Movie: Bruno vs. Borat

Whenever I watch a movie with Sacha Cohen (not to be confused with Sasha Cohen, which I did, but it turns out Sasha is a figure skater where Sacha is not)  -- either Bruno or Borat -- I wonder many things:
     What in the movie was set-up vs. what wasn't
     Does he stay in character even when the cameras aren't rolling
     How does his wife put up with him and just how mentally deranged is this guy.
But he could be a Howard Stern type person:  obnoxious for the job and at home a pussycat.  Who knows.

Both movies are worth seeing, but Borat is much, much better and funnier.  Borat gives us a character that is naive and likable, whereas there is not much to like about the self-centered, worldly-wise Bruno.
