Movie Review: Tropic Thunder


Tropic Thunder

Loved it.

Ben Stiller returns to directing for the first time (I believe) since Zoolander (also one of my favorite films).

Tropic Thunder is very funny, mildly demented, a little crude, but totally fun. The story unfolds nicely and keep you laughing and totally entertained from start to finish. Everyone does a great job.

The stand out performance is Tom Cruise! He was hysterical! If they gave out Oscars for Comedy Tom would be nominated for this movie. I loved that they don’t even advertise him as being in the movie (smart) and then he delivers the best performance in the movie.

I definitely recommend this film, especially if you like Ben Stiller style (dark and slap-sticky) comedy.
9 out of 10
