watching movies one cup at a time

Welcome to Ice Cubes In My Coffee :: The Caffeinated Movie Guide. I love movies and I have strong opinions about all of them. When they are great, they can change your life. And when they suck, you can at least have fun ripping them to shreds. I have seen a million movies and I have a bunch of movie facts and trivia stored up in my head - it's time to share. I'm going to be filling this movie guide with reviews on an ongoing basis, building up a large library of reviews so YOU, the movie-watching public, will know what movies are essential viewing and what movies you must avoid at all costs (hint: anything with the words "Starring Dane Cook"). I will also be posting some interesting articles and lists along the way as well. So grab a cup of joe and settle in for some movie talk!

Brüno

Starring: Sacha Baron Cohen
Director: Larry Charles
Year of Release: 2009
Rated 4 cups

Bruno is the next movie from Sacha Baron Cohen, the same performer that brought us Borat. Like Borat, Brüno is basically a series of outrageous situations where his character interacts with an unsuspecting public to illicit a reaction and hopefully cause a scene. This time instead of a foreign journalist, it’s a gay fashion “expert” let loose on models, hunters, soldiers, swingers, Hollywood, and heterosexuals in general. This is definitely low brow, often gross humor. But I have to admit I laughed out loud at least 3 times. He just has a way of making these ridiculous situations humorous. It’s just so crazy you have to laugh and laugh at the poor people caught in the middle trying to make sense of it. It’s crazy and crude, but it definitely has it’s moments where it connects. If you laughed at Borat, you will laugh at this.
