This. Fucking Borat was essentially all about how "brilliant" that fucking cocksucker was for exposing how bad people are in his mind.
This fuckface isn't a comedian. He's not about making people laugh. He just wants to be an authority on right and wrong, and thinks he's some kind of knight in shining armor exposing those wrongs to the world.
Fuck Sacha Baron Cohen, and fuck his pretentious "mission."
>Comedian Sacha Baron Cohen doesn’t know the difference between audacity and offense, which is why, like Ricky Gervais, Bill Maher, and the late-night-TV bandits, he is favored by political partisans. They think promoting shameless, outrageous bias is a cultural virtue. Cohen’s new film, The Brothers Grimsby, mixes the offense and the absurdity of his 2007 Borat into a parody of British spy movies. Dole-collector Nobby (played by Cohen) reunites with his long-lost brother, Sebastian (Mark Strong), who has become an MI6 secret agent.
>There’s audacity in Cohen’s connecting escapist entertainment to documentary (he parodies James Bond as well as the BBC genre of miserablist British indie filmmakers, like Andrea Arnold and Lynne Ramsay), but his brazen presentation of the British underclass lacks social insight. He never reflects on spy-movie escapism or how, particularly in England, it becomes part of the entrenched class system. The Brothers Grimsby tweaks class anxiety (Nobby fathers a brood of welfare-state miscreant soccer fans who embody the lower-class faults of indolence, penury, and waste) and then absolves that corruption with lewd, ludicrous — though sometimes funny — vulgarity.
>Cheerful distraction is typical of the way contemporary political satire works. Consider Cohen a political freak — one of those panderers who make fun of social frustration and resentment and are never constructive. Cohen’s burlesque (raunchy sex gags so blatant they’re surreal) is his most hilarious and effective mode, but half-jokes about government surveillance expose a double standard; he’s either politically ignorant or dishonest. Identifying Nobby’s hometown as “Grimsby –Twin City to Chernobyl” recalls the callous witlessness of Borat (while director Louis Leterrier supplies truly audacious, lightning-fast drone’s-eye-view action scenes — violence that deserve a more serious context).
It looked fucking awful and it probably was.
I saw the commercials, nothing was funny.
I just thought this was a random unfunny comedy from the poster
I mean it is, but I didn't know it was the Borat guy
>>67032377
Huge fan of Sacha.
Cant wait to watch it.
>>67032377
the same reason why Kingsman was such a shit film.
>>67032565
>Worst of all is the last-minute caricature of a real-life Republican presidential candidate, whom Nobby infects with HIV (only part of the Manhattan audience applauded). Why such heinous “topical” humor? That Cohen avoids satirizing Britain’s prime minister or royal family shows that contemporary comedians are unimaginative as well as biased. Most of today’s “political humor” appeals to liberals’ inhumanity, their insensitive self-righteousness. This is made plain when Nobby helps his spy brother’s mission and discovers the lethal efficacy of mindless gunfire. He editorializes, “I understand why you love guns so much: It completely detaches you from the guilt of your actions.” That’s liberal rhetoric, but it also explains why the vicious, ad hominem political humor currently rampant in our media is so abhorrent.

maybe if Statham was in it then i would have seen it.
I really enjoyed Spy but this looked utter shit from the trailers.
>Look how racist everyone is when I start acting racist onstage! What an ugly world we live in!
Cohen deserves to live on a sidewalk.
Bad Grandpa was a better look at human nature than any of Cohen's idiotic stunts.
>>67032598
Holy shit , white critics can never compete
>That part in Borat where everyone starts singing Throw the jew down the well
Are americans really this anti-semitic?
>>67032598
>>Worst of all is the last-minute caricature of a real-life Republican presidential candidate, whom Nobby infects with HIV
Does this really happen?
What the fuck?
>>67032377
Sacha is only funny when he's allowing other people to expose their prejudices.
He needs to be a conduit to getting people willing to just say what's really on their mind.
If he's actually writing it, it's shit.
Everything he's ever done that's been humurous has been fueled by the reactions of racists, liberals or average Joes.
>>67032764
Borat was funny even during the skits
>when he throws money at the mice
Thing is it wasn't mean spirited, people like Borat or Ali G aren't real people, nobody in the audience feels like they are making fun of him
There is a common misconception on both the right and left that a comedy can only be funny if it's "bullying" or defamation

So basically Sacha Baron Cohen is only good at lying to strangers and tricking them into saying bad things.
What a hypocritical pot-calling-the-kettle-black piece of shit.
>>67032847
Doesn't he throw money at cockroaches, who he thinks are somehow Jews?
>>67032377
>What went wrong?
Cohen didn't die during production.
>>67032598
Such a punchable face. What a faggot.
They were so busy shoving in shock value that they forgot the jokes
>>67032598
I am convinced that is a white anon in a latex face mask.
Fucking Jackass had more convincing old man faces, with more individual segments.
>>67032565
> the BBC genre of miserablist British indie filmmakers, like Andrea Arnold
I can't disagree, but Fish Tank is a masterpiece.

Yeah he does, I remembered mice

this is actually an ok review
I thought it was alright just for laughs. Pretty silly kind of humour but I laughed regardless

I just don't like people who set out to expose the evils of the world, when they're using equally evil methods to do so.
>>67032377
Borat was a one hit wonder
>>67032377
it's not bad
really comfy actually

He tried to stump the Trump and now he's paying the price
Was actually kinda funny, just turn your brain off.

What's it like being a cuck?
>In “The Brothers Grimsby,” written by and starring Sacha Baron Cohen, Donald Trump gets AIDS. (Too bad Cohen doesn’t die of cancer.) And, sadly, that outrageous political BS is the least disgusting thing about this absolutely sickening, completely stupid, totally unfunny movie.
>If scenes of men inside the vaginal canal of an elephant, while male elephants have sex with the female elephant and ejaculate on the men inside, is your thing, then you’re a warped sicko . . . and this is your movie. For the rest of us, hopefully sanity prevails. I dare any idiot rabbi that lets this scumbag, Sacha Baron Cohen, pray in his synagogue to see this movie. Cohen should be excommunicated. He’s an absolute scumbag. And a really, really sick guy, since he dreamed up the very repulsive, disgusting scenes that make up this so-called movie. It’s just gross. And, by the way, this is supposed to be a comedy. I didn’t laugh once.
>At the terrorist attack, blood with the HIV virus is accidentally shot into Donald Trump’s mouth and we’re informed he has contracted AIDS. If only that would happen to Sacha Baron Cohen instead, the world would be a lot better off. You think he’d ever make a movie in which Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, or Bernie Sanders got AIDS? Think again. (It’s stuff like this that brings me over to Trump’s side more and more. If Hollywood hates him, that can’t be bad.) This guy Cohen is a total schmuck. Maybe he won’t get his now, but some day, he’ll rot in hell. Bet on it.
>Yes, this is the absolutely repellent garbage that is greenlit by Hollywood these days. And that creep, Cohen, is laughing all the way to the bank. Thanks, Sony Pictures. You really know Gitmo torture material when you see it.
