The movie follows a group of prima donna actors who are making a fictional Vietnam War film. When their frustrated director decides to drop them in the middle of a jungle, they are forced to become the soldiers they are portraying.
Tropic Thunder is an easy film to enjoy. It appeals to the basest levels of humour without patronising its audience, while pricking the pomposity of the movie industry without going too 'meta' - this is far from self-fellation.
Some of it is very funny, some of it is too broad.

Cruise and particularly Downey are something to behold: They give this Thunder its lightning.
