Funny story, I went on a first date to this movie. I laughed so hard I was in pain, she didn't laugh once and was clearly upset with it. Needless to say I never called her again.
@@ja37d-34for sure. I couldn’t be with someone who doesn’t appreciate dark dry or dirty humor. If someone is offended especially by Its Always Sunny.. *kick*
@Valthonis I think they forgave him. The people little town of Glod, Romania hates him, though. (His fake home town) They didn't appreciate their portrayal.
Kazakhstan, currently, is a remarkably advancing country. If you look up their cities they're like a blend of Dubai and Taiwan. Before the end of the decade they will become a top tier destination for travelers, expats, investors, technologists...
He actually succeeded in kidnapping her with zero resistance from anyone the first time. The second time no one tried to help her until he accidentally hurt her. Then her fans beat him up.
When I saw this in theatres, everyone was laughing so hard especially during the naked fight scene. I was dying in my seat for like a good 5 minutes, It was an experience I’ll never forget.
I had an aisle seat. I had to get up just to breathe from all the laughter. Only other time that happens to me in theaters was goldmember and 8 crazy nights Edit: of course Bruno as well
@@fanciabuttslam3379 his show on HBO (might of been a different channel) that he did about 6-10 years ago) and Jackass 2 were the only movies as an adult that i can recall cry laughing... watching a reaction just reminded me of those good times
I would like to ask. Why doesn't this movie seem offensive to you? Isn't he ridiculing the state symbols and the people of Kazakhstan? If there was a movie like this about black Americans or some gay trans people or someone else, would you laugh as well? It's kind of hypocritical.
@@amirnurken5747 Excellent question and one definitely worth asking. Looked at in isolation it would have been better to create a fictional nation for Borat to have come from and a strong argument could be made for them not filming that much in Kazakstan but for me it comes down to 3 issues. 1. Strategically if they created a fictional nation all it would take is someone with a globe, atlas or access to the internet and it would all collapse. 2. The primary purpose of Borat was to explore aspects of US society by finding the limits. 3. The final arbiters on if this is offensive should be the national of Kazakhstan and my understanding is that after an initial period of objections, mainly from Kazakh students in the UK and US who thought that those nations were taking the film seriously, it actually brought more attention to Kazakhstan and has become a net positive. To me films of this type serve a purpose by provoking a reaction from individuals which then trickles down to society as a whole and that can burst people’s little insular bubbles.
@@amirnurken5747 Excellent question and worth discussing. Looked at in isolation it would have been better to create a fictional nation for Borat to have come from but that would have been very easy for people to break the character. Ultimately the real target of Borat were the people he was interacting with and the insular bubbles they live in. Besides the real arbiter in this issue is the national of Kazakhstan and after initial objections they realised that the obviously fictional interpretation and increased awareness is a net positive.
borats appearence on the newscast was real, it happened on wapt in jackson mississippi, I saw it live on tv when it happened. the tv crew were NOT in on the joke.
@@christopherlundgren1700 When they did this movie, they were striking while the iron was hot, so to speak - Borat was still very much a minor British cultural thing and relatively new at the time. Also not BBC, but Channel 4, so not really exported or syndicated in the Noughties. Most UK folk were still more obsessed with Ali G as a character, in fact. I really don't think Borat had made it across the pond by then. Perfect timing.
no, I knew nothing of him. several days after this happened the tv station admitted they had been pranked. sasha had to let them know this in order to get the tv station to let them use the fottage in his film. on pamala anderson she was in on the joke but no one in the arena was.@@christopherlundgren1700
@@christopherlundgren1700HBO had already aired two seasons of "Da Ali G Show" (which Borat was a character on) when the Borat film came out but he wasn't a mainstream character (I loved the show so I knew what he was about when the film came out.) That's why Borat could get away with as much as he did in the film. Search for "Borat throw the Jew down the well" and you'll be richly rewarded. (You know the actor who plays Borat is Jewish)
Sasha Baron Cohen's real skill isn't comedy, it's getting people to show you their real thoughts. He presents these characters that are SO obviously fake, and the people who really think the world is like that just go along with it and agree with all his insanity. His Ali G sketches were even better, as he did lots of interview-style bits in that, and some of the things people were happy to say in his presence were incredible.
