Master of disguise Sacha Baron Cohen hits the road to explore America as
the crude Kazakhstani reporter Borat in a feature mockumentary that brings one
of the Da Ali G Show star's most popular characters to life on the big screen.
Sent by the Kazakh Ministry of Information to interview knowledgeable Americans
and bring his findings back home, Borat flies to New York City to begin his
quest, but his plans change after he catches an episode of Baywatch on his hotel
TV. Determined to make his way to California so that he can entice the beautiful
Pamela Anderson to be his bride, he sets off on a road trip with his camera man
in tow. Within this loose, scripted framework, Borat engages in his usual
misbehavior with unsuspecting strangers: from accidentally releasing a chicken
from his suitcase on a New York subway ride to a formal interview with Alan
Keyes. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
