Brüno (2009)

If you thought Borat was offensive, or even borderline offensive, your innocence will surely be stolen after watching Bruno. Don't make the mistake of going in thinking you'll be seeing another spoof poking fun at dumb Americans. There's a bit of that, but most of the film is simply an exercise in how much gay material can be squeezed into an R rated film. Answer: A butt load. Enough to make the scariest drag queen blush.

I don't mind being shocked, as long as it comes with a healthy dose of entertainment as well. This suffers from "Pink Flamingos" Syndrome--more shocking than entertaining.

Rating: D-
