Why people love it

People revisit Brüno for the same reason it broke through in 2009: clear stakes, memorable faces, and a comedy rhythm that doesn't stall in the middle. Larry Charles keeps the ensemble pointed in one direction. The film leans hard into its core genre, which is exactly what fans say they wanted more of from blockbusters in that era.
