Borat 2 is a targeted takedown of America's worst
Underneath it all it's got an empathy and an urgency the first Borat seemed to lack, thanks to its focus and the family at its center. That's very nice. Rating: 3.5 out of 4.
Eric Vilas-Boas, New York Observer, 21st October 2020Borat Subsequent Moviefilm review
Baron Cohen resurrects his most confrontational character for the ultimate indictment of America in 2020, and he hits his target many times over. Grade: A-.
Eric Kohn, IndieWire, 21st October 2020Borat 2 review
After 14 years, Borat returns with a sequel that leans into the original's best satire.
Michael Rougeau, GameSpot, 21st October 2020Review: Borat Subsequent Moviefilm
Sacha Baron Cohen's Kazakh is back - and Linda Marric is entertained.
Linda Marric, The Jewish Chronicle, 21st October 2020Borat 2 review: Great success
Thanks to Covid-19, very few people will have the chance to see Borat Subsequent Moviefilm in a crowded theater with a bunch of other enthusiastic comedy fans. A viewing alone at home on one of our "calculators" will have to suffice for now.
Matt Singer, Screen Crush, 21st October 2020Borat 2 review
Borat's at it again, with a plot getting in the way of his latest politically charged cinematic shenanigans. Rated 2.5 out of 4.
Brian Truitt, USA Today, 21st October 2020Borat Subsequent Moviefilm review
Borat Subsequent Moviefilm may not contain all of the shock and awe of the original, since exposing racists has sadly sort of become commonplace, but it still contains an avalanche of awkward, anxiety-cranking moments that'll have you laughing while watching through your fingers like you would a horror movie. And the film's fantastic find, Maria Bakalova, Sacha Baron Cohen's on-screen equal, is who, and what, most people will be talking about in the wake of this.
Matt Fowler, IGN, 21st October 2020Borat review: if you love the 1st movie you'll love it
If you thought it crass, vulgar and unutterably puerile, well - this one is a fair bit worse.
Brian Viner, Daily Mail, 21st October 2020Borat 2 review
The Borat follow-up mocks legacy sequels while shining a light on the cultural consequences of America's unchecked bigotry.
Scott Mendelson, Forbes, 21st October 2020Borat Subsequent Moviefilm review
It's shock that chokes the best laughs out. This is Sacha Baron Cohen's funniest, edgiest, greatest movie since Borat. Very niiiice.
