Delivery of Prodigious Bribe to American Regime for Make Benefit Once Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan is a 2020 American mockumentary comedy film directed by Jason Woliner in his feature directorial debut.

Borat Subsequent Moviefilm: Delivery of Prodigious Bribe to American Regime for Make Benefit Once Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan is a sequel to 2006's Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.

Although Baron Cohen had said in 2007 that he had retired the Borat character, he was spotted in 2019 in the disguise, and was seen filming in it during the COVID-19 pandemic in the summer of 2020, leading to speculation of a second Borat film. The project was officially announced in September 2020, with Amazon Studios acquiring the distribution rights. Borat Subsequent Moviefilm was released on October 23, 2020, on Prime Video. It received praise from critics for Baron Cohen and Bakalova's performances, as well as the commentary on American culture.

OK if you are familiar and his movies you know what you are in for……..if your not brace yourself for a wild mockumentary trip!!

First off you need to mentally remove yourself from all politics and keep a very open mind so you can enjoy this comedy for what it’s worth. This man has no shame and I’m glad he doesn’t. I found myself laughing out loud throughout the movie. The risks he takes for the subject matter he uses in this film is far an above what you would imagine. Cohen has been notorious for pointing out political and social problems in society with
Borat Subsequent Moviefilm being no different.

If you were a fan of the original 2006 Borat film this one is somewhat different. It is more refined and much more relevant to the things we are going through today from politics to COVID to human rights and equality. Everything we see day in and day out on the news…..LOL

Obviously many will say this is a stupid film. However this is just another mans vision of what he sees going on in the world thru his eyes. I saw this as another entertaining moment to enjoy and laugh…..you can’t let this get to you by any means.

Check it out and you'll understand exactly why nobody can match Sacha Baron Cohen in the art of making people look incredibly stupid.
