This is easily the funniest film of the year so far. Sasha Baron Cohen is without doubt one of the bravest comedians on film at the moment, and thankfully he doesn't so any sign of stopping.
In the UK we got introduced to him as Ali G, a character I personally never liked, mainly because he seemed to be tying to embarrass people, same with Borat. Bruno seems to move away from this slightly, in this case Cohen gives his interviewee's just enough rope to hang themselves, and in some scenes, the child model auditions spring to mind, even he seems surprised by their reactions.
This film is the perfect example of marmite film-making, your either going to hate it, or your going to get the joke and laugh your ass off. Thankfully the screening I saw everyone seemed to get the joke, even though I did hear one audience member comment, 'What the F**k, was that!'.
Only two scenes bugged me, the senator sequence felt out of place, and the final song was a bit, 'look who we got'.
Please don't go and see this if your easily offended, but if your not, go , laugh and see it again.
