Universal says the final number is $1.6M, making Sacha Baron Cohen's Brüno the 2nd biggest opening day of the year, behind only Transformers 2. It's now the 3rd best comedy opening in Australia ever, trailing the 2004 Boxing Day opening of Meet the Fockers and last year's Sex And The City. I'll have full analysis later today.

Bully for Bruno, as Teddy Roosevelt would say.
I hope he banks the money and finds a new act, because he’s now too big to pull off his brand of ambush comedy again.
This movie is fantastically funny. Sasha is brilliant !!!
I can’t stand the guy and have never found him funny.
“I hope he banks the money and finds a new act, because he’s now too big to pull off his brand of ambush comedy again.”
You’d be surprised. There are still parts of America that have never heard of “Borat.”
im from australia and i saw it wednesday night, it was packed, the movie almost sold out and right through the movie the crowd were laughing. its def very funny and should get good word of mouth. i still like borat better though.
I was stoked to see this new movie and then the promotion just went on and on… flying asses… on and on… Bruno on a tank.
I feel like I’ve seen it and it sucks.
All in all, it’s a pass now.
And Furious D is right. Get a new act, man.
It’s rated MA15+ down here in Oz, which means if you’re under 15 a parent needs to accompany the teen. However, I saw it and was shocked it wasn’t an R18+. A couple of scenes are basically straight from a porno, and I would be shocked if the version that plays in the US shows the same scenes as down here. Some scenes were just too hardcore for US audiences.
gd beat me to it – MA15+ in Australia, similar to the R rating in the US except it’s 15 and under.
Funny watching people leave in a somewhat dazed fashion after the movie – not sure what to make of what they have just seen.
It had a great press screening. Literally non-stop laughter. The first 5-10 minutes are a litmus test for whether you can tolerate the remainder, because it only gets more graphic. Borat was mild stuff compared to Bruno.
