TROPIC THUNDER (2008) MOVIE REACTION - WE LAUGHED SO HARD! FIRST TIME WATCHING - REVIEW
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 มิ.ย. 2024
- Welcome to our first-time watching as we react to "Tropic Thunder" (2008). Directed by and starring Ben Stiller, this comedy is a bold satire of Hollywood, depicting a group of actors who are unexpectedly thrust into a real conflict while filming a war movie. The film is notorious for its sharp humor and memorable performances, especially by Robert Downey Jr., who plays an actor who's overly dedicated to method acting.
"Tropic Thunder" follows these self-absorbed actors as they navigate through the jungle, both literally and figuratively, leading to a series of hilarious and eye-opening events. The movie cleverly mocks the film industry while delivering laughs and a surprisingly critical take on the lengths to which actors will go for their craft.
Ben Stiller’s portrayal is perfectly over-the-top, contributing to a movie that is as thought-provoking as it is entertaining. "Tropic Thunder" is a comedy that keeps on giving with its outrageous scenarios and clever commentary.
We hope that you enjoy our reactions, commentary, and review as we discuss the different elements that made this film such a standout in the comedy genre. From the incredible acting to the humorous, touching, and intriguing sequences, there's a lot to enjoy here.

Hey y’all welcome back! We hope you enjoy our video! Let us know what you would like us to react to next!
Great reaction, you guys are very enjoyable to watch! I wonder if I could suggest that your editing could be less skippy. I think we could do without the fast cutting and the incomplete lines. Sometimes we can't even see your reaction to a moment, because the editing jumps to after your realizing of what's going on in a scene. Hope this is helpful.

@@joeybrazil2024thank you
Love your reactions. If I may, I just have one constructive criticism. I feel your clips of the movie during the reaction were so short it got a bit annoying. I understand if its because of copyrights, but if not, I feel like fewer scenes with longer clips would be better ✌
@@eikthesheik got ya! Next video we will make adjustments! Thanks for that tip
Robert Downey Jr. actually did the commentary as Lincoln O'Sirus just as he said he would.
That’s interesting!
😂🤣
The editing for this is rough
Was all that sh*t that we just watched part of the movie or what?
Wow absolutely the worst cut of this movie to date.
Thanks man. Will watch another cut. Was choosing between this and another bedtime reaction
💯
Yes. This is awful to watch. I’m leaving. They cut every good part out.
8:16 & im gone. Cut every good scene
At the time of writing this, I've lasted until 7 minutes and 36 seconds.
I know you don't want to get a copyright but it's impossible to watch any longer.
What with this stuttering editing?
Yeah it's annoying.
It's called not getting yourself demonetized
@@Thegooman67I've seen a dozen other reactions of this film and no one edits it this way, but they still don't show more than 4 or 5 seconds in a row. I think the editor for this literally doesn't know how to keep the flow of the scene while also maintaining fair use.
Yeah, I’m actually gonna stop watching, it’s really like listening to a phone conversation that continuously drops out.
Unwatchable reaction, very choppy. Actors kept getting cut off in mid sentence. Better editing needed.
Thanks for the feedback!
I always enjoy you guys, but this wasn't your best. Almost every joke & funny scene was cut out here...makes it hard to laugh along with you like this.
They’re too scared, woman said she can’t even comment on black face, what bc your not black you can’t have an opinion? That may be how you work but thats not how America works. Lmao told me everything I needed to know
She’s the opposite of RDJ & he’s respected for doing it. Then ya got too scared to even talk ab it over here
how do you confuse Tom Cruise with Brad Pitt?
Yee cutting best scenes from the movie was a dick move guys...
Your edits 0n the movie side are really rough. Maybe start by not cutting in mid-sentence.
*"I'M THE DUDE PLAYING A DUDE DISGUISED AS ANOTHER DUDE!"*
Literally Robert Downey Jr playing actor Kirk Lazarus disguised as Sgt. Lincoln Osiris!
