Borat 2: first great movie of coronavirus era
There's sure to be no shortage of Covid-19 movies in our near future, from dramatized biopics to work-from-home office sitcoms. Most of them will probably be terrible. Maybe a few will be good, but none will have the urgency of Borat Subsequent Moviefilm.
Jake Kleinman, Inverse, 21st October 2020Borat and daughter team up to smash the patriarchy
It's not a great success, but it's a pretty good success. Rating: B.
Matt Goldberg, Collider, 21st October 2020Review: 'Borat 2' offers big but inconsistent laughs
The coronavirus sequences don't quite work and the Donald Trump finale can't hold a candle to the prior Pamela Anderson one. There's also an over reliance on cliches but typically the jokes that hit make up for the movie's duller aspects.
Deirdre Molumby, Entertainment.ie, 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-.
Eric Kohn, IndieWire, 21st October 2020Borat 2 review
After 14 years, Borat returns with a sequel that leans into the original's best satire.
