With some time to kill before finally going to sleep, I decided to sit down and watch Sacha Baron Cohen's new movie "Bruno," instead of paying that $7 to see it in theaters. I saw parts of Borat, and had the basic idea of what to expect going into the movie. It wasn't a surprise; lots of profanity, some nudity, racism, etc. R-rated, of course. But I enjoyed it nonetheless, I feel mature enough to handle that type of comedy, and rather enjoyed it. For those of you that find that kind of thing to be highly offensive, I suggest you don't watch it.
I wasn't hooked from the start, but as the movie wore on and I got a good idea of the plot it turned out to be pretty good. The storyline was about a homosexual Austrian 19-year-old named Bruno that moved to L.A. to become famous. He goes through many unsuccessful attempts to achieve fame, such as adopting an African baby he names "O.J." Bruno tries to change his sexual orientation, but not even a beautiful and busty blonde can change his sexuality.
I don't want to spoil anything, just give a basic idea of the plot and what to expect. I thought it was a very funny movie, I didn't enjoy trying to understand the excessive German, but overall it was funny and not too long of a movie. If you have a liberal sense of humor then I would recommend watching Bruno, if you don't like it you'll have only lost a little over an hour of your life. :)
My rating (out of a possible 5): 3 1/2
