SUMMARY: BRÜNO is an extremely pornographic comedy starring Sacha Baron Cohen as Brüno, an alleged homosexual fashion designer from Austria who goes to America to try to become a famous celebrity. BRÜNO is an episodic and mindlessly pornographic pagan comedy full of graphic sex scenes, including scenes of homosexual perversions, extensive shots of extreme nudity, foul language, and provocative, sometimes racist, attacks on real Christians, Orthodox Jews, African Americans, and American soldiers.
IN BRIEF:
BRÜNO is an extremely pornographic comedy starring Sacha Baron Cohen as Brüno, a homosexual fashion designer from Austria. Brüno loses his German TV show and his homosexual lover/assistant. He eventually decides to go to America to become a celebrity. Lutz, his former assistant's assistant follows him there because Lutz wants to become his new homosexual lover. To become famous, Brüno tries (among other things) acting, doing a reality television show, running a modeling/acting agency, and solving the Mideast Crisis. Only Lutz, however, has the real answer to Brüno's insatiable lust for fame.
BRÜNO is an episodic, mindlessly pornographic pagan comedy. It is full of graphic depictions of homosexual sexual perversions and even copulating men and women. It also has excessive full frontal nudity, including some extended shots in close-up. In effect, the filmmakers, including Cohen, are just trying to be as outrageous, offensive and pornographic as they can be in order to get attention. They also promote a radical homosexual agenda in their movie. This agenda includes some racist attacks on African Americans, Orthodox Jews and Christians, as well as positive comments about Adolph Hitler. Please stop people from seeing this bigoted filth.
