To combat the sense of loss I am feeling reading all the reviews of Delhi 6 (I'm just wondering why Abhishek can't seem to catch a break) I rented Tropic Thunder, to lift the spirits a bit. What I got was much more than I bargained for, 'cos this was something else!
Irreverant being the operative word, this movie is silly in parts, but the zany dialogue, a totally cuckoo Jack Black and an awesome awesome awesome Robery Downey Jr. make it a must watch! The dialogues are just ridiculously funny and I am actually reading them off IMBD right now. Don't expect depth from this film, but for what it is, it's far better than what one expects.
Downey Jr.... Oh my God! I was ecstatic as I saw just how fabulous he was. How lucky we are to have him back from what I can just refer to as the 'dark place'. This guy is TALENT! He's uproariously funny playing the actor who stays in character right up until the DVD commentary's out. He's crazy, crazy, CRAZY!!! I think he should win the Oscar. I know he won't but hell, I'm definately putting him on my list.
Did I mentioned Tom Cruise??? Oh my god, he is what delivers this film to the next level! I didn't know he had it in him, I gotta say... I guess half the impact of having him around would have been lost if it wasn't for the 'F' word, but still, he is IN FORM!
I can't wait to watch this movie again... You have to got to have this as part of your collection! Ben Stiller, you are the man!
