Jagzhemash! The Borat Experience

Before yesterday, the last time I laughed in a movie theater was on the opening night of Old School. Granted, I was blazed out of my mind, but that's routine for any movie-going experience. Yesterday was no different. The old Freshman year crew piled into Simsbury's gas guzzling tank to embark on a 30 mile journey to see the highly anticipated release of Sacha Baron Cohen's film, "Borat". We had all the proper supples: bouge (cigarettes), twet (take a guess), and enough gas (45 gallons) to make it to the closest theater that was showing the film. Arriving just in time, the eight of us piled out of the truck eyes half open and smelling of foreign herbs. No big deal, I mean we were going to see an Ali G movie, isnt that expected? Anyways, Lil'D.C. retrieved the tickets that she fandango'd for us the night before completing the last step in our preparation for this historical event. So we headed in, excited, jittery, and stoned. The previews were long and shitty, but I was really baked so it didnt matter. After 20 minutes, it was finally time for the feature presentation. Excitement filled my body head to toe. As an Ali G fan for at least three years running, I couldnt wait to see what Sacha still had up his sleeve. Could he get even funnier than he already was? Well, the answer is yes. Growing up in the era of Caddy Shack, Dumb and Dumber, Billy Madison, and Old School was like growing up with sports teams that won the championship every year (except Im from Philadelphia so I have no idea what that's like, but you get the point). Bottom line is that Borat was one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Hilariously offensive, outrageously out of line, and strait up unbelievable, "Borat" had men, women, and children of all shapes, sizes, and haircuts on the floor laughing. From shitting in public to attacking Pamela Anderson, Borat managed to infiltrate every facet of American society. He leaves it all out there and holds nothing back. There is no reason to even give examples, because frankly it doesnt do justice to its success. This movie is a must see if you have any interest in seeing where the exciting future of comedy is heading. Blazed or sober, young or old, black or white, Jew or gentile, strait or British, I guarantee that this movie will have you on the floor. Sacha Cohen, god bless you, you have saved comedy and I can only hope that there is more to come. Sheyqui and good night.
