Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan

I know I’m quite late to watching this but I loved the reaction!! Please react to Borat 2, or even just watch it yourselves if it’s something you can’t react to for whatever reason! The original has a lot more of the classic lines but Borat 2 was just before covid and is more ‘topical’ or ‘edgy’ if that’s the right term :)

That nude fight killed me off hahahaha

Just commenting to show appreciation for your videos, regardless of what they are reacting to or how often you post ❤️ thank u x

The guys in the RV were actors

You guys do what you think is best. Personally I think some reactions are good but the rest are pretty boring. Happy to see you do movie reactions alongside shows but it’s your channel you gotta do what you gotta do

Did they do the Ali g movie I've just seen bscribed for this

I think it was said that the only people in on the last scene were Sacha and Pamela and no one else knew what was happening. So her reaction is obviously acted but all the security guards responses were absolutely real. Same with a lot of it, some people were in on it but most people weren't bar key actors.

Great reaction guys, forgot how good this was. Bohemian Rhapsody next?

Please tell me you are going to react to the Ali G movie at some point. It's a work of art

You so much need to react to the second Borat movie to :D And thanks for a great reaction :D

Can I ask you to consider - just as a follow up, to watch this 'shock jock' interview where Borat appears in character to talk his 'movie films.' (Borat and Patrice O'neal on Opie and Anthony). Would work really well to react to and is bloody hilarious. Also, I was thinking a few interviews of Sasha Baron Cohen as himself - discussing the process behind playing these characters and the trouble he gets himself into. I watched the one with Jonathan Ross the other day and it was great - with Amy Poeler too, who is brill, as always. You'd be surprised how much is real (obvs bit of scripted stuff - particularly in the movies, so they can string a narrative together etc) and also how much danger he gets himself into. Literally the greatest troll of all time...

I love how dissapoined Mike and Jess were with the Antics store ..... It's a store.... They were selling ..... And they got paid in the end..... That's a good days business 👍🏻

Please dont do Bruno. That scene with him having a fat guys arse in his face is mild compared to his Bruno movie 2009. Say no more. Dont go see psychic is all il say!

There are way more subtitles in Borat 2 because there are two main characters talking to each other for much of the movie.

I found a version of this film with English subtitles. I don't know how to contact Jess & Mike directly, but here is the link: https://m.ok.ru/video/7028928088645

The people of Kazakhstan were pissed with him he had death threats for a long time

Will you watch the sequel

JAM or The League of Gentleman if you want something dark - Garth Marenghi's Darkplace is decent too as it only has 6 episodes

I really loved your reaction. You are lovely genuine people. I laughed so much at Jess. The tit cheese did it for me.

Awesome guys. Had a lot of fun watching your discomfort. If you are doing Sacha's movies I very much look forward to the next :D

Loved the reaction!

Unsurprisingly he got arrested a bunch of times while he was making the film 😂

Jess' Welsh accent is improving.

This film is so utterly ridiculous but it still makes me howl with laughter (and hide with embarrassment 😂) amazing reaction, thank you xx

Shame about the subtitles but still funny. Cohen, Azamat, Pamela Anderson and the prostitute were the only ones in on the joke. Everybody else was real and police were called many many times. As well as multiple court cases that followed its release. Brilliant.

Perhaps occasionally include movie reactions or outtakes as a bonus while continuing with TV shows as normal.

Ali G Indahouse would have been good to round off the Ali G stuff, but I see movies are cancelled now 😂. Really enjoyed this though, thanks guys.

This is America (with Sacha Boren Cohen) would be a great reaction and give some great insights into your opinions on what the show addresses

I've been waiting for this! Loved this reaction guys, I don't think not having subtitles spoiled it at all, the best bits were not subtitled anyway.. so overall.. great success! wa wa wee wa

Is a very nice reaction. I like! 30:37 "Booby cheese." 🤣 🤣 🤣

I recently read that the FBI were tracking him at some point. I can't confirm where I read this. But hilarious if true!

she was in on it but the dinner guests certainly were not. shit in a bag was ok but she was too much!

