Tropic Thunder
27 January 2024
Tropic Thunder is an interesting take on the war genre. It involves actors going to Vietnam to record a movie about the Vietnam War and ended up actually experiencing something like the Vietnam War (not just acting).

I feel like this does show RDJ's acting capabilities. He does play a black character in live action in this movie. Playing a character with a different skin color seems harder in live action than animation, with live action has the physical aspect of it. I feel like that does show how good RDJ is as an actor.

I feel like this movie is built a little more on the action and comedy than the story. I feel like some things goes unexplained. It does not explain why there's a war in the first place.

Overall, I find the movie alright. When it comes to visuals and acting, it's good. When it comes to story, it's alright and could be better.
