Ich vas wrong when I thought that Sacha Baron Cohen’s camp crusader, Bruno, would be a slice of cringe-worthy crap.

The Cambridge educated comedian is back on form after Borat and causes a storm of trouble as a gay Austrian fashionista. Censors in the US are not amused and consider his homosexual humour to be ‘over the line’.

So far they’ve rated Bruno NC-17, which means the film may not see a commercial release but is guaranteed to be good.

Watch Cohen defend himself from dildos, adopt an African child (he names him OJ) and turn a fashion show into a spectacle as he dons a velcro jumpsuit. He manipulates a pack of gun-toting, gay-hating rednecks, causes outrage in a room full of fat black women and turns up to army training clad in Dolce & Gabbana. Shock, outrage and public anal sex comes to silver screen along with another stupid accent that will last for years.

As expected, the Ali G actor never misses a chance to poke fun at his own religion and gets a pack of orthodox Jews to chase him down the street. Sacha Baron Cohen is an international pariah once again, Don’t miss him.
