Tropic Thunder
Fully Mental Jag-offs
Ben Stiller (There’s Something About Mary) leads a platoon of pampered movie stars who trade real bullets with a drug cartel while filming a flop ‘Nam flick called Tropic Thunder. Can director Steve Coogan (Hamlet 2) and salty vet Nick Nolte (48 Hrs.) whip a strung-out comedian (Jack Black), a closeted rapper (Brandon T. Jackson), a new recruit (Jay Baruchel), and a scene-stealing Method Actor (Robert Downey Jr) into fighting shape? Or is it left for Tom Cruise, disguised in a fat suit and bald cap, to once again save Hollywood? Enlist as a June Now Playing Patron to find all about this explosive 2008 comedy!
