Bruno, the gay Austrian media celebrity, cares more about his image than what he does to offend anyone curious enough to listen to what he has to say. His love life centers around Diesel, a pint sized flight attendant with whom he practices all kinds of kinky sex. Bruno, covering the Milan fashion shows, decides to go in his Velcro costume that turns out to be the beginning of his own downfall among the fashionistas.
In order to reinvent himself, Bruno decides to settle in Los Angeles, where he figures he will be a celebrity. Well, unfortunately, Bruno manages to do everything wrong as he tries his hand in different projects. He even offends Paula Abdul when he invites her to his empty home where he asks her to sit on some Mexican workers' back because the lack of furniture. Bruno even infuriates a politician, Ron Paul, a Republican politician, mistaking him for Rue Paul, the famous gay icon.
In an attempt to reinvent himself, again, he goes to the Middle East and Africa, thinking that if Angelina and Madonna came back with black babies, so can he. The boy, Bruno thinks, will help him gain friends back in America, where he returns to try to restart his dying career. When the break he was expecting, the appearance on a Dallas talk show, further alienates him from possible audiences, he decides he must cure his gay image.
Going into the deep South, Bruno goes to get advice from a pastor, without any results. When he tries to surround himself with some red neck hunters, he realizes he needs more therapy to "ungay" himself. After trying everything, Bruno reincarnates into a wrestling personality that is pure macho. Unfortunately, some habits are hard to eradicate, so he finds himself booed in an arena when his loyal companion Lutz comes to Bruno in an unexpected finale.
Sacha Baron Cohen loves to provoke and audience. As he proved with his "Borat", he is in a mood to make fun. Mr. Cohen is not politically correct; he has a little bit for everyone. This funny man is irreverent, but he is able to capture a lot that is true in many of the themes he touches. Directed by Larry Charles who had already worked with the comedian in Borat.
Sacha Baron Cohen's Bruno is a talented man that shows his versatility for our enjoyment. Audiences should be forewarned that "Bruno" is not for everyone. Gustaf Hammersten is perfect as Lutz. One can only hope Mr. Cohen will not delay his next film.
