The style and direction of this film is fun to watch and you will likely forgive many of the problems with the prosaic storyline. Both Essenberg and Harrelson have some laugh-out-loud lines in the movie... and who doesn't like to see tons of zombie's get their heads blown apart?
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Mildy Amusing At Best

Sacha Baron Cohen fails to deliver on this one and leaves you with the feeling that he's mean-spirited and bereft of any insights into the people he tangles up in his warped storyline.
The theme seems little more than a chance for him to focus the camera on his private parts. It feels like he's the ignorant one rather than his victims, unlike when Borat rubbed the MidWest's nose in it's own repulsive prejudices. My girlfriend, who is African-American herself, was in hysterics as Bruno appears on a Texas-based chat show with an African-American audience as asingle parent of an adopted black baby, OJ. Overall I found the movie gratuitous and unpleasant without any really redeeming features. A miss.
