What´s the plot?
A group of prima donna actors are left in the jungle to fend for themselves in this hilarious new action comedy - ‘Tropic Thunder’.

A who’s who of the world’s best actors are hired to star in the most expensive war film ever made. When film costs balloon, three time Oscar winning actor Kirk Lazarus (Robert Downey Jr), gross out comedian Jeff Portnoy (Jack Black) and all star action hero Tugg Speedman (Ben Stiller) are airlifted into the jungle of South East Asia and unknowingly encounter the bad guys in a real life war zone.

With no real ammunition, oversized egos and expert guerrillas out to kill them, will they ever get back home?

If you liked ‘Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story’ and ‘Apocalypse Now’ you’ll love ‘Tropic Thunder’.

I went to this film with some reservations after reading some reviews, but it was awesome, tom cruise was quality as Len Grossman, stole the show, downey jnr was brilliant as was stiller and Black.

If you want a film with loads of laughs go see this. the scenes with downey jnr are superb, he really gets into character although his not really that character.

I wasn't sure what to expect when watching the trailor and reading the reviews, but i was more than happy when the film got going.
Black, brilliantly playing the comedian drug addict really opened up.
I did know what to make of it at first, but can say its definatly worth 4 stars...
