Tropic Thunder

 Tropic Thunder – Hollywood’s most explosive comedy goes off the rails… and into the jungle.
When a group of self-absorbed actors set out to film an over-the-top Vietnam War epic, they have no idea the chaos that awaits. Dropped into a real-life combat zone by a frustrated director, these prima donnas—including a fading action star, a drugged-up comedian, and a method actor who takes “immersive” to a whole new level—must survive the jungle, the enemy, and each other.

What follows is a deliriously unhinged satire of Hollywood egos, blockbuster excess, and the absurd lengths actors will go for “authenticity.” With a cast that includes Ben Stiller, Jack Black, and Robert Downey Jr. in one of the boldest performances ever put on screen, Tropic Thunder is part war movie, part roast, and all-out mayhem.