Love this movie! One of my favourite comedies! Everybody killed it especially RDJ and Tom Cruise!
Loved your reaction!
That was hilarious!
13 Hours
And basing it on Russel Crowe
Maybe not quite so meta (or breaking the 4th wall)...because I think the reference is Kirk Lazarus (Australian actor) playing Lincoln Osiris (African American soldier), disguised as a (south-east Asian) peasant farmer. Honestly though, RDJ deserved an Oscar for this performance, because it is SO easy to forget he's not actually African American. And if Heath Ledger hadn't been "The Joker" in the same year this movie came out, I think he WOULD have won that Oscar (as it is, he had to wait until 2024 to win his first Academy Award).
RDJ getting an Oscar nomination for this role is just perfect
Phenomenal actor! Nailed this role!
One of my favorite movies of all time and you killed it with the terrible editing.
Top 5 comedy. Couldn’t be made today.
Love your guys' energy, but the editing definitely needs a lot of work... Way too much cutting off characters mid-sentence and cutting off several jokes right before their punch lines. Makes the video extremely unpleasant to watch. I mean no disrespect whatsoever, you seem like good company. Just friendly online critique, that's all. Hope y'all keep at it 💯
Thank you so much! We are trying out different editing techniques. Clearly based on the feedback this one was NOT it. It’s something we’re still learning and are taking all comments into consideration. Thanks for watchin 😊
All the other reactors to this movie left the death and violence in. Cmon guys….
This film is comedy genius in every way literally as you both can understand why!!!!😆😅🤣😂👏🙌🙏👍🎉
Yes very genius film! 👏🏽
This came out the same year as Iron Man 2008
Robert Downey Jr’s big comeback year
That beginning sequence was part of the movie. They did it to introduce the characters of _Tropic Thunder_ and if you watched it in the movie theater, it wasn't initially clear the film had begun, since you saw other commercials / previews just before those. It's actually pretty clever.
He was watching STAR TRACK not STAR WARS. Star Wars fans hate when you get it wrong.
53:08 You do realize Australia isn't in England, right? They've been making jokes about how he's Australian the whole movie, dude lol.
This is a parody of Hollywood. Also saving private Ryan, mission impossible, platoon, deer hunter, we were soldiers, apocalypse now etc
Brilliantly put together!
Aj and Selena, Welcome to the land of the Dark Humor and desensitized comedies, we will welcome you with open arms!!! You guys need to watch Airplane from 1980 next!!!
Thanks for watching! Will look into that one!
@@ajandselenadon’t bother if you edit it like this one
watched a few of your reactions & editing is expected but what was with all the flash cuts every time they got into the jokes? (I can tell your triggered by the RETARD scene but what about all the others)
From what I saw in 10 mins, soft wouldn’t even start to describe them, they seemed lowkey annoyed by just ab all of it
You guys not recognising the Platoon references in Stiller's death scene makes me feel very old...
Oh no! 😂 okay let me go research Platoon
Sooooo many reviewers don’t get it.
RDJ is the funniest part of the movie
This movie is GOATED, truly an instant classic 🤘🏽 So many good people are in this thing and RDJ totally killed it. They don’t make shit like this anymore 😆
They don’t! And probably won’t ever out of fear of getting canceled 😞
@@ajandselena Yeah sucks that people are scared to strive for things cause they’re too pc or scared.
The Beginning Of The Movie Those Are Fake Movie Trailers To Introduce Each Of The Actors Roles In A previous movie! Also When The Director Gets Blown Up The Ben Stiller Character Truly In A War Movie! Oh By The Way That Was Not Star Wars On The IPod It was The 70’s Tv Show Star Trek Starring William Shatner As Captain Kirk And Leonard Nimoy As Mr Spock! MIND BLOWN!!!
The movie trailers at the beginning started without a pause immediately after the real trailers. So, it was super confusing but hilarious when it became obvious what was going on. What a great way to introduce the main characters!
The last great blockbuster comedy!
