Borat

Our last day in Dubrovnik we caught the last showing of the Borat movie. It was pretty funny, but I really wasn’t sure if I was ready to go home after seeing it. The scenes with the college kids talking about slaves and the old cowboy guy talking about Muslims were pretty unbelievable. I remember Tyler looking over and saying “Do we really live there?”

Sacha Cohen is a pretty smart guy. It is just amazing that the Americans in the movie are ignorant enough to believe that a character like Borat could be real. They actually believe that there are places in the world where people drink horse urine, lock retarded people in cages, have sex with their sisters, and wash their faces in the toilet. I mean the Borat character is really funny, but the joke is not on Kazakhstan, it’s on America.
