Tropic Thunder

Like 'Apocalypse Now', only with more farting.

...everyone in the film goes for the most outrageous and infectiously laughable take on the material.

...considerably better than Stiller’s previous film, “Zoolander” (2001). It’s the kind of summer comedy that rolls in, makes a lot of people laugh and rolls on to video.

Instead of entering the jungle to find the heart of darkness, Stiller (the director, co-star, and co-writer of Tropic Thunder) goes in to take aim at the Achilles' heel of Hollywood: its utter pomposity and self-importance.
