My #1 Favorite Film of All Time!

Rating: 10/10 (25 May 2013)

Watched movie a dozen times. 1st time, on a date's couch. Needless to say, I wasn't impressed and did not make it through the movie. The lasting impression of the movie was blah. A year later, I was gifted the DVD; I humbly find it pure genius. With the exception of T.C. and Nolte, the performances are each actor's best and among T.C.'s and Nolte's best. Making fun of Hollywood via war film satire (think Platoon meets Monty Python) should, at minimum, interest the socially conscious. The delivery should tickle the funny bone of any person with a pulse. Along with most viewers, I was astonished at what R.D.J. did. I think Downey Jr.'s role stole the show. He played an Aussie actor playing an African-American role. Later, we get treated with a 3rd layer, albeit briefly. R.D.J.'S PERFORMANCE WAS ABOVE THOSE OF MOST GUYS WHO HAVE AN Oscar ON DISPLAY FOR BEST-ACTOR. Period. I think the film is so wonderful in part thanks to the character depth and development being superior to that of those in any comedy. For that, T.T. is my favorite flick regardless of genre, and why the movie seems like a new film almost every time I press play. Note: the commentary is worth watching. Lazerus stay's true to his word on dropping character!