I like the one where he does Bruno to get frat boys to do "more energy!" intro for his TV show and after like 10 takes of them amping up their excitement he says "Gay TV!" and they all immediately stop and get offended.
I saw this in the movie theater. I've never heard an audience laugh so hard as at the naked fight scene. I have also never seen an audience cringe so much.
Sacha Baron Cohen is jewish, and talks Hebrew in the movie so as an Israeli the jokes were quadrupled for us, especially when some of the "kazakh" dialogue was something diffetent from what was translated. For instance when Azamat putting some nuclear aftershave on Borat's "Khrum", he tells him: "Just wipe it/him, don't jerk it off".
Jen's editor is amazing. She's able to condense the movie, showcase Jen's personality, and still keep the narrative and key points. Her work is a chef's kiss every time.
"I'm so afraid of bears!" So I grew up in Turkey many years ago, and in the capital of Ankara they had a tradition during Ramadan where men would walk through the city with an honest to goodness bear, which they had taught to rear up on its back legs and "dance" whenever they played some music. So every couple of apartment buildings they'd stop, make the bear "dance" for a minute or two, and residents would come out onto their balconies and throw money or chocolates down for him to gather. My father was stationed at the US Air Force base there, and his office fielded a (ridiculously bad) softball team for the base league. Toward the end of another winless season, they hired one of those guys & his bears, and put the bear in at third base for an inning. It couldn't field worth a damn, but it didn't matter because nobody on the opposing team wanted to run past second. 😂
The fact that none of these people in the film get it is pretty telling. That this is how they see foreigners, that they'd be unaware of a elevator and use the toilet to wash.
For the scene of Borat walking down the streets of New York, it was the same scene in Midnight Cowboy with Dustin Hoffman & Jon Voight and the song Everybody's Talkin'. This song reached #6 and won a Grammy Award after the movie release.
Wow.. it's not often i actually lol but this movie, your infectious genuine laughter and secondhand embarrassment had me in stitches 😂😂 10/10 reaction ❤️
Your cackle is adorable!!! "Sleeve of Wizard" --> your look of realization and burst of laughter is balm for my depression 😂. This kind of cringy movie is not my thing, but watching you is a joy!!
I never had any desire to watch this as I thought the humor looked offensive and dumb. But I decided to watch your reaction to it because I knew that even if I didn't like the movie, you would make it enjoyable -- which you certainly did. It was funnier than I anticipated and I might even watch more Borat. Thanks for opening my eyes! 🤗
Smart and beautiful with a great sense of humor! You’re the whole package Jen! Not creeping or simping just been around long enough to know quality when I see it! 🙂💯 Love your channel and hope you keep it up for years to come!
Enjoyed your reaction. When this movie first came out, the folks in the theater watching this with us were literally rolling around in their seats and wiping away tears of laughter. I live in a really diverse community and this gem of a movie had everybody howling. I know others are going to suggest watching the sequel "Subsequent Moviefilm." Cohen had to disguise himself in that movie because he had become so well-known but he and Bulgarian co-star Maria Bakalova pulled it off. Worth watching even if just on your own.
Sacha Baron Cohen is another level of whatever this is. It’s satire, social commentary, farce, improv, character-acting, finding the line and crossing it, risking your safety for your art!! The second one, “subsequent movie film” is also incredible.
Great comment. Yes, Borat really is all those things . Although the sequel has him becoming pretty woke and equality is great but I prefer my Borat sexist and ignorant. Yeah,I also feel bad.