Sacha Baron Cohen had to dress up Borat for most of Borat 2, because too many people recognised him so quickly clicked it was a prank. Really it's the kind of thing that can only be done once for each character. Once the movie releases everyone knows.

Don’t listen to the haters about Gavin and Stacey. It is great.

Gavin and Stacey please

So good....can't believe we've never had you guys react to Borat's movie until now. I was just trying to think of similar films for you guys to react to...I watched The Dictator, that was pretty funny I remember watching it at the time but haven't rewatched...I never watched Bruno but I heard it's decent.

I think he had police called on him about 90 times filming and got assaulted a dozen times.

They threatened to cut his ba**s off when they discovered what the real deal was in that village

great reaction guys

Dude insulted the man's wife, brought a bag of shit to the dinner table and it was all patience and understanding. He brought a black woman to the house and within minutes they called the cops.

If you react to Bruno, prepare for impact. Jess will be watching the floor, the walls, and literally anything except the screen. 😂

Hope you watch the second one!

Bruno next lol another great character

If you think this is 'cringey', you should watch his 'Who is America?'. You will be hiding under the table - but it is essential viewing 😁😁

Meh missing subtitles isn’t the end of the world and you generally get the idea as it’s very slapstick. As for the other films, Bruno is the only other one that reaches the same heights. Borat 2 feels a lot more watered down. Ali G was the first film but tragically has no real - life parts, it’s all scripted. So Bruno>Borat2>AliG.

Probably best not to do the bruno film 🤣

I was so excited for this reaction but not having the subtitles means you are missing most of the context. Still a great reaction though.

The character playing Azmat is speaking Armenian, but Borat just talks gibberish

Is niiice

Everyone moaning about the subtitles are idiots this clearly didn’t have subtitles or they would have put them on

Where's your Kazakh subtitles? You're missing so many jokes.

OMG yessss

Nearly all of the best jokes in the movie are in a foreign language! You guys missed so much by turning off the subs.

I had to watch this is segment but was very good. I think those guys on the RV tried to sue. Looking forward to more movies 🎬

“Do you know the word demeaning ?” She didn’t see the irony there 😆

I was not expecting this today but I am so happy you’re watching this (I cannot WAIT for the Ali g movie

Awwwww subs

Ahahahahaha. I forgot how funny this was. Absolutely class. 😂😂😂

That hotel fight scene... never leaves u... 😔 😆

There's some great outtakes for this 👌

Seeing this film in the cinema was my first date with my wife! Very quickly helped remove any nervousness from both of us and was the start of two decades of laughter and love! ❤️

Oh good god, jess’ cringe meter about to go off the scale

That hotel scene is still a LOT all these years later 😂

To answer Mikes question at the end: Kazakhstan was furious about this film.

Since these older movies seem to be hit or miss with a lot of you, and the fact that we cannot find copies that have subtitles years later, I think it's best to move on from all movies and get back to the shows we have lined up.

Just a heads up, the 3 guys in the RV, along with most of the people in the movie had no idea. The 3 guys actually filed a lawsuit for defamation. Apparently being an obnoxious prick is worthy of getting paid.

In my youth I actually shoplifted a pornmag with the Pamela sex tape on VHS and I still have it.. ;)

Jess never fails to make me laught when she sees anything to do with nudity, so American. 😂

Been waiting for this forever. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

This film killed me 🤣 and Jess' laughter killed even more. Please do Bruno! That is on this level

At the start its actually filmed in a Romanian village and the people had no idea what he was filming and tried to sue him afterwards after they discovered what he was saying.

Is worth reading the entry on wikipedia or similar to answer some of the questions you may have and fill in the gaps. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Borat Just stop before the very last section where it mentions the sequel.

On min 44:55 i thought the picture of superhands was in borat film for a sec

Borat doesn't look like a typical Kazakh so they filmed those bits in Romania. The Romanian villagers weren't happy with how their way of life was depicted as so backwards in the movie

something like Borat which is cringe but very good. - My New Best Friend is a hidden‑camera comedy where contestants must convince loved ones that an outrageous character—played by Marc Wootton—is their real new best mate for a whole weekend. If they break the act, they lose £10,000. Known for its extreme cringe and sharp prank design, it’s considered one of TV’s boldest and most uncomfortable comedy setups.

