Baron Cohen calls upon yet another of his alter egos - Bruno, a gay fashionista/TV reporter from Austria, who fancies himself as "the voice of Austrian youth TV." Bruno methodically worms his way into...( read more

September 12, 2009fuckin' funny, worth the watch, and I'll be sure to rent it to see it again once it goes out on dvd.

September 4, 2009I loved Borat. It made me laugh until I hurt. So what's wrong with Bruno? The big problem here, is that I felt more embarrassed for/by Cohen, than those he attempted to lampoon. Bless his heart, he just doesn't get the reactions he so sorely wants and needs. If he was trying to s...( read more)

Flamboyant Austrian fashionista Brüno takes his show to America.REVIEW
Let's get one thing straight from the start. If you are religious, homophobic, insecure in your sexua...( read more) -
August 10, 2009Actually, much better than what I expected it to be -definitely better than Borat. And yet still exceedingly bad. It has a couple of funny moments, but it's mostly offensive, obnoxious, insulting to the intellect, nauseating to the senses and overall plain idiotic and poin...( read more)

Cohen has come up with some marvelous satirical motifs; elsewhere, he's just showing how far he'll go to get a laugh. full review

Bob Mondello, NPR
When moments seem like setups with actors, they turn tame. But when things feel real -- as when Bruno conronts an Arkansas wrestling-match crowd -- they can get scary-real. full review

Colin Covert, The Minneapolis Star Tribune
I don't know how many more times Baron Cohen can go undercover, but it looks as if he'll never run out of bigotry, idiocy and hypocrisy to spoof. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Skeptics might not swallow it all, and thinner-skinned folks will surely be offended. But no one will deny that Baron Cohen is fearless in his pursuit of rowdy laughs. full review

Nigel Andrews, The Financial Times
Cohen's new one-star show is appalling and funny and sometimes both simultaneously. full review
July 9, 2009
Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
It's an exercise in offensiveness, an exploration of over-the-topness and a gleeful working of both sides of the street. What brings Brüno down, though, is sinful behavior. Mr. Baron Cohen commits the... full review

Brüno offers both succor and sucker bait for liberal-minded viewers who may feel harassed by prevailing and ever-shifting cultural sensitivities. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Like Swift's Gulliver's Travels, Brüno defies you not to see yourself in its funhouse mirror. And then dares you to laugh it off. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
The needle on my internal Laugh Meter went haywire, bouncing among hilarity, appreciation, shock, admiration, disgust, disbelief and appalled incredulity. Here is a film that is 82 minutes long and do... full review

July 18, 2009Has an infamous d!ck scene and several bondage scenes which really spoiled things, but other than that I laughed quite hard throughout.

July 11, 2009Wow... Sacha Baron Cohen will do anything! I love his character Bruno but some of the bits were a little... disgusting. It's funny but I like him in 'real life' more than on the screen. It was funnier than the trailer but also disturbing. When they say it's rated MA and when it's Sacha Baron Cohen, please don't bring your little children to watch it, just don't. Loved the character, disliked the movie. Good try Sacha.
