"Bruno" brings Sacha Baron Cohen's über-gay Austrian fashionist character to Hollywood in search of global celebrity. Instead he finds bigotry, intolerance, stupidity — and lots of hilarity along the way.
Comic film Bruno has entered the UK and Ireland box office at number one, taking £4.9m in its opening weekend.


The movie, starring Sacha Baron Cohen as the outrageous Austrian fashion reporter, knocked Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs from the top spot.
The only other new entry was Bollywood film Shortkut, which debuted at 10, just behind Indian movie Kambakkhtat Ishq, which slipped two places.
The top five films, incuding Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen at three, bachelor caper The Hangover in fourth spot and Public Enemies at five, each made in excess of £1m.

As if the culture of celebrity worship hasn't had enough of a workout in the wake of the Michael Jackson brouhaha, along comes "Brüno," another call study of outrageous human behavior and the pathology of a fame-obsessed society
“Bruno” has beaten “Borat” at the box office. The fabulous fashionist scored a $30.4 million debut as of Saturday, a more impressive take than Sacha Baron Cohens other social satire, which opened to $26.5 million in November 2006. Of course, “Borat” also went on to take an estimated $128.5 million. Moving from Friday night sales to Saturday night, “Bruno” saw box office receipts decline by 39%.

“Bruno” is at the center of more than just a shaky box office performance. The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation has criticized the film for “decreasing the public’s comfort with gay people” by “reinforcing some damaging, hurtful stereotypes.”

According to Deadline Hollywood Daily, GLAAD president Jarrett Barrios saw the film on Friday and found his worst fears confirmed. “Unfortunately, the scenes that we had the biggest concerns about remained in the film,” Barrios said. “[This movie doesn't] help America understand the hundreds of thousands of gay families who get up every day, do the carpool then rush home to make dinner and be with their children.”
