I had a smile from start to finish... The movie wasn't finished yet and still in development but the vibe was spectacular. Most would think all of these actors on one screen would kill it but these actors work in perfect harmony. There are tons of surprises on all kinds of levels that you'll be laughing all the way through the movie and the credits. If you only goto the movies for outstanding movies then add this to the list.

Not entirely perfect either. The movie has its funny moments, but there are times when it felt the direction didn't know where to go. Was this going to be an action movie, or is it a comedy. The theater was full and it helped, thank god nobody used their cellphones, so freaking annoying! If you're a fan of either Stiller, Black, or Downey Jr. see it. Out of all of the performances, I liked Downey's the best. Black would be a close second.

i'm not a big fan of ben stiller.. liked robert downey jr. only after iron man... but i did like jack black so i gave it a chance. i found myself literally laughing out loud uncontrollably to the point where i almost peed my pants. if that's not indicative of a good movie, i don't know what is. i'm glad my roommates haven't seen it because i would gladly see it again.

Right from the introduction (which begins without warning), Tropic Thunder is unpredictable humor that never loses its freshness. The plot is perfect for comedic action, and all of the actors are in top form, notably Robert Downey Jr. and Tom Cruise. The sarcastic, crass humor is so lightning fast that it is actually hard to keep up. I expect that repeat viewings will be just as entertaining as the first. Highly recommended!

I didn't think it was possible to upstage Ben Stiller in his own movie, but Robert Downey, Jr., playing an Aussie actor who can't get out of his "black soldier" character, does just that. Absolutely hilarious. Oh and be sure to get to the theatre on time. The first few minutes are HILARIOUS!!
