

    omg...funniest movie ever! but, i wouldn't recommend it for children--it's basically a sex parody (but a funny one). nor would i recommend it if you're easily offended or an unthight prick. good laugh though.

    Funny, but not for all tastes...

    The constant sexual humor put me kinda off, especially one scene later in the film which was rather explicit. But I still see it as a legendary comedy, and will consider seeing more of Cohen's entertainment in the future.

    Very Crude!

    This movie is very sexual,violent(comic), and it also has language throughout the whole movie. There is also a part where it shows two nude men attack each other for laughs and it is funny but not for kids.

    Side splitting

    The funniest movie ive ever seen. People who dont find this film hilarious have a lack of sense of humour. Sacha Cohen Boran is an absolute genius....Best film made this year hands down....BRILLIANT.

    Funniest movie I have seen in year!

    Definately not for ANY kids! But if you enjoy scathing satire and are hard to offend, I highly recommend seeing this movie. It is very difficult to find a comedy that is consistently funny these days. I literally began laughing from the moment this movie started until it ended. I was actually grateful for parts that were simply mildly ammusing, as it gave my cheeks a chance to recover. Saw this with my 74 year old father and I think he thought it was even funnier than I did.

    Very funny, but lost it's consistancey towards the end

    couldn't stop laughing all the way through. Definatly one of my favourite comedies that I've seen in a long time. Certainly this is a social,political and comeic genunis no doubt about it. And considering half the people who he interviewed believed that he was making a genuine documentary, it makes one of the best comedies I've seen this year. Once you watch it, you begin to realise just how stupid Americans really are and how the film is taking the mick out of America and, at times, American People. The Jewish joke was one thing that i didn't get and the scene with the femisnists wasnt funny at all. Perhaps towards the end it lost it's comic effect. The film is incredibly offensive at times and rude. I found myself hiding behind a pillow in disguist, but laughing at the same time. So, if you're easily offended, stay away from this! Overall a hilarious comedy which I recomend everyone should see.

    Definetly not for your 13 year old

    After much discussion with our 13 and 15 year olds, we decided to take them to see Borat. After all, they watched this comedian on TV, so how bad could it be…It could be plenty bad. There were topics and scenes that I did not want my 13 year old to see. Personally, I did not find any humor in the way many of the American's were portrayed. In fact, I found, in this time of global hostility, it quite embarrassing. Save your $10.50 (in LA); it’s not worth the time or effort.

    I was expecting less gross out humor

    I appreciated the skewering of just about every group possible, but some of this was just gross..the naked guys wrestling....

    You need to have the right perspective to enjoy

    Look people, the movie is hilarious, but you need to have the right perspective when you watch it. I can see how people are offended and how parents don't want their kids to watch it, but their reasons (i.e., it is racist, sexist, crude) would only be legitimate if these shortcomings were portrayed positively. However, Borat's painfully comical anti-semitism and homophobia and sexism merely show how ridiculous and unfounded these kinds of prejudices are. This is exactly what makes the movie so terribly funny. I think that as long as you're comfortable with some mature themes, you'll love this movie.

    Hilarious for teens!

    This is my new favorite movie. It is the funniest film i have ever seen. Seriously. Everybody said it's crude and vulgar and racist, so don't watch it if you're easily offended! You should have known that it will be very offensive when you decided to watch it. Really, people... The only inapropriate parts where when there are pictures of Borat's son's penis. That was gross. Also, there are naked men wrestling. But there is a black bar over one of them, and the other has rolls of fat covering his genitals. Oh, and they say the f-word a lot. WATCH THiS MOVIE IT'S FUNNY!

    great movie, as usual, not for kids

    i really enjoyed this movie a lot. it was one of the most funny movies i have seen in a long time, but definetly not intended for any children whatsoever. as funny as it was, it was at some times gross, but not nessicerilly creepy gross like "Epic Movie". This movie also refers to/makes fun of certain nationalities and races for example "the running of the jew", "vanilla/chocolate face", making fun of christians, muslims, etc. if you are mature enough to watch this movie, you will laugh your @$$ off, but make sure you are ready.:]]

    This movie is hilarious, unfortunately its not for kids...

    I loved it and even though I'm too young to watch it, I had to endure the gross private parts and the repetative swearing. I think the bear roaring at children isn't violent. My favorite part was when Borat asks the guy if that tortoise is a "Cat in a hat" and he thought it was a dog. That's when he buys the bear. Its funny but not suitable for children...

    I laugned!!!

    I thought that Borat what HILARIOUS! Sometimes though, it was just too much! It went overboard quite a bit. When you watch Borat, you know some things are grossly exagerated. Some things in this movie are shocking, like the Americans reactions to Borat but unfortunately that is not exagerated at all... People are really like that! Just for that alone, i think Borat is a good thing to watch because it shows us who much our society can be so closed to other cultures.

    I could feel myself getting dumber by the second

    At the time of seeing this movie, I was 14 and watched it purely to be in on the jokes between my friends about the movie. Let me tell you - It wasn't worth it. Although I love SNL and Dane Cook, there is just some "Stupid" comedy that I can't stand (ie: Nacho Libre) I must say that I found this movie more uncomfortable than funny. All I can say is that 1/2 of people are gonna love it, and 1/2 are gonna hate it. As a teen, you just have to know yourself well enough to juge which 1/2 you are in and if you are even mature enough for it.

    Very funny movie

    This is a very funny movie. The language is a bit on the strong side and there is quite a bit of sex talk. The only nudity in this movie is male; I didn't see any female nudity when I watched it. A lot of the jokes made in this movie are anti-jewish and it can be offencive to some people. All in all this is a very funny movie and i think that it is ok for teens as long as they know it is just a joke.
