Fans of "Da Ali G" show will find Bruno to be a familiar character, but 'Bruno' lacks the element that made it funny on Da Ali G show. Instead of Bruno's gayness being implied, the whole movie consists of penis after penis, and ass after ass being flashed in front of the audience, to the point of being nauseating. This movie is 5% of the type of humor that made Borat funny, and 95% shock humor. 'Bruno' had many funny scenes, such as scenes with Paula Abdul, and Ron Paul. On the other hand, scenes such as those at the "Swingers Club" played out like some sick porno movie and were barely tolerable to completely intolerable. I don't know why they bothered, as almost everybody in the theatre was turning away from the nauseating scenes playing out before them. Similar to Borat, Bruno takes on bigoted rednecks and the overly religious. The setttings are also more diverse than that of Borat, making the first half of this film more interesting. On the otherhand, the last half of this film borders being unwatchable because of the nudity. A less funny, more disgusting version of Borat, basically.
