Advantages: Some funny parts.

Disadvantages: Not necessary!

Having had a few giggles whilst watching the truely abserd Borat film a few years ago (in between hiding behind my pillow from too much cringing) I decided to give Bruno a go when it came out at the cinema. The advert looked funny, but its so hard to tell with comedy films, because sometimes they just put all the funny bits in the advert and leave nothing else for the film.

Bruno tells the story of the main character, the film's namesake, who is a gay Austrian fashionista. He has a job reported for a TV show, but loses it after an embrassing incident at a show. The film follows his attempts to become famous. His assistant who is besotted with him follows him around helping him out constantly.

The film aims to shock. It covers nudity, abortion, adoption, insulting celebrities, gay issues, and explicit sex scenes. I am not easily offended at all, btu something in this film felt too much. I think it was because it were just loading up anything that could cause offence, just to shock people and thats why, in my opinion its just not necessary.

The film does have its funny parts, that really make you laugh out loud, but to me it just seems Sacha Baron Cohen took Bruno, and tried to out do himself, for no real reason.

Do not go if you are easily offended!

Summary: Borat, but worse!
