Let me guess. Downey plays a mocking sardonic character, Stiller plays a dense egotistical beefcake and Jack Black farts a lot? NOWAI! I'm just saying that these actors didnt do anything special or different from past roles in this film. There were some funny parts but I personally wasnt rolling hysterically on the floor about it. This film is about a set of actors - your typical action star, the serious actor, a comedian, a hip hop star, and a down to earth newbie actor - who are dropped off in a jungle littered with cameras to get authentic reactions from their stars. Unfortunately, the stars dont know that the landmines and the Vietnamese-type Asians are the real deal. You cant understand what Robert Downey Jr was sayin half the time (and he talks like that during the commentary too!). Some of the funnier parts of the movie were the previews at the beginning, Tom Cruise's makeup (his arm hair is ridiculous), Wilson's agent character, and Stiller's attempt at playing a retarded character in a movie (what can I say? I'm lowbrow). Definitely worth a watch once.
3.5 stars.
