Directed by Ben Stiller, Tropic Thunder remains one of the most daring comedies of the 21st century. It follows a group of self-absorbed actors shooting a big-budget war movie who are dropped into a real jungle and forced to become the soldiers they are playing.
Ben Stiller (Tugg Speedman), Jack Black (Jeff Portnoy), Robert Downey Jr. (Kirk Lazarus), Brandon T. Jackson (Alpa Chino), Jay Baruchel (Kevin Sandusky), and Tom Cruise (Les Grossman). Theatrical Rating:
Tropic Thunder (2008): Evaluating the Impact, Controversies, and Legacy of a Modern Satire