Borat was a side character in the Ali-G show he had. You must se the sequel and Brüno. That one is outrageous its so funny. He also was the "bad guy" in Talladega Nights a great racing comedy with Will Ferrell.
I've seen this movie no short of 100 times and it still makes me cry laughing everytime. The humor is right up my alley and he did such a great job portraying the Borat character
During the Olympics immediately following this, a female gymnast from Kazakhstan won her event and when she got onto the podium, the moronic officials actually played the Borat version of her national anthem. If you check out the clip on RUclips, you can see the shock and horror on her face as she hears a nasty parody of her real anthem. And if you liked this, then Bruno is even funnier. And way riskier.
I was taken to this movie for my birthday by 2 friends. We laughed and loved it so much that the next we took another friend to another showing. He didn't like it but it was just as awesome time the second time around.
After the fun premiere chat we had, I feel I must leave a few words about bears. My experience with Black Bears is they are surprisingly timid, given how incredibly strong they are. But then, I'm not an idiot, so I never provoke them, always give them space, and don't stare them down, which can make them nervous and defensive. The scariest encounter I had was when I was standing quietly on a trail listening for an unseen bird and a pair of frisky bears ran along the trail, oblivious to me. Only when I announced myself did they stop in their tracks. So I interrupted their date, and as the male walked back down the trail, he turned his head and gave me a look, as if to say, "Gee, thanks pal!" But, no revenge was taken by either bear! Of course, grizzlies are much more aggressive and dangerous. I'd love to hear bear stories from Jen's community.
@@kevinlewallen4778 do you get anything like mountain lions where you are? Maybe that'd worry me more than the bears, though again i'd love to see one.
I'm proud that I saw this in theater the first time, Camarillo California with a coworker. There were like 25 people total and we were all laughing pretty hard.
Jen, you MUST, MUST, MUST watch the sequels as well as the Ali G show. Especially ones with Borat and his other Characters. Sasha Baron Cohen is truly brilliant.
Jen, you have to understand the Brilliance of Borat is that through the actions of this character he reveals the mindset and intent of the people that he's talking to. ------ So Bora doesn't have to see what he feels he threw his naivety gets people to tell him their intent and their thoughts. -------- Which is an absolutely brilliant subtext happening in the movie. ------- Nobody's aware of at the time when things are being filmed. -------- That's what takes Borat to level 10 as a legendary piece of script writing and movie concept execution.
Jen's expressions during this reaction were just as funny as the movie 😅. The mixtures of confusion, laughs and cringe were brilliant. I'm guessing Jen was disappointed there were no explosions though.
At a 2012 international Shooting tournament in Kuwait, the Kazakh team won Gold and the organisers accidentally played the Borat Anthem instead of the Kazakh national Anthem
Thank you for another excellent reaction, Jen! Slander laws in America are written as such that you need a specific, intended target, and intent to slander. None of the lawsuits filed against him were successful because he had no way of knowing what anyone was going to say or do when they were on camera. Everyone he interacts with in this movie gave consent to be filmed and/or permission for their likeness to be used. According to legend, whenever anyone being filmed inquired about the precise nature of the documentary they were going to be in, they were somehow "inadvertently" convinced they had nothing to worry about. Not once was it ever actually addressed (at least not on camera). No intent, no misrepresentation, no slander. I have my doubts that some of it wasn't staged (performance of the century if I'm wrong), but it's still amazing. Please watch The Dictator next. Personally, I think it's even funnier.
Jen, the next level, mindblowing part of this movie is to know is that the lead, actor, writer and creator, Sasha Baron Cohen is actually Jewish. --------- He uses this movie to highlight every phobia the world has regarding the Jewish community. --------- He's does this to reveal the feelings non-Jews (including the audience) have toward the Jewish race. BRILLIANT, SIMPLY BRILLIANT.
