You&#8217;ll pretty much know how it works, if you&#8217;ve seen the bits on his Channel One or HBO shows, but this time, it&#8217;s glued together by a full script. Plus, he takes it a step further, this is truly extreme cinema you&#8217;ll be seeing. The mix of scripted (himself with actors) and unscripted (sections with unknowing participants) are contrasting, but it&#8217;s still a solid mix of different laughs. Granted, it&#8217;s not high-tech storytelling, there&#8217;s nothing new about the Borat character. But it&#8217;s such a laughing cannon, you can&#8217;t get around it.<br \/>\nIf you fancy yourself to have even have the slightest sense of humor, I will eat my leather shoes (without condiment or sauce) if you can keep your laughter down to mere chuckles. Hell, I&#8217;ll eat my whole if you keep your eyes dry.
