Movie Review: "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm" 10/23/20

This is a movie review for "Borat Subsequent Moviefilm" (aka "Borat 2"), released October 23, 2020. We watched this on the release date of October 23, 2020.



Trailer







Genre
Comedy


Cast

Sacha Baron Cohen - Borat Sagdiyev
Maria Bakalova - Tutar Sagdiyev




Plot

Borat, after finishing his first film about America, returned home to Kazakhstan. He was judged for his film about America and somewhat shamed. After a while, the President of Kazakhstan gave Borat a new mission: go back to America and bring a gift for someone of high importance. The catch is that the monkey they were going to bring didn't make the trip so his daughter (stowaway) will have to be the substitute for the gift. Considering Borat's background and Kazakhstan's ways, can he manage to get through the USA with his daughter? Can the gift be given safely? What could possibly go wrong?




Rating Criteria

0/5 – No value whatsoever. Absolute waste of time.

1/5 – Barely worth any time.

2/5 – Pathetic but has a bit of something to hold the attention a little.

3/5 – Somewhat kept the attention but could definitely have used more.

4/5 – Good, but not awe-strikingly amazing. Could have maybe used a bit more to the movie.

5/5 – Go see it! Wonderful movie all around. – characters, music, theme, story line, etc.


4/5 - For the year 2020, this was the funniest movie I had seen up to the end of October. The year had been rough and this was a mockumentary about life and COVID-19, not just about the United States. Would it be suggested to watch now that COVID-19 is mostly in the rear view mirror? I'm unsure about that but it is a cheesy/funny/stupid movie that was perfect for the time that it was released.

For a stand-alone movie, I would say that the first Borat movie was better than this one. This one did give a flashback/update at the beginning so all could (somewhat) understand the character's background but watching the first one would make it easier to understand. That being said, it was okay as it's own movie (as a second).

Watch at your own risk, especially if you get offended way easily.


Thanks for reading!

More reviews to come eventually.
