I've linked/posted a bunch of movie reviews mostly favorable, some not
favorable at alt. fan. letterman under "Martin Short."
They contain important commentary/criticism, and thus I think I'll try
to re-post 'em here into this threrad.
I realize that anybody can go to various movie review websites and have
at 'em, while the ones I've gathered impress me to so do it this way
too:

And furthermore, besides Short, here's some de-constructing of BORAT:

10. Persian Jew (they really think they're sumthin, especially at Purim
when making noise)
9. Offensive (The Irving Berlin version of the KKK, i don't know what
this exactly analogizes)
8. Alumnus of snotty British college (they look-down on the
Southeastern Conference)
7. Insulting, incendiary, insolent, inbred, indignant, instigator, Inn
Holiday, Indiana
6. VARIETY headline prediction: MEL BROOKS SUES BORAT ON PROFESSIONAL
JEALOUSY OF UPSTART GROUNDS
5. VARIETY headline prediction #2: MEL GIBSON SUES BORAT FOR PLAGARISM
4.---1. USA TODAY editorial: We've Seen That Cockeyed BORAT Movie, And
So We Give-Up
This review takes a favorable slant at least in the final paragraph:
