Sachon Baron Cohen’s highly anticipated–highly controversial–new film “Bruno” follows the same vein as the 2006 hit “Borat.” Written by both Cohen and Anthony Hines, the movie relies entirely on its ability to shock its audience into laughter. For me, this was successful.
The movie is based on Cohen’s alternative personality …

I’m not usually a huge fan of romantic comedies. They’re OK but I get bored with them quickly because they usually have the same basic plot.

Now, after …
