The Surprising Disappointment of 'Bruno'new
Borat offended us with an ignorance so profound the ignorant found it sympathetic, inspiring them to reveal their prejudice. Bruno, on the other hand, is an archly superior fashionista nearly equal in stupidity to Borat but nowhere near as sweet.

Sacha Baron Cohen Makes Funny, But Can't Get His Story Straight in 'Bruno'
Sacha Baron Cohen's follow-up to the hilarious Borat provokes half as many laughs in a seemingly less improvised comedy that goes twice again as far as Borat in goosing sexual sight gags designed to make even the most numb audience members blanch.

Kazakh Attacknew
Borat serves up some of the biggest, basest laughs of the year -- still, I can't help thinking I'd rather just watch Da Ali G Show for two hours.

International Incident
The true beauty of what Sacha Baron Cohen does, regardless of the character he plays, lies in his ability to strip away the veneer and get to the real.
