Sacha Baron Cohen (Brüno Gehard)
Virtually a retread of 2006's Borat, with Sacha Baron Cohen
giving his lesser known television character a big screen outing. It's more obvious with this film however that some of the scenes are staged. Works as a satire on how celebrity-obsessed people
will do anything to be famous & how conservative and strict the bible belt of America is. A good amount of funny scenes but too many leave a bad taste in the mouth.
5/10
