Borat -

Did anyone else spot the Lotus reference / advertising – or am I the only one sad enough? :roll:

the movie has taken the US box office by storm. $26.1m at the weekend, despite being in only 800 cinemas. (the va for a US release is 3000+)

It has to be the most un politically correct film I've ever watched - but it is IMHO pretty funny!

I just don't find him funny - in any of his guises.

Had a similar chat with one of the lads at college - he thought he was hillarious and I said it had been done before with Harry Enfiled's Stavros.



Each to their own I suppose.

Yes I spotted the Lotus sign on the garage where Borat bought his ice cream van. A really strange film however many moments of total hilarity (is that a word?) :lol: little bits keep flashing back to me and making me laugh again :lol:

EXTREMELY un-PC, however, one of the funnies films I have ever seen.
My son and I were in stitches. Go see it!
