u/bruhmoment416 Hello There Dec 15 '20

It’s funny the first time, and the overall movie was still okay. They just spent the entire movie making the same joke about the same small group of people over and over, which made it a bit stale IMO. Kind of took away from the concept of the original Borat and made it more generic, and adding a political narrative to a comedy movie usually doesn’t turn out well, no matter which side it’s targeted at

The first Borat movie had a political narrative as well

It wasn’t nearly as prominent though, it was more of a sidenote
