Funny
Funny and shocking
I, however, and all of the packed audience loved it.
Very funny and over the top and if you have a sense of humour you will find it very funny - as long as you aren't offended by Politically Incorrect humour. it mainly pokes fun at american views and values, but, even I sucked my breath in a couple of times at some of the scenes.
But overall I thought it was funnier than Borat, although not many people seem to.
Go and see it you will be uncomfortable ocassionally but you will also laugh out loud.
Stupendously Funny! But Beware if you didn't like Borat...
Bruno pushes the boundaries and leaves you with your jaw down to the floor with his daring stunts and cringing interviews following a similar format to Borat.
Overall a great movie that I would say is just as good, if not better (but still not as legendary), as Borat.
