There's literally nothing that I can say about this movie that hasn't already been said. I haven't seen a lot of Sacha Baron Cohen's work, though I've heard enough guyfriends (mostly Jews) sing "Throw the Jew Down the Well" that I felt I knew at least something. Normally, I embarass easily on behalf of others, but I didn't get that same feeling here -- though I am glad that they didn't do anything awful to the elderly Jewish couple. It was certainly entertaining and I had braced myself for something more intense. As an idea, one must admit, it's pretty impressive. Here's the NY Times review, like you haven't seen the movie already.
