Bruno 5

This is a film that raises legitimate questions about the limits of "reality" television and films, and to what degree it's really acceptable to bait people for laughs. Cohen, as Bruno, stages a faux TV show and exposes the utter hypocrisy of two fashion pundits, likely damaging or destroying their careers in the process. He parades a raunchy charicture of a rabbi's vestments in front of real rabbis in Israel and has to run for his life. He brings a black child out in front of a mostly black audience, and claims he went to Africa and traded him for an ipod, sending everyone into a frenzy. How much further can this brand of comedy go before it becomes outright cruel and exploitative, or gets seriously dangerous?

Still, if laughing at Ron Paul's look of utter terror as Bruno attempts to seduce him make me a bad person, then I must admit I'm a very bad person.
