VIDEO: Barbara Walters Reviews 'Bruno'

by Celebuzz on Jul. 15, 2009 01:30 PM / 7 Comments

Did you wake up this morning hoping to hear a 79-year-old woman talk about giant, wagging genitals?

Then this is the story for you, friend.

Barbara Walters took some time on yesterday's episode of The View to deliver a review of Sacha Baron Cohen's comedic epic Bruno. And, well, she didn't exactly give it two thumbs up. But she did provide some comedy of her own.

While basically condemning the movie as pornographic and imploring her viewers not to take their kids to the flick (duh), Walters offered some specific tidbits about the movie and her take on it.

"I don't need to know how you are doing anal intercourse," Walters huffed.

We bet you don't, Babs.

To her credit, Walters did stay through the whole movie, despite (or perhaps because of?) the fact that it was so vile. Check out the video exchange below:

Isn't this the woman who decided to scratch her itch with a married senator for a few years back in the 70's - and then decided to tell the world about it in a book? Guess she became a prude as she got older...

Bruno doesn't get empathy from the interviewees the same way Borat did. Borat had lengthy encounters where people actually tried to teach him something. Bruno just had a bunch of repetitive encounters where he shocked and angered people. This cause each scene to be much shorter than in Borat and any smart person can tell this movie is a failure. Most people are probably afraid to say the movie sucks because they don't want to sound homophobic. These, of course, are the same people who would vote for Hitler just because everybody else was doing it.

Homophobia means "fear of". I don't fear gays. I also don't hate them because I voted against gay marriage. But they still march around with STOP THE HATE signs. It's just a disagreement.

I accept them - which means they don't have to do anything for my approval.

I'm just still waiting for the "proof" they are born that way.
