'Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan' - Film review

8 out of 10

An inspirational story of finding love in unlikely places. A TV reporter from Kazakhstan dreams of the world beyond and resolves to go to America to help find a better life for himself and his village. Along the way he encounters intolerance and various other hardships but his faith and love of a special woman keep him going.

I found this to be very moving, deconstructing the American dream while also giving deep insight into a little known culture. I understand that many viewers find Borat to be a figure of ridicule and end up laughing at him. I found him to be sincere, honest and inspirational. His open-mindedness should be an example to us all.
