People going to watch a thriller dvd will be unhappy
Thursday, October 2nd, 2008You can hear the thunder? Tropic - thunder that is! Tropic Thunder was an entertaining and was also a very interesting concept for a buy dvd movie. The dvd included notable actors Ben Stiller, Jack Black, Robert Downey Jr… and get this Tom Cruise? If you think you were going to see a thriller will be disappointed, but if you were looking to have some laughs will find a ton of that.
The dvd movies itself is about a bunch of actors in a thriller war movie who are sent into the jungle to get more of a feel for their parts, but end up getting caught in a real battle… unbeknownst to them. It’s a great idea which gets the group of actors in a ton of crazy situations.
Tropic Thunder stops just shy of going over the top with satirical humor that bites with a freshly acute sense of its own relevancy. The first section of the dvd has an pulse and edge that makes it a joy to own, but even still as Ben Stiller attempts to tie it all together into a cohesive hole, the humor drains from the film, and it all becomes a little tiresome.
One of the best aspects of the buy dvd movie is Robert Downey Jr.’s character, Kirk Lazarus. In the actual movie, Kirk Lazarus is an method actor who likes to really delve into his characters, and this time he goes overboard and pulls a reverse-Michael Jackson, funny! Overall, this movie is a must-see for comedy lovers, and is sure to be a top selling DVD.
