Is Borat offensive?

 

General Culture

You know, when you get a donkey expert (no, I’m not making this up) to comment on the Borat movie you know that the comedic jackpot has been hit: “There was a donkey at the beginning of the film with a very large person on it, but this happens all around the world. In the UK, there’s an eight-stone weight limit for anyone riding a donkey, which I’m sure he exceeded.” (story [scroll down for the donkey expert], there also is a glowing review)
