Any fifteen year old should be able to handle this funny, clever, brutally relevant film. Easily in the top 10 of the decade.
I can honestly say that almost every parent who reviewed this movie is an idiot. Yes it is offensive. Yes it is over-the-top. But stupid? Racist? If you thought this film was racist, then the whole point of it obviously went completely over your head. Sacha Baron Cohen is not a racist, but is just pretending to be in order to make people play along, exposing their deep and hidden prejudice. The jokes are funny and completely on target, the acting is amazing(Sacha never breaks character even once), and the statement it makes is more relevant than any after school speacial or film with morals these days. In short-the raw truth hurts. It's brutal. And some people can't handle it. But if you want to truly have a mirror held up to our American selves, then I reacommend you watch this movie immediately. hopefully you will take something away from it. If not-at least you will be entertained.
This movie does a very raunchy job of talking about ever horrible social injustice there is. There is bad comedic treatment and discussion of antisemitism, incest, rape, prostitution & mental retardation.
I made the mistake of taking my 16 year old nephew to this movie and we walked out after 15 minutes. It was just to over the top and not fit for children or adults.
Who would ever think making a movie like this would be funny??? Its crude, racist and vulgar! No one should ever go near this movie!!! Im ashamed of anyone who thinks this is funny