Ben Stiller is like no other!
Aj that's fine you said Brad Pitt instead ot Tom Cruise lmao that was hilarious
Me myself and Irene is a funny movie that is under rated.
Heard great things about that one!
Welcome to the Goodie Room!!😂😂😂
What you two call "weird" we call funny!
"its so cringe"..at least Tom wasn't wearing grills.
AJ & Selena For 400 years 33:05
I have to watch every reaction to this movie. It makes you laugh again and again
those fake movie trailers in the beginning: imagine my confusion seeing this movie in the theater in 2008😂🤣😂🤣😂
Yo AJ,Selena I said this a lot I didn’t know RDJ was in black-face until I saw him in Ironman and it was still funny AF
Haha 🤣
Y’all should watch School 🏫 of Rock 🪨
Thanks for the recommendation!
I enjoyed your reaction, and I hope you do keep doing the movies.
You guys seen Tears of the Sun , it's a good flick. Should watch it
Thanks for the recommendation!
This is one u need to watch a few times
That’s cool how you got Kim Kardashian to be in these videos 😍
You could absolutely do this movie today. You WAY over blow “cancel culture”.
dont take all the comments on the editing too serious, a reaction is about the parts you guys had a reaction to. its not supposed to be a different cut of the movie. if people want to see the movie they need to find it themselves, not watch reactions on YT.
btw did anyone mention yet - Tom Cruise came up with that entire character himself? Tom said to Ben Stiller "i need fat hands and im gonna dance" and Ben had no idea what he was talking about but he let Tom Cruise just do whatever he wanted with it and thats what we got
Buncha haters in the comments. Lol were not here to watch the movie were here to watch your reaction to the movie. Cut it up however you want 😂
Give Me Dat Gawd Damn Map !
I liked the reaction but the editing was really choppy. I don’t wanna be too critical cause i know you guys aren’t professional editors, but when you make a cut mid sentence or during odd times, or super quick during a scene it makes it hard to watch and to follow.
Got it. Tysm for the feedback. We’re still learning!
It's actually a spin-off of the movie "platoon" staring charlie sheen.
In the beginning the part where ben stiller gets shot in the back chasing the helicopter resembles the part in platoon where Willim Defoe gets shot running away from enemies chasing a helicopter.
Look it up its like exactly the same.
Researching now! Thanks!
Tropic Thunder is the funniest movie I've seen in a long time but this has been chopped up so much there's hardly any comedy left in.
one of the best comedies of all time
i need more comedy with Tom Cruise
Better to pick and choose which full sentence to leave in and which to cut. Editing it to have half of each sentence is just unwatchable.
Starting at 22:19 is maybe the best example. Cutting it sometimes in the middle of a word, and we never get any joke payoffs. At one point it was edited to have "stupid-ass", and the last word "Jack" could have been left in and stayed fair-use but it was cut for some reason. Very awkward and too choppy.
Makes me laugh every time ✌️
1:00 All other Reaction Channels that did this movie before y'all, have asked that same question 😂
Robert Downey Jr and Tom Cruise stole this movie.
Agreed!
You cut every funny part out. I can’t watch this. Leave the funny stuff in, that’s what we want to see you react to! Otherwise there is no point.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Awesome reaction keep it up 👍🏽 tropic thunder is one of my favorite movies of all time.
Thanks for checking us out!
The best fake movie ever, The Three Amigos
Fire the editing person.
What's disappointing and scary was you asking if you can even laugh at stuff in this movie.
Think this type comedy over top both your heads. Both had deer in the headlights look on your faces.. Finally gave up on the reaction...
Who the hell edited this??
Ya gotta desensitize yourself. Watch more dark humor movies. This day and age is so maddening for someone like me who grew up in the 90s with a liberal and conservative family. This movie is a lot.like the 90s movies where shit was wild and fun and no fucks given because we were all there for a good time.
He was watching Star Trek not star wars lol
Oops! We Haven’t seen either one of those. We’re adding it to our list!
