My favorite movie-going experience: I saw Brüno in a conservative town. Many people there knew nothing about the movie other than the fact that this was the same guy who made Borat. Within a few minutes, people were evacuating the theatre as if it were on fire.

Aww man, they don't seem to be there for some reason. We definitely had a back and forth for a couple of posts but I can't find it :\

This was my review:

I don't write many reviews but I feel compelled to have this on the record, for whatever that's worth, in the hopes of having other people keep a possibly useful 90 minutes of their life intact.

This was the worst thing I have ever seen committed to film or kilobyte. Not "worst" as in "most shocking" or "most disgusting" or "most horrific". Worst as in, "there is truly nothing to recommend about this film."

There is no story. Nothing. It's just appears to be an idea some guy had and he hired a camera to film the idea and then kind of just finished up when the rental was due back.

There is no acting to speak of. Or, I guess you could say there is overacting. Or repetitive acting (hit button A to swing tyre crowbar). It's atrocious. Some good flopping around on the floor is what I would say if I was being generous, but I'm not.

There is no actual dialogue to speak of. Maybe 10 lines in the entire film. This is not helped by the lack of acting.

The cinematography is bland. The staging is terrible. The post fx (nice rain, is that a bad After Effects plug-in I see?) are crap. The sound is boring.

I won't give away the biggest and most trite BS in the thing. I hope you won't find out for yourself, by actually watching the movie, but if you do, I dare you not to shout "F**K OFF!" at the screen at the end. You've been warned.

Actually I take back what I said earlier. This is probably the most offensive movie I have ever seen, just not in the way you are thinking. I am offended it was made and people spent time and energy on it.