The Dictator - Extended Cut, Sacha's last funny movie, gotta watch!

The frat boys in the RV tried to sue him for this 😂

Jess out of context= "He has a yamaka on his head, it's freaking me out. I don't like this." 🤣

You should watch the second film too, but do turn the subtitles on.

Im my country people would go crazy for jess 😆

I dont like that they did this to mostly nice people. It is funny though 👍🙂

You definitely need to watch second movie as well 😁

What a reaction to get up to on a Saturday morning! 🙏😂 Thanks guys! I love this film, haven’t seen it in ages! ❤️

The second movie is even better imo, the actress is great lol

There's only characters who knew what was going on, by the way - Borat, Azamat, Luenell and Pamela Anderson. The rest were totally unscripted and unaware. Obviously there's an amount of improvisation from Borat anyway.

That was an awful reaction.............................................................. NOT!!!

The near vomiting at the fight scene had me in tears 😂

You need to add Bruno next.

It’s hard to know 100% what’s accurate, but the story is that Pamela Anderson was in on it, but not the onlookers and not her security.

Jess had to look away, but she'd already seen everything.

This movie is going to destroy Jess 😭

Police were called 92 times during the filming 😂

The dude-bros were kind of sweet to Borat.

There's a second Borat movie so you gotta watch that too along with the Ali G in da house & Bruno movies.

My great auntie and uncle booked tickets for this and took my grandparents to the cinema .. they somehow didn’t know what the film was about. I couldn’t stop laughing when my Nan was telling me how shocked she was

Noo damn it guys 🤣 did you not think it was strange there was big sections you couldn't understand what was being said?!

So funny… You need to watch his Show… Who is America.

Missed sooo much without the subtitles! That's a pity.

again.. legends! both films are great (as well as bruno!) ✌️👍

So glad you enjoyed it. The Pamela Anderson meet scene was scripted. She knew what was going to happen, and was happy to go along with it. The guys in the RV scene not so much! They threatened to sue the studio after they saw the film, because they didn’t know it was a parody. Don’t know if they succeeded or not! If you think Borat was wild, I can’t wait to see your reaction to Sasha Baron Cohen’s “Bruno.” That was a real eye opener (in more ways than one!) 🤣

Yep. They went there! Loved it!

If you're doing movies, can you do the Monty Python films?

Cannot wait to see this reaction later ❤️❤️

Half of the jokes were in the missing subtitles.

Aw man more movies please 😂 this was epic 😂

Bruno movie and Who is America please. 🙏🙏

The bit with the bear must have been scripted. You never see the kids and the bear in the same frame, so I doubt it was in the car when the kids were screaming. The way they all screamed and ran also looked very staged. As you can imagine, they have lawyers to tell them what they can legally do and what they can’t.

You probably know this, but the actor’s name is Sasha Baron Cohen, and he is Jewish. When he is talking in “Khazak”, he’s actually speaking Hebrew with some nonsense words thrown in. Part of the original purpose of Borat was to say outrageously antisemitic things and see who went along with it.

The bit with the Jewish bed and breakfast made me actually uncomfortable when I first saw this film. Assuming they didn’t know what was going on (which they might have), this must have been very unpleasant for them.

Ah man, you blew it by turning all the subtitles off. You missed so much of their conversations.

You really need to rewatch this movie with subtitles, not just for more jokes, but for important context needed to understand many of the actions of Borat and Azamat.

Incredible film, sadly I can't watch it because it makes me cringe too much 😂

I been meaning to watch Borat but never got round to it this is the best excuse to watch it now 😄

Oh wow! What a weekend surprise!!

Holy Shit, what a great surprise!

You missed many jokes without the subtitles.

Was 18 when this came out, already being a huge Borat fan from the Ali G show this changed my life 😆

Very nice! How much?

Where the subtitles? You definitely need those

Gavin and Stacey please 🙏

Very nice!

OMG no way!!

Oh my! This was a pleasant surprise on a Saturday morning! Can’t wait to watch later

Borat!!
