Borat Subsequent Moviefilm (2020) Movie Thread

[Bandit]

I haven't liked any of his movies so far, that's not to say I didn't laugh at any of them, so I'm hesitant to this. I love when he's undercover catching people out but then in the movies too much of it feels false, and then the scripted elements of it bring it down. I'll give it a watch over the weekend cause what else would I be doing.

Watched it tonight. Seemed to be far more scripted stuff than undercover stuff. Thought it was pretty terrible and I'm usually a big fan of his.

Maybe it is just me but I've never found Borat to be funny

I watched the original last weekend for the first time in many years. I thought it was still hilarious, holds up surprisingly well. This? It's just not very funny, there's not much more to say about it than that.

Not as laugh out loud funny as the first one, a lot more satirical comedy than slapstick humour or haha he's foreign humour this time that just raises a chuckle. Still worth a watch coming in at only an hour and 30 mins. The build to the bit at the end with Giuliani is decent.

I was thinking that the 2 Rednecks he "moves in with" for a bit have to be actors no chance Americans could be that stupid then it gets to the fight for our rights rally and wow, I was probably wrong.

I love Borat but tbh I won't watch this again, bar a couple of laughs this was pure and utter garbage

Yeah very poor, a couple of laughs is being generous. The song and the crowd reactions towards the end were probably about the funniest part, which was already all over social media a few months ago when it was shot.

Watched it, the "daughter" character was irritating, it's pretty much all over the place, there are a few funny bits but overall massively staged, it would be better if instead, the whole story revolved around him bringing a fancy gold watch to Pence. I actually think a full film of Gio Monaldo would have been a much better idea, very hard to recognise him in that disguise and he could have come out with all sorts.

Unless you have seen the first film and absolutely loved it I would completely avoid this.

Watched last night, wasn't sure if I'd maybe grown out of this type of humour, but reading this thread I have decided it's just not very funny.
