Borat 2 review
In a sign of changed times, the new Borat is far less funny than its predecessor.
Jake Wilson, Sydney Morning Herald, 22nd October 2020Borat 2 slammed by anti-abortion charity for baby gag
The comedy character, played by actor Sacha Baron Cohen, sees his on-screen daughter scoff a cupcake which has an edible model baby on top. The pair then visit Carolina Women's Health Center in the US and discuss "taking the baby out" with a shocked pro-life pastor. The controversial "I swallowed the baby" clip in Borat 2 was posted online earlier this week amassing tens of thousands of viewers ahead of the movie's big release on Amazon Prime Video tomorrow (FRI).
Nadeem Badshah and Sasha Morris, Daily Star, 22nd October 2020Borat 2 gets lewd & nude in unfunny political satire
Hail the mask-ini. How could any satire be more outrageous or diabolically satirical than what the clowns in Washington have done in 2020? Well, Borat Subsequent Moviefilm: Delivery of Prodigious Bribe to American Regime for Make Benefit Once Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, which we are informed was made in association with the Centers for Disease Control, tries to answer that question and mostly fails. Rating: C-.
James Verniere, Boston Herald, 22nd October 2020Borat Subsequent Moviefilm review
The gloves - and other items of clothing - are off as Sacha Baron Cohen unleashes a stateside stunt spree and political satire fest.
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 21st October 2020Borat 2 is not great success, but still very nice
Sacha Baron Cohen returns to mess with America once again, but finds it hard to troll a populace that's already trolling themselves.
Clint Worthington, The Spool, 21st October 2020Borat Subsequent Moviefilm (review)
He does what he can to have some fun and get some big laughs - sometimes with his genius very much on display - but this go around we're going to have to replace "Very nice!" with "Very...fine."
Matt Rooney, JoBlo, 21st October 2020Borat Subsequent Moviefilm review
Shocking, essential, and endlessly hilarious.
Charlie Ridgley, ComicBook.com, 21st October 2020Borat Subsequent Moviefilm review
Jaw-dropping exposé will be one the most talked-about films of the year.
Clarisse Loughrey, The Independent, 21st October 2020Borat 2 is a targeted takedown of America's worst
Underneath it all it's got an empathy and an urgency the first Borat seemed to lack, thanks to its focus and the family at its center. That's very nice. Rating: 3.5 out of 4.
Eric Vilas-Boas, New York Observer, 21st October 2020Borat Subsequent Moviefilm review
Baron Cohen resurrects his most confrontational character for the ultimate indictment of America in 2020, and he hits his target many times over. Grade: A-.