Bad edits
......Brad Pitt? lol bruh.
Great ass movie!!!
We loved it!
Isnt it sad that people are afraid to laugh in 2024?😂
I know they literally had blank faces at every funny bit 😂😂
@@elliotwright8996 You can also see it in their cut😂
😀
Why you cut the funny parts of the movie?
💥✨️🎉🎉❇️#EOMREACTS☪️🎉🎉✨️💥
Loved your reaction…try and show your faces after the big stuff…like the director blowing up….or the retar*** stuff. It’s MEANT to be funny. Let LOOSE! Generation X from Seattle says you are allowed. Comedy should be universal. They are making fun of actors and Hollywood. Good times!
I agree. I’m so tired of everyone making a big deal about words that are so offensive they can no longer be acceptable. However only one race of people can dictate what is acceptable and what isn’t. If any other race has an issue with a word to bad.
And I do not recall everybody asking permission when they would react to white chicks. I heard people already laugh and make comments because that’s what you’re supposed to do. It’s comedy. It’s life is supposed to be a free country but all of this crap I’m not supposed to say anything about black face what the heck sorry for the rant. I’m just so tired of people ruining good movies. The only time you don’t want to say something is when you’re saying it out of meanness if you’re only saying something, Robert Downey Jr. having a black face that don’t mean you were discussing every black person on the face of the Earth ever ever ever. Amen.
I wonder if everybody’s gonna get reparations for all of the people that died during the Civil War to free all of the slaves slavery, kept a whole race behind because they didn’t have property or anything. What about all the men of the white families that lost their lives that never got to , have children or any kind of wealth either I’m
The dude said Brad Pitt but it's Tom Cruise, Forrest Gump but it's Platoon, Star Wars but it's Star Trek, British but it's Australian... 🤦🤦🤦🤦
Editing is very bad!
For what it’s worth Forrest Gump did have a similar looking scene! 😊
You guys can show more on TH-cam than I think you guys think you can, because this was Tropic Thunder reaction: the kid-friendly politically correct edit.
Thank you for your feedback. We take all of this into consideration and are going to try editing differently in our upcoming videos. Thanks so much for watchin!
@@ajandselena No problem. Please take it all as constructive criticism, just that some people are perhaps more eloquent with their words than others. I am subscribed and do enjoy your movie reactions, so please keep it up.
People who say that Blazing Saddles and Tropic Thunder and other similar approaches to these topics can't be made today don't understand the nuance of what is happening in the film. For example, yes RDJ is in blackface makeup because the character is, but that character is also the only person in the whole film who thinks it's okay. Ben Stiller's character talks about how he immerged himself into the Simple Jack character but RDJ's character calls him on going too far, misreading the truth of the character.
The point is, these characters are making fun of themselves and the entertainment industry.
You'll Need A New Editor 😔🙏
This video got shredded worse than Damien Cockburn. It's unwatchable. I suggest you don't venture into classic comedy if you're that offendable or that petrified of woke police...
Your cuts of this are terrible
Wow, you cut out every funny bit, and your reaction to it. Total failure.
If we're not supposed to laugh at entertainment like this anymore than the United States is in a very scary place. I don't wanna say we are approaching communism so I won't.
u dont have a simple line my channel, maybe the universal studio lol dont take all movies kkkkkkkkkkkk
you don't get 90% of the jokes lol
Stop.. just stop.... Go to music or TH-cam reactions. Movies ain't it
This movie is hell of vulgar..Jesus , this f generation..
Your videos are unwatchable
Then stop watching
This is the problem with interracial relationships, specially if the woman is white, she can't laugh or say much about stereotypes even if it was a joke because she don't want to make her black partner upset, and maybe she made some comments they had to cut it out, it's really disappointing editing.
First, she’s not white, second, she was joking. She is free to say whatever she wants
Brad Pitt, no Tom Cruise... all those white boy actors look the same.
Sorry couldn't hang with the stuttering stuff
