Is it just me, or does this look good?
I used to be a fan of Guy Ritchie, loving both “Lock, Stock,” and “Snatch,” but felt he kind of lost the plot with “Swept Away,” and “Revolver.” I haven’t even bothered seeing “Rocknrolla,” but I’m sure I will at some point. So the idea of letting [...]

Ben Stiller’s second directorial effort is a kitchen-sink affair, no joke is to low, no explosion is too big. Sending up actors and their craft, as well as the ridiculousness seemingly inherent in filmmaking, ‘Tropic Thunder,’ is an assault on the senses that, at the same time, is kinda boring in some spots.
