It sounds like Borat is trying too hard. I'm all about faux European dudes, but you have to be more random than obnoxious.

I agree with you there. When people say "go see Borat...he will offend you and hopefully make you laugh either nervously or because he's really funny" it kind of kills it. Just like anyone who is trying really hard to offend whether it is sattire or just being an asshole.
I thought he was funny when I saw him on an interview but it's overkill so I won't be seeing this movie--until maybe the dollar theater gets it.
