Borat

Dominating the box office its opening weekend, British comic Sacha Baron Cohen's Borat: Cultural Learnings of America For Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, combines the best of everything from The Three Stooges, to The Goon Show, to Peter Sellers and Monty Python, points out a piece in CSMonitor.com. As the hapless Kazakh "reporter" - and the country's "sixth most famous man" - Borat is both "outrageously offensive" and "painfully hilarious," and, more importantly, bears the hallmarks of everything that subversive comedy does best: "An intuitive grasp of what makes audiences uncomfortable and how far they will go to laugh at themselves."
