Probably one of the best comedys of all time. And the best critical commentary of Hollywood ever done in a movie.

He has the bad luck of competing against Heath Ledger in THE DARK KNIGHT that same year. Here is an incredible double irony with that. Firstly, RDJ (who played an Australian) lost his TROPIC THUNDER nomination to an actual Australian (Heath Ledger).

I watch this movie reaction among the reaction crowd a lot just to see how fast they clock Tom Cruise. I'd like to say that when I saw it in theaters I caught on fast. Nope. It wasn't until he was dancing in the credits and his name came up that I realized it. Cruise has an untapped side for humor, and we as an audience for three decades were denied that aspect of his skills. He's quite good at being funny, and aside from his one role momentarily in Austin Powers, we never get to see him in a comedy. Robbed.

[@DonZa-n6z]

Pudgey got it from the get go

[@JasonHubsch]

One thing people miss in this a lot: Tugg's agent ACCEPTED the deal from Les Grossman, got the G5 airplane.... and then flew it to go rescue him. That's why he runs out of nowhere (he presumably landed it nearby), then runs back into the woods (back to his airplane), and is then shown flying in the jet (he wouldn't have gotten it). I think it's a great subtle touch in this film.

[@lacko623]

It's like he didn't really have to choose 😄 Took the jet and the money, then went to save is friend anyway. Still, a nice touch
