Hilarious satire of the movie business
Tropic Thunder was a hilarious satire of the movie industry.<br /><br />This was a movie about making a Vietnam War movie. There was the famous method actor Kirk Lazarus played by Robert Downey Jr. There was the fading action star Tugg Speedman played by Ben Stiller. There’s the rap artist trying to get into the film industry Alpa Chino played by Brandon Jackson. There’s the drugged out movie star Jeff Portnoy played by Jack Black. There’s the movie agent Rick Peck played by Matthew McConaughey. There’s the over the top movie executive Les Grossman played by Tom Cruise and his yes man Rob played by Bill Hader.<br /><br />They get dropped off in the middle of the jungle and it’s very funny. For instance, Lazarus won’t go out of character and insults Alpa Chino for playing a black man. At one point they get into an argument and Kirk grabs Alpa and embraces him and recites the lyrics to the Good Times TV show theme song. The point overall was to make fun of the film business and they accomplished that. There are eccentric actors. Crazy movie executives and more.<br />C
