Controversial but exceptional comedy!

Rating: 9/10 (26 August 2008)

Ben Stiller has done it again with this comedy, he has once again moved to the top of the comedy heap. This movie will become a cult classic it is that good. I have read several of the reviews for this movie some good some bad. It's usually that way for exceptional and groundbreaking movies, some people love them some hate them. This comedy makes fun of a lot of things such as washed up actors that appear in really bad movies, and actors that have to prove that they are great actors by playing a mentally challenged person, and war movies that try to be "so realistic". In the end people should wise up and realize that at the core this is a spoof on Hollywood, it is not trying to make fun of blacks or mentally challenged people, it's poking fun at Hollywoods portrayal of them. Example: In the 50's white guys used to play Native Indian roles in Western's. That has since stopped and Natives are used in Native roles as it should be. So why do Hollywood actors and critics and the public still think that it's OK to have the mentally challenged portrayed by normal average people trying to prove that they are great actors. Some have even won Oscars for their performances, this movie pokes fun at that!! Jack Black, Downy, Cruise, and Stiller give great performances and the laughs never stop coming.
