Can you feel the thunder? Tropic – thunder that is! Tropic Thunder was an entertaining and was also a very interesting concept for a blue ray dvd movie. The movie included notable actors Ben Stiller, Jack Black, Robert Downey Jr… and oh wait Tom Cruise? People going to watch a thriller will be disappointed, but those looking to see some comedy will find plenty of that.

The blu ray dvd 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 trapped in a real battle… even though they are totally unaware. It’s an unique concept which gets the group of actors in a ton of funny situations.

Tropic Thunder stops just short of going over the top with satirical humor that bites with a freshly acute sense of its own importance. The first hour of the film has an pulse and edge that makes it a joy to own, but even still as Ben Stiller tries to tie everthing together into a cohesive hole, the humor drains from the film, and it all turns a little old.

One of the best aspects of the blu-ray movie is Robert Downey Jr.’s character, Kirk Lazarus. In the fake movie, Kirk Lazarus is an method actor who likes to really delve into his characters, and this time he goes above and beyond and pulls a reverse-Michael Jackson, hilarious! Overall, this film is a must-see for comedy lovers, and is sure to be a top selling DVD.
