New Movie Review: Borat - Get up Right Now and Go See This Movie
When it comes to reviewing theatrical films we rarely tell people what to do. Our crack review team sifts through the week's releases and gives you their take on what they liked and didn't like about the films. This week is different. We, the DVD Talk Review Staff are telling you to go out and see Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan. Don't wait for DVD, don't want to see it but not actually see it. Just get up, go to your movie theater and see it. Put simply Borat is a comedic revolution. It will forever change the way people look at comedies and is absolutely 100% guaranteed to make you laugh out loud harder than you've laughed in a long long time. Borat is the proverbial five star movie that you measure other movies against. DVD Talk Reviewers Jamie Rich, Brian Orndorf and Eric Snider all give Borat DVD Talk's Highest Rating. So listen to us, we know what we're talking about... See Borat, get completely offended and laugh to the point of pain. Other films reviewed this week include Flushed Away, Shutup and Sing, The Santa Clause 3 and Snoop Dogg's Hood of Horror. As always, we invite you to share your thoughts on films in theaters in our Movie Talk Forum Area.

Miami: S4 [Review], Kids in the Hall: S5, Kissology, Vol. 1, Rivers and Tides: SE [Review] and The Tarzan Collection 2.

Now with over 17,450 DVD reviews in the DVD Talk Review Database, it's easy to overlook some of the great reviews. Recent DVD Reviews include: Cinema Paradiso: Limited Collector's Edition - one of the most beloved cinematic works of the last 20 years gets the DVD release it finally deserves and snags DVD Talk's highest rating; The Exorcist - The Complete Anthology - one of the best horror films spawned one of the more colorful and strange series of sequels and prequels which are all finally bought together into one package; Body Heat - Lawrence Kasdan's thriller is the real deal fashioned of rare sure-footedness, style and wit. Dealing Dogs - grueling, emotionally devastating and wholly shocking with a message that needs to be heard; Ganja & Hess - The Complete Edition - a movie like no other, it's one of the true "lost films" of the 1970s and a significant piece in African-American cinema.
