Okay, I've seen it. It's kind of gross and tasteless in spots...which has become more and more typical of comedy movies in the last decade or two. I prefer subtle humour, like in the movie "Lost In Translation". However, it's also very funny in spots. I think anyone who wastes their time getting offended by it is realllllly wasting their time BIGtime. It's not worth getting offended by a movie as wacky as this one.

It's natural that Khazak politicians would act outraged about it, because politicians everywhere figure it's their professional business to get outraged over anything that outrages any of their constituents..."I mean, YIKES! There are votes at stake here. I better damn well express the appropriate amount of outrage and raise bloody hell about it or people won't vote for me next time!" (yawn....)

Really, this movie makes fun of just about everybody, but most of all of middle Americans, armoured in their cultural ignorance...

One thing I like about Canada is we don't tend to get upset when people make fun of Canadian culture...in fact, we join in the joke and add to it with much enthusiasm. This is something a lot of nations just don't seem able to do for some reason. They take it all soooo seriously. Could be they're a little insecure?

I kid you not. You know whatcha got in Canada? Snow! A hell of a lot of it. And not much else. We have designated drivers to drive people back after late night maple syrup binges. I'm talkin' staying up till 9:30 PM!!! Our military forces consist of a moose, a beaver, 16 guys from Wawa, and a truckload of snowballs and peashooters. Summer lasts a week and a half, so we really enjoy getting a tan, eh? Canada! Love it or don't.
