Brüno

I saw Brüno this week. It was as offensive as one might expect, with the bonus of being an appalling presentation of Americans as greedy, baby-exploiting, homophobic idiots. I'm surprised that Sacha Baron Cohen hasn't been hurt doing one of these stunts yet. (Tank Riot wondered the same thing.) At times it was uncomfortable merely to watch, so I can't imagine how horrifically uncomfortable the unknowing rubes he tricked into the scenarios felt.

My advice? Go re-watch The Matrix instead.
