I absolutely loved Borat. It’s actually one of only 3 movies I’ve ever given a 10/10 to. I know people in general didn’t dig it as much as I did, but for me it was a brilliant combination of social observation, commentary and complete hilarity all rolled into one. I personally can’t remember ever laughing so hard as I did in the infamous hotel room fight scene.
That being said, I have almost ZERO interest in seeing Bruno. Why? Because to me it just seems like Borat with a different accent. From everything I’ve seen this is just the exact same movie, only he’s a different character, and as great as I thought Borat was, it’s a shtick that can lose its novelty pretty damn fast. Who knows, maybe I’ll end up loving it, but for now I remain very skeptical.
For now, the first official Bruno poster has been released. I actually dig it… I really like the line on the poster too:
