Quotes about Sacha Baron Cohen
Yes, dear reader, Sacha Baron Cohen is loose in the Middle East ... The end product will no doubt be hilarious. We will try to be good sports about it.
said Yossi Alpher
The locals hate this Sacha Baron Cohen. His movie was filmed in Romania and, they say, he should have used a mythical country. They call him really bad names in their basic Kazakh, and in their mother tongue, Russian. The picture is banned in the country, but everyone, thanks to bootleg DVDs, has seen it. However, a note to Sacha: Do not visit here. Show up, and they'll tear your borats off.

Sacha is not as worried about the relationship between his parents and Isla as everyone else is because he's extremely devoted to her and their child. He also believes that putting too much pressure on Isla is only going to make the wedding happen later rather than sooner. He is happy taking his time to get married the same way he was happy having a long engagement.
