after school yesterday, we went to leicester square to watch the movie BORAT. I am very sure Singapore doesnt screen the movie at all. i shall explain why later.
the cost of movies is totally insane! for an adult ticket, it cost 35 sing dollars. student price is29 singapore dollars. since me, astee, ks n haojun have orange phone plans. we enjoy a 2 for 1 movie price on wednesdays, which is why we went to watch yesterday. It amounted to 18 singapore dollars. elaine was there too. BUT during the show, the fire alarm rang. the movie was stopped halfway. and after everything was settled down, we went back in with a FREE TICKET to watch any show at any time! so cool! so it is majiam like we watch 2 weekend movies in singapore. shiok! this kinda thing really once in a blue moon when the moon is really blue man.
okok back to the show. It is an American production to laugh at America. It pokes fun at almost everything. It is about this guy named, Borat. He comes from this rural country. First, he made racist remarks against Jews and saying that the gals in the country are all prostitutes and the males are all dominant.
then he went to america. the movie behaved like a documentary and from then on, he poked fun on everything. he went to this meeting with the feminist actions, and he argued with them saying women's brains have the size of squirrels' brains, or smth lidat. he went for this class learning american jokes,which in fact he mocked at the american jokes. he made racist remarks about indians and he mimicked the way the black americans talked and behaved. in the show, he fell in love with pamela anderson when he was watching Baywatch.Then, he got devastated after watching a porn video where she was in. Borat had a fine dining lesson and it is just soo funny. cos he was taught to talk to people around his vicinity over dinner but in the end he talked to everyone. In his hometown, retards are ostracized. however, over dinner, this guy was telling him that he retired. and borat kept on blasting that he was a retard! cos the 2 words sound similar.
the documentary went on to show the gay's pride day in america and being gullible, he was tricked into having sex. ahahha. there was this scene also where his friend was masturbating with the baywatch magazine in his hand. YES, they showed him doing that. and Borat n that friend fought in such a way until they were both naked in hotel room and fighting scenes was hilarious. cos in the end, they were fighting in both anal and 69 positions. and after which, they chased each other around in the whole hotel much to the horror of other guests.
and borat sang the american anthemn wif the lyrics totally changed in the presence of soooo many americans and he was blasting bush with iraq. (so not surprising)
the amazing part of the show was that i think, most of the parts were impromtu in the sense that they really arranged a meeting with the feminist group for example to see their reactions. the show has parts which showed the reaction of the americans when borat did something funny or stupid. and poor pamela anderson fleed all the way when borat tried to cover her in a sack, where he said is a wedding sack.
oh, and he talked abit about christianity too! he went into this worship session. he asked the pastor, "does jesus like me?" and "does jesus like my neighbour?" a typical christian will always say jesus likes everyone. and of cos the pastor said that. then borat said, "but no one likes my neighbour!" arrghh, he juz makes fun of everything.
and the movie is rated 15 here, meaning all aged above 15 are allowed to watch. but in singapore, i think after it is gone through the sensors, the remaining show will have probably 3min screen time with nothing left. but as a singaporean, i feel that ya it is quite bad but maybe a r21 rating should be given to this show.
heavenknows
