Critics Consensus

Crude and offensive, but with ample cultural insights and gut-busting laughs, Bruno is another outlandish and entertaining mockumentary from Sacha Baron Cohen.

Well, when it's funny, it is funny, but it is only intermittently funny... What I'm saying, I think, is that the joke has worn thin.

Newsweek

Baron Cohen is, without doubt, the ballsiest comic of his generation-and one of the brightest. But it's hard to imagine him taking the guerrilla shock tactics of Borat and Brüno any further.

I don't know if there are any comedians working today as fully dedicated to a joke as Sacha Baron Cohen.

Deep Focus Review

Funny how Brüno, the latest cinematic incarnation inspired by a character from Sacha Baron Cohen’s Da Ali G Show, proves to be daring, topical, and so revealing about American society, while also being so crude, outrageous, and shocking.

Rated: 3/4

For those fearing that fame may have dulled Baron Cohen's edge, I can tell you it hasn't.

Rated: 3/5

This second outing of in-your-face raunchiness is less unexpected as it is simply extreme.

Rated: 7/10

Hilarious movie. I love Sacha Baren Cohen's movies, especially those that are based on a character he created, such as Bruno

I must admit I did chuckle a few times at this but it definitely wouldn't be made fully like this today

I didn't like Borat, but I was a big Fan of Bruno! The plot was a little ridiculous, but the jokes and the humor was over the top!
