Watchin DVD's

So as you know i've been very bored and since there is a very short list of things to do when your at home i decided to buy Tropic Thunder to watch at home but i bought Tropic Thunder 2 weeks ago and i finally saw it yesterday, yes, just yesterday and lemme say that Tropic Thunder lacked advertising here in Brunei so i did'nt know what to expect actually cause i've only scene the trailer once and the trailer left too much for the imagination... Anyways Tropic Thunder, it did'nt do it for me cause i find the comedy in this movie too, well, i dunno how to describe it, lets just say the comedy in this movie is too american and i find that some scenes are offending and contraversial, now, im very open minded, im not offended by it but i dont find it funny which is very confusing for me because rottentomatoes.com, a movie critique website gave Tropic Thunder an 84% Fresh rating... But hey, different people, different funny bones, so for Tropic Thunder, i dont love it but i dont hate it, but it depends on the watcher ok so i might not have liked it but other people might have loved it soo you should try and watch it and find out what your oppinion about this movie =)




Tropic Thunder plot (read from the back of the DVD box)= in the action-comedy "Tropic Thunder." Ben Stiller plays pampered action superstar Tugg Speedman, who is cast in the biggest, most expensive war movie ver produced. He sets out to southeast asia with a "who's who" of celebrity co-stars. They include Kirk Lazarus (Robert Downey JR), an intense, 3-time oscar-winning actor, Jeff Portnoy (Jack Black), star of the popular gross-out comedy franchise "The Fatties", multi-platinum hiphop-star-turned-enterpreneur-turned-actor Alpa Chino (Brandon T Jackson), and first-timer Kevin Sandusky (Jay Baruchel). Soon after the production begins the actors are thrown into a real-life situation and are out forced to become the fighting unit they are portraying in order to find a way out of the jungle in one piece.
