Obnoxious but mostly brilliant.

Rating: 9/10 (4 August 2009)

Tropic Thunder has a good story idea and plot. The film is sometimes obnoxious, mostly because of Jack Black, of course. Black is funny in this film, but he is very gross also. The film is hilarious, but obnoxious at times. The Plot: All of these girly-ish actors filming a war movie, are sent out to an actual war-zone, and are still under the impression that they are filming. Ben Stiller plays the lead character Tugg. Who I actually think could pull off a really stupid person. Robert Downey Jr. had his best year ever last year. With the amazing and awesome Iron Man and his Oscar nomination for Tropic Thunder as an Australian actor who did a reverse Michael Jackson procedure. He went black. Tropic Thunder is a hilarious film. It is also partially an action film towards the end of the movie. Tropic Thunder is offensive, gross at times, and incredibly funny. I liked every character in the film, besides Jack Black's character. Black plays Jeff Portnoy, who is kind've an Eddie Murphey type actor. I mean that because he's in movies like The Nutty Professor. Tropic Thunder is an awesome comedy. That is far from disappointing and has in your face action. Tropic Thunder will blow your mind.
