Grammar
Structure
I couldn't understand the structure of the following title of the movie, Borat (2006).
Did someone intentionally give a grammatically wrong title to it?
Or is it fine in terms of grammar?
Please answer me.
Thank you.

It is bad. It sounds like good old USSR-speak. Perhaps something like this was intended: Borat : American Culture Benefits Kazakhstan.

The bad English is intentional. That is the way the character Borat speaks English—not very well. That is what we call broken English.
