Review:

Depressingly bad. It lacks any subtlety - he hits you over the head (several times) with every 'joke'.
A shame as Bruno's previous incarnation (with short hair) was on occasion very funny.

I can't believe he missed the opportunity to lampoon the overblown & highly pretentious fashion world and 
instead took on the easiest of easy targets (the American working classes). The whole thing felt dumbed down 
for the US market - no, I take that back - I meant dumbed down for the UK market - as everyone was laughing their
stupid f*cking heads off where I saw it.
