The DVD also has extra deleted scenes available for you to watch giving you more jaw dropping, bone crunching laughter time. These include:~
~ Dogs pound - borat visits a dogs kenel and attempts to adopt a puppy. However, after telling the worker that he wants to train it to attack jews, he wants to have sex with it and then eat it the worker refuses to let him adopt from the kennel. Hilariously funny!
~ Massagings - Borat calls a massage parlour and hires a masseur. He then misunderstands the orders from the masseur and ends up in very weird positions. A must see!
~ Supermarket - Borat pays a visit to a supermarket in which he travels along isles asking a worker what each item is. The cheese isle is the main feature of this bonus footage. Funny but borinng after a while!
~ Doctor - Borat visits a doctors surgery to get advice on medical issues he has and the doctor is astounded when he is told Borat has ghonorea after having 'a sexy time' with his sister. Another hilarious must see!
~ Policings - shows the points where Borat is stopped by local police forces across America and the issues they have with him. Not so funny to watch but interesting with the opinion of the public and forces have of Borat!
~ Rodeo reportings - mews reporters tell of the publics disgrace after Borat messes up his visit to the rodeo by singing Kazakhstans national anthem to the tune of America's.
~ More footages - this is just extra footage of Borat out and about in the country of America. He tricks people into saying hilarious comments and sentences just to amuse the viewers.
~ Sexydrown watch - This is Borats own version of Baywatch. You see Borat and Azamat in the famous thong water panties patrolling the beach for any unsuspected visitors and helpless members of the public in need of help! Another hilarious deleted scene!
~ Propaganda - this has footage of Borat travelling all over the world in order to promote his film. Great viewing!
Great film to watch with friends, on a night in or even to cheer you up whilst on your own. This film is the one to watch in 2006 and 2007. Must have DVD of 2007, get it while you can, I would suggest!!

Very good review but I think you can write a bit more about the actual film because it is the main point. If you do that then leave a comment in my GB I'll come back and read it again and tell you what I think. It is still very good though.
