Behind the Screen: Bruno

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

I will probably end up watching this, even if it is a bit out in left field. So far it is rocking the critics with an86% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes...

I love this trailer! OF COURSE! How could I forget that a backwards kick is the perfect way to fend off sex toys?! Haha The multiple underwear gag reminds me of Arrested Development and how Tobias always has to wear cut-offs. I always liked his Bruno character better than Borat so I am excited for the movie to be coming out soon.

It looks hilarious. There been a good amount of coverage, publicity, and marketing. I think it will succeed.

Tomatoes scoring went down to 80%, but I'm still there. I can't wait to see it...might even go on opening night.

I gotta check this out. I want to see if I'll like the character "Bruno" better than Borat and Ali G.

Bruno had a FB status saying that the movie opens Thurs at Midnight and that he'd be at a theater in NYC for the premiere. Didn't say which theater though!

I was disappointed. :(. It had the same outrageous, disgusting awkward humor that was in Borat, that I loved. I don't know why though, I just didn't like it as much. I mean there were some hilarious moments, of course. I am not sure who this film is targeting. I went with a group of my buddies and I can see us being the only ones who liked it, even though some felt it was grossly "****" and grossed them out. As a date movie it is awkward, for girls it is too disgusting, and older people wont enjoy it.

Why is it too disgusting for girls? Are you saying that we can't have a sick sense of humor too? Because I am pretty sure I can get just as dirty as the majority of my guys friends if need be! Your friends did know Bruno is a gay fashion reporter who wants to be the most famous Austrian next to Hitler right? Haven't seen it yet though, but I am sure I will love it. :)

Someone called this movie both disgusting and genius. I agree whole heartedly. :) I'm a girl and I loved it. It's def out in left field. It's not a film for the conservative mind.

I liked it a lot! I didnt like it as much as Borat...but it's still def worth seeing in the theater. It was disgusting and had tons of male full frontal but it was hilarioussss

I didn't really enjoy Borat, but the Bruno preview seemed hilarious, so I saw it last night. I was kind of dissappointed overall. Iim fine with full frontal nudity, but having just a ***** dangling on screen for 5 seconds was a bit much, along with the swingers party. Maybe I don't get his humor?But overall the movie wasn't too funny, in my opinion. I did laugh at some parts, because of its ridiculousness. I don't laugh a lot in movies so maybe I came in with the expectations of cracking up. Like I said, I might not understand his humor, but people who like him and liked Borat, will like this movie.
