Just got back from his latest Cringe Fest. Someday I will learn to laugh absolutely guilt-free at his corny attacks on civility and ethnicity. I applaud his fearlessness and lack of taste as not many people have really had the bollocks to carry on in his manner. I liked 'The Dictator' better than 'Borat' because there was an actual story to it. Not much of a story but enough to have some sort of continuity.
The bit on Yiddish tickled my funny bone, the gone great dictators comment which included Cheney, and the dictator speech in which he described post-9/11 America were mild hoots to me. (Not being American he probably wrote the script just so he could say that--where are the censors?)
Sascha giving us "pressed penis on glass" was yet another hideous touch which is in danger of becoming a Cohen watermark.
I noticed the Kardashian quip in the trailers was missing---was this a lawyer thing because it sure was funny.
I'm being generous and giving it 2 helpings of grits our a delightful 5 helpings.
