`Bruno` —Total Comedy

     Some comments to this film:

     1)Wow, every writer is tripping over themself to tell us how well this movie will perform. I don’t know one single person who has expressed a desire to see this–unlike Transformers, where someone asks every other day if I have seen it yet. Will be interesting to see what happens.

     2)Cohen is brilliant as he was as Ali G and Borat. Hard to believe its that same actor.

     3)Transformers is such a low class movie, it insults public’s intelliennce.Transformers is such a low class movie, it insults public’s intelliennce.

     4)Transformers can not even be called a “movie”.

     Moviegoers are being offered lots of laughs at domestic multiplexes this weekend, with a pair of comedies targeting distinct audiences unspooling wide Friday.

     Universal opens Sacha Baron Cohen’s R-rated “Bruno,” and execs should be high-fiving each other after a solid first frame likely to produce $30 million-plus through Sunday. Fox, which passed on releasing “Bruno” over cost concerns despite success with 2006’s “Borat,” debuts the Chris Columbus-directed high school comedy “I Love You, Beth Cooper.”

     But Fox’s prospects for a lucrative session reside more with the sophomore session of its 3D animated threequel “Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs.” Even a 60% drop from its first weekend would produce a nifty $20 million or so this frame.