I watched several reviews of this film by Kazakh bloggers. Kazakhs are generally very nice people and rarely take offense. Their main question is: is this really what they think about our country? Where did these strange stereotypes come from? Although even we, their neighbors, have several "dotted lines" in relation to the Kazakhs. For example: their obsession with meat. They especially like horse meat. And this is a fact. But the Kazakhs are not offended and even joke about it themselves. Although of course Borat's humor is much less harmless.
Always wondered if they decided on a line that they wouldn't cross when making this. Cannot believe they got away with half the stuff they did and no one tried to shoot him. Love the reaction as always Jen!
Great reaction Jen like always, this movie is a serious work of social criticism. But it's also funniest, this is what Andy Kaufman would have lived to do with his Latka Gravas character if he had been able to see where television was really headed in the 21st century. There are some fun-facts about it, During the filming, the police were contacted a whopping 92 times! Along with this, the FBI also started tailing Borat after receiving word of a suspicious middle-eastern man driving around the Midwest in an ice-cream truck., A rather interesting, and somewhat disgusting, fact about Borat's outfit was the fact that the crew never washed the character's clothes. Yes, this even included his underwear. The reason they did this was to ensure that his "smell" was foreign. One can only wonder just how badly Sasha Baron Cohen would've wanted to take a shower after every take. The people of Kazakhstan did not like the inaccurate and goofy portrayal of their country in the film. The movie seems to be insensitive on purpose to convey its larger message. The Kazakh language that Cohen speaks throughout the film is, in fact, not the real Kazakh. What language do they speak in Borat? The language is a combination of Israeli and Hebrew. As a result, the movie was received well in Israel, Most of the scenes in the movie were filmed with the crowds in the background unaware of the context. In a section of the comedy, Borat sings a made-up national anthem of Kazakhstan. He starts the anthem off by showing his support for the war on terror in Iraq, justifying violence and president Bush's regime, which makes most of the whites happy. However, when he sings the Kazakh anthem in the tone of the Star-Spangled Banner, they realise that it was some social experiment and they become infuriated. Much as the movie is entertaining to several people, some countries find it offensive and have banned it. Back in 2006 when it was released, all the Arab countries except Lebanon banned it by censors. The nude photos that he shows the etiquette coach of his teenage son are actually photos of gay porn star Stonie. The producers chose him because they wanted someone who “easily looked 13-14 years old”, but was actually of legal age and willing to do frontal nudity. Keep up the good work.
Anyone want to see the sequel?

Himself, Azamat, Luenell, and Pam Anderson are the ONLY people in the movie in on the bit. Even her security didn’t know.
From what I understand, they had to film the Pam scene twice, because her security didn't do anything on the first take.
Oh god, I could listen to you laugh for hours lol
Woah woah woah, reaction a-very nice from skeeny girl! 😄
I watch way too much Jen Murray, realizing half way through every video I've already watched it. ...very nice, I like
After the fun premiere chat we had, I feel I must leave a few words about bears. My experience with Black Bears is they are surprisingly timid, given how incredibly strong they are. But then, I'm not an idiot, so I never provoke them, always give them space, and don't stare them down, which can make them nervous and defensive. The scariest encounter I had was when I was standing quietly on a trail listening for an unseen bird and a pair of frisky bears ran along the trail, oblivious to me. Only when I announced myself did they stop in their tracks. So I interrupted their date, and as the male walked back down the trail, he turned his head and gave me a look, as if to say, "Gee, thanks pal!" But, no revenge was taken by either bear! Of course, grizzlies are much more aggressive and dangerous. I'd love to hear bear stories from Jen's community.
That would worry me but also fascinate me to see them. Do you carry any defensive weapons, like a knife or spray, just in case?
@@olatron I do have a knife in my pack, never use it. No spray. I believe staying alert and observant is the best defense.
@@olatron In grizzly country, you definitely want bear spray.
@@kevinlewallen4778 Yeah who am I kidding, what would a knife do really anyway. I guess smarts and alertness is the best defence.
