Caitlin's Favorite Movies
Brüno (Bruno)

Without a doubt this is Sacha Baron Cohen's most shocking, offensive and controversial film yet, as well as the rudest (but in a very funny way.) And did I mention how hilarious it was? Maybe even funnier than Borat, although it's difficult to choose, as what could possibly be funnier than Borat? But I think this might've topped it, as the controversy and shock itself is what highly contributed to its hilariousness. Not recommended to all of course, but if you're a fan of Brüno already from Da Ali G Show, or of Sacha Baron Cohen's work, then it is definitely a must-see. I was extremely excited to finally see this and am definitely not disappointed. To me, this is what shocking and satirical comedy is all about, and I think Sacha is not only a comedic genius for it, but also completely daring to ever even attempt something like this. I hope he continues.

This movie was horrible.. NOT! Infact, I'd say it was the funniest movie I've ever seen. It's shocking, offensive, satirical, but also quite clever as well. I've never laughed as hard as I did when watching this, even after seeing it many times. I find myself re-winding scenes over and over, and finding them funnier each time, as well as still laughing even after the movie is over. I honestly found it hard to breathe when watching this. Sacha Baron Cohen is a comic genius, and a great actor too.
