Brüno

I wonder what would Borat ask to Brüno if he interviewed him:
Borat: So what do you prefer?
Brüno: Ich prefer cocks!
Borat:

Just got back form seeing it. It was exactly as I suspected it would be: I laughed a lot (especially the ending) and will refrain from seeing it again for a long time. It did feel as though a lot of people were in on the jokes and hamming it up as well; however, a lot of the comedy is simply the situations Cohen puts himself in, so it's not like it ruins it.

Overall, if you liked Borat you'll like Bruno. It's in essence the same style of humor but the content has changed.

There's no reason to see a movie if you don't have high expectations. Why would I go see a movie if I think it's going to be bad?

Obviously a lot of people who saw Bruno also saw Borat, and while they are very similar movies, the humor in them is pretty different. Bruno was just way too over the top in many parts. The first time he exposes himself I laughed. But by the third and fourth gay sex / naked scenes, it starts getting a little ridiculous. They resorted a lot more towards shock value humor like others have been saying.

I am not one of the people who hates Sacha Baron Cohen. I absolutely loved Borat and find Da Ali G show to be fairly funny, but I thought Bruno was ridiculous. Sure, I found myself laughing out loud at many parts throughout the movie, but overall it was just dumb.

I guess I'm in the minority here, but I'll say it. Bruno was one of the funniest movies I've seen in my life.

I know I'm not like most people here. I absolutely LOVE shock humor, and that's what this movie was. There were some parts I couldn't believe were making it onto the big screen, and that made them even better. Some scenes were so horribly offensive, and that's exactly what this movie is supposed to be. If you like shock humor, you'll probably find this a very enjoyable movie.

My stomach hurt after from laughing so hard. My whole theatre was going crazy I could barely here some parts because people wouldn't stop laughing.

Well, it certainly has the shock value, and it's the only film I've seen in a LONG time where the other cinema goers were laughing their heads off. Sure, you could look closely at it and examine it, but when you see it for the first time, it leaves you like this.

Also, if you are even SLIGHTLY homophobic, don't see this film.

Also, the finale is amazing.

Saw it

Loved it

Laughed my ass off, although I did think it started running out of steam about 3/4 of the way in, but I don't think it went for more than 5 minutes without flooring me with something. I went to see it with the spouse, and a colleague/friend of mine.

The gay humor was really over the top - I don't think it could have worked otherwise - whatever the case may be, I lol'd throughout.

The funniest scene to me, in the WHOLE movie, was where he goes hunting with the three rednecks, and makes some statement about the stars - I won't spoil it, but just the extended silence had me killing myself laughing.

Also "I couldn't even verstrumpf Rue Paul" - lolzerz

Basically, as far as I'm concerned, it's just as good as Borat - it's the same style of movie, so don't go looking for something fresh and original - however, I enjoyed Borat enough that a "sequel" was definitely up my alley ("not yet" :P)

Saw it today. Most hilarious movie I've seen in a LOOOOOOOOOOOONG time.
Like others said, the theater was going crazy. That ending was priceless. I thought Straight Dave was real at first. One thing i noticed was that it had like, EXACTLY the same plotline as Borat.

They must move to America.
They explore tring to achieve their goals.
Friend Leaves.
Goes at it alone.
Friend Reunites.
Phin.

I would say I laughed hardest at the Swingers partyy, the ending, them running intothe god hates fags people chained together ( the theater laughed hardest at that) or the scene with diesel.

I lol'd pretty damn hard at a lot of parts, but the only thing was it was WAY too gay for my taste. The Hitler stuff made me lol hard though.

Overall, if you liked Borat you will probably like this, but the only thing is all of the cocks throughout, that bugged me a little bit.

This movie was hilarious, although it was very graphic, i didn't mind so much but it became too much for some guys during the movie and some even started walking out. So it's worth going to see, but DO NOT watch it with your family, it'll be very awkward.
