The Brothers Grimsby

 

The Brothers Grimsby

I really like Sacha Baron Cohen in interviews and all, but had never watched any of his movies. The Borat / Bruno kind of thing is on the precarious edge between hilarious and uncomfortable. So I decided to try with a fiction. To be fair, it's not a very good movie, and the laughs it gets are all offensive laughs (in other words the humour is only in the transgression) and the "message" feels absolutely fake. Still, I have to confess I laughed and there are moments that are simply so out there that I can safely say I'd never seen that on camera...
