OK, so I've finally seen Borat. It was the stupidest movie I have ever seen, 
possibly with the exception of Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls, which I have 
no desire to watch again to make a comparison. Borat was crass beyond 
expectation, possibly more so than John Waters' early films such as Pink 
Flamingos.

Borat is low-brow comedy at its worst, and when it started to get some bad 
press, the PR machine apparently spun it as a high-brow project to expose 
people's prejudices. Baloney.

I had 4 laughs, maybe.
Best Scene: he enters the hotel to get a room, dressed and talking like a 
player.
Worst Scene: a gigantic ass and balls are in his face as they wrestle in the 
nude. I've heard of suffering for one's art, but that was ridiculous. I 
didn't laugh. Rather, my eyes bugged out as I said to myself, "What was he

thinking!?"

Apparently he hasn't been thinking for a very long time. I would be 
deeply concerned about the mental capacities of not just the actors, but 
of anyone who actually enjoyed the flick. And yes, I did see it. I'm 
part of a parent's group at my church and we review all movies that play 
in our local theaters to determine if they our appropriate for our 
children to see. I wouldn't allow my daughter's hamster to see that one. 
It would insult his intelligence. Apparently there are quite a few 
people with less smarts than little furry Ralph.

I would be deeply concerned about people I know and care about. Your 
mental capacities are your own concern - and the concern of people you 
may be in a position to influence.

So vulgarity is acceptable for adults?

Sorry, don't agree. I'm not a kid (or a pet), and that movie wasn't for me. 
I don't have a fragile mind, either. And it wasn't for me.
