Brüno

About This Movie

Brüno is kind of a wild ride. Larry Charles directs Sacha Baron Cohen in this absurdly outrageous comedy that pushes boundaries. You know, it's not just about shock value; there's this biting social commentary woven into the fabric of the film. The pacing is frenetic, and it has these moments that leave you cringing but laughing at the same time. Cohen's performance is fearless—his portrayal of a flamboyant Austrian reporter really digs into the absurdity of fame and sexuality. I appreciate how the film mixes scripted comedy with real-life interactions, making for some painfully hilarious and awkward moments. It’s definitely not for everyone, but there's something uniquely provocative about it that sticks with you.

Released on July 10, 2009, in the USA. · Shot with a mix of scripted scenes and real interactions. · Runtime: 83 minutes, with a mix of R-rated content. · Produced by Four By Two Films and Universal Pictures.
