Bruno, you're no Borat

Unfair to be sure, but because everyone is going to compare Sacha
Baron Cohen's "Bruno" to his insanely funny "Borat," let's be
honest: While pushing the PC envelope in new and imaginative ways
as well as the MPAA's R rating, especially insofar as the male
member is concerned, "Bruno" is only intermittently funny and all
too often the "ambushes" of celebrities and civilians look staged.
The movie is even a tad -- dare we say it? -- tedious.
