BRUNO

Let’s start with the obvious: Bruno is F***ing hilarious. I actually cried with laughter at one point. The stunts are works of demented genius, with Baron Cohen’s dedication to staying in character just as extraordinary as it was in Borat.
The storyline is simple, stupid, and very, very funny. Bruno, fired from Austrian Fashion channel ‘Funkyzeit’, heads to America and adopts an African baby in a quest for ‘greater celebrity’.
The baby arrives by freight at the airport in an amusing set piece, but, as with Borat and Ali G, the real fun comes from Bruno’s interaction with clueless celebs and plebs.
