Tropic Thunder
Tropic Thunder
Regisseur Cockburn hat sich für seinen neuesten Film, das teuerste Vietnam-Drama aller Zeiten, die bestbezahlten Schauspieler gesichert, u. a. den blasierten Superstar Speedman, den verweichlichten Komiker Portnoy und den Charakterstar Lazarus. Um nach anfänglichen Schwierigkeiten optimale Ergebnisse zu erzielen, will Cockburn den Film fortan im Guerilla-Stil mit versteckten Kameras drehen. Deshalb glaubt die Schauspieler-Gruppe auch dann noch, die Kameras würden laufen, als sie im Dschungel von Drogengangstern aufgespürt werden.

Tropic Thunder was pure fun from start to finish.
The film’s mix of outrageous satire, over the top performances and wild action made it stand out as one of the boldest comedies of its time. It poked fun at Hollywood itself, turning the chaos of a movie set into a battlefield of egos and absurdity.
One of the highlights for me was Les Grossman. His explosive energy, ridiculous dance moves and foul mouthed tirades stole every scene he was in.
It was the kind of character you don’t expect but end up loving because of how completely unhinged and hilarious he is.
By the time the credits rolled, I felt like I’d been on a wild ride, laughing at the absurdity while appreciating how sharp the satire was. It’s a film that doesn’t hold back and that’s exactly what makes it so memorable.
