Review of Tropic Thunder (2008) by Jon C — 22 Sep 2012

I've enjoyed a lot of Ben Stiller's movies, so I had moderately high expectations for this one. For the most part it didn't disappoint, but it was much edgier than I expected it to be. The performances were great, especially the ones by Robert Downey Jr.

and Tom Cruise. And there were plenty of laughs, but many were of the awkward variety...the kind of laughs you feel guilty about. I'd recommend this, and in fact would probably see it again, because I'm sure I missed quite a bit the first time around.
