Bruno wang in high-def! SOOOOOOO THERE!!!!

This was ok, just not as good as Borat. I have to say, The way Bruno was presented, it seemed they went a bit too far just to get people who would otherwise probably not have a problem with homosexuals uptight and uncomfortable. I guess that was the idea, but you really have to feel bad for some of those people.

So, I'm assuming the 26 extra minutes should include the LaToya Jackson prank that reportedly got cut, right after Michael Jackson died?

I thought it was funny but not as funny as "Borat." Either way PASS.

Many people dont know this though Sacha Baron Cohen is a smart guy. He is way more intelligent than people think. I will pick this up definitely on Blu-Ray. 2 Disc. Dont pick up on 1 Disc.

That is such a Samantha thing to do.

Might give it another shot. Rental only.

I thought it was just as good as Borat. It just wasn't as original. Then again, I always thought Borat was really overrated.

There's a reason this one tanked after its opening weekend. It's just not very funny and too much of it is half-scripted (the dominatrix at the sex club and some other scenes are clearly staged for all participants).  The Bruno character is also unappealing and offensive, and not because of him being gay - he's just rude and obnoxious.  On the Da Ali G show, his character was somewhat funny, but in the film, they amped up his obnoxious quotient so much that you actually feel bad for the innocent people subjected to him - instead of laughing at them.  That's not good for a 'comedy' unless its a feel-bad comedy.

I must admit there were a few laughs along the way, but this DVD will surely be in the $1 bins really quick, and at $30 retail for the standard edition, Universal knows this as well and is obviously trying to make as much money as quick as possible before the floor collapses.

But then again I thought Borat was bad too....

That is such a Samantha thing to saw. Than again, some people can't appreciate good comedy. I can see you were "Offended" by it.

Yeh it was just kind of lame. I think the problem is that this "format" so to speak is wearing off. The "reality" and shock of it all. Its just getting stupid. Even borat was just mildly funny. Too often it went for cheap laughs, but we could at least have symhpathy for borat. Bruno was just damn annoying.

Full details added...

Borat was a likeable character.  Bruno wasn't portrayed as someone I'd want to watch for 90 minutes in any way.  Didn't hear anyone say anything good about this film.  If I see it, it'll be when it's free on terrestrial TV.  I won't pay anything to see it, including the miniscule risk of being caught downloading it illegally.

This was one of those comedies where when the jokes hit, it was achingly funny to the point where i had a headache from laughing so much. When the jokes misfired, it was painfully unfunny. I enjoyed it for the most part, not sure how it'll play a 2nd time though.

Never like Borat, so won't be buying this.

all you people keep saying is that this isn't nearly as funny as Borat, and, I didn't care much for that. So, I probably will hate this most definitely. Anyway, I'm not a bot, I'm a free thinker, so, I'll still give it a go and see for myself.