@@kevinlewallen4778 do you get anything like mountain lions where you are? Maybe that'd worry me more than the bears, though again i'd love to see one.
I'm proud that I saw this in theater the first time, Camarillo California with a coworker. There were like 25 people total and we were all laughing pretty hard.
One of the funniest movies ever! Your laugh is so adorable makes it that much better!
When he yells at the chicken "Go! Live your life!"
Jen, you MUST, MUST, MUST watch the sequels as well as the Ali G show. Especially ones with Borat and his other Characters.
Sasha Baron Cohen is truly brilliant.
You need to watch the Borat song "Throw the Jew down the well," which is here on RUclips, sung by Borat at a bar.
Jen, you have to understand the Brilliance of Borat is that through the actions of this character he reveals the mindset and intent of the people that he's talking to. ------ So Bora doesn't have to see what he feels he threw his naivety gets people to tell him their intent and their thoughts. -------- Which is an absolutely brilliant subtext happening in the movie. ------- Nobody's aware of at the time when things are being filmed. -------- That's what takes Borat to level 10 as a legendary piece of script writing and movie concept execution.
The original segment in the Ali G Show made fun of British people in the same way
no matter what genre this is, this movie is no. 1
Jenny; world class sense of humor 😅😊
Jen's expressions during this reaction were just as funny as the movie 😅. The mixtures of confusion, laughs and cringe were brilliant. I'm guessing Jen was disappointed there were no explosions though.
YES. THERE IS GRAMPA JEN! AAaaah, all is good in this world.
One of the funniest movies ever. Bruno and The Dictator are also hilarious.
🔔 JEN @ 26:21: FYI That's Oliver Hardy (of the famed Laurel & Hardy comedy team).
You have the most wonderful laugh I have ever heard.
I think you would like Talladegan Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby too.
When I saw it in the theatre I laughed continuously, non-stop for an hour and a half. And still laughed while thinking about the gags after the show.
Welcome, Internet RUclips movie lady. Very nice!
Number 2 went even more insane with he's daughter 😂😂😂😂
I knew you'd giggle like mad at this one 😂
At a 2012 international Shooting tournament in Kuwait, the Kazakh team won Gold and the organisers accidentally played the Borat Anthem instead of the Kazakh national Anthem
"Accidentally"
PLEASE tell me that was true!!
Thank you for another excellent reaction, Jen!
Slander laws in America are written as such that you need a specific, intended target, and intent to slander. None of the lawsuits filed against him were successful because he had no way of knowing what anyone was going to say or do when they were on camera. Everyone he interacts with in this movie gave consent to be filmed and/or permission for their likeness to be used. According to legend, whenever anyone being filmed inquired about the precise nature of the documentary they were going to be in, they were somehow "inadvertently" convinced they had nothing to worry about. Not once was it ever actually addressed (at least not on camera). No intent, no misrepresentation, no slander. I have my doubts that some of it wasn't staged (performance of the century if I'm wrong), but it's still amazing. Please watch The Dictator next. Personally, I think it's even funnier.
about 90% of this film is real. Even the interviews
I'm glad that you enjoyed this, Jen. Maybe check out his other characters such as 'Ali G'.
Check out “Bruno” next. It’s even more over the top and hilarious. Sasha really knows how to push the line 😂
My friends and I still quote this movie to each other randomly without context almost two decades later. Not a great movie but it’s hilarious
Borat 2 is hilarious…also ‘Spinal Tap’ is as good as it gets with a lot of great original music!
This movie is great😂😂😂😂the actual country he pretends to be from got mad at him for this role😂😂😂
I saw this at the cinema and let me tell you, the naked fight on a giant screen is a sight to behold!
@Jen Murray the people are not actors. They’re real people that have no idea he’s acting. Only Pamela Anderson knew.
Sacha Baron Cohen was also in Talladega Nights with Will Ferrell.
