Hilarious, Stiller does a great job of acting and directing

Rating: 8/10 (7 December 2008)

Tropic Thunder is the funniest movie I've seen in years. It stars Ben Stiller as Tugg Speedman, Robert Downey, Jr. as Kirk Lazarus, and a perfectly fun star cast.
It starts off with trailers of movies, and quickly begins to become funnier as we enter the real movie with a filming of the real war movie, Tropic Thunder. They then go to Vietnam to film it, due to conflicts between Lazarus (Downey) and Speedman (Stiller). The funniest part of this movie is Jeff Portnoy (Jack Black), the heroin addicted movie actor who starred in "The Fatties".
I'd love to give more away, but you'll just have to watch the movie for yourselves.