Jen, the next level, mindblowing part of this movie is to know is that the lead, actor, writer and creator, Sasha Baron Cohen is actually Jewish. --------- He uses this movie to highlight every phobia the world has regarding the Jewish community. --------- He's does this to reveal the feelings non-Jews (including the audience) have toward the Jewish race.
BRILLIANT, SIMPLY BRILLIANT.
He's a genius
1 million civilians being purposefully starved to death right now in Israel, just in case anyone forgot
@@jimsomers8915Don't believe Hamas propaganda, they have been stating that for 4 months now.
Normally I would say, stay on topic but not this time!@@jimsomers8915
@@jimsomers8915um-hum i think you mean in Palestine
As I recall from various interviews the rodeo was the most dangerous bit of filming, where they were really close to bodily harm.
Haha, even funnier watching this again with you enjoying it at the same time. Very nice! lol
Sacha Barron Cohen is a master at comedy.
Well, is rather unique brand of comedy. 🤣🤣
jen and borat is everything i didn't know. i needed to see 😂
I love how much you loved this. I've showed this to many women and they cannot stand it.
I watched several reviews of this film by Kazakh bloggers. Kazakhs are generally very nice people and rarely take offense. Their main question is: is this really what they think about our country? Where did these strange stereotypes come from? Although even we, their neighbors, have several "dotted lines" in relation to the Kazakhs. For example: their obsession with meat. They especially like horse meat. And this is a fact. But the Kazakhs are not offended and even joke about it themselves. Although of course Borat's humor is much less harmless.

a modern classic Jen. Outrageous tale of silliness and some idiotic fun.
Awesome reaction of my favorite movie!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
The sequel is awesome and his daughter is hilarious
The second Borat is actually even better than the first. He has is daughter with him and she steals the show.
Always wondered if they decided on a line that they wouldn't cross when making this. Cannot believe they got away with half the stuff they did and no one tried to shoot him.
Love the reaction as always Jen!
There were a lot of lawsuits afterwords, plus the producer on the new program had to quit her job after the head of the network refused to trust her.
Great reaction Jen like always, this movie is a serious work of social criticism. But it's also funniest, this is what Andy Kaufman would have lived to do with his Latka Gravas character if he had been able to see where television was really headed in the 21st century. There are some fun-facts about it, During the filming, the police were contacted a whopping 92 times! Along with this, the FBI also started tailing Borat after receiving word of a suspicious middle-eastern man driving around the Midwest in an ice-cream truck., A rather interesting, and somewhat disgusting, fact about Borat's outfit was the fact that the crew never washed the character's clothes. Yes, this even included his underwear. The reason they did this was to ensure that his "smell" was foreign. One can only wonder just how badly Sasha Baron Cohen would've wanted to take a shower after every take. The people of Kazakhstan did not like the inaccurate and goofy portrayal of their country in the film. The movie seems to be insensitive on purpose to convey its larger message. The Kazakh language that Cohen speaks throughout the film is, in fact, not the real Kazakh. What language do they speak in Borat? The language is a combination of Israeli and Hebrew. As a result, the movie was received well in Israel, Most of the scenes in the movie were filmed with the crowds in the background unaware of the context. In a section of the comedy, Borat sings a made-up national anthem of Kazakhstan. He starts the anthem off by showing his support for the war on terror in Iraq, justifying violence and president Bush's regime, which makes most of the whites happy. However, when he sings the Kazakh anthem in the tone of the Star-Spangled Banner, they realise that it was some social experiment and they become infuriated. Much as the movie is entertaining to several people, some countries find it offensive and have banned it. Back in 2006 when it was released, all the Arab countries except Lebanon banned it by censors. The nude photos that he shows the etiquette coach of his teenage son are actually photos of gay porn star Stonie. The producers chose him because they wanted someone who “easily looked 13-14 years old”, but was actually of legal age and willing to do frontal nudity. Keep up the good work.
27:46 lol... Your Hey he did it" set me off. 😂😂
