Chad Says...Man - the first 45 min of this movie I was laughing my butt off. I was getting ready to put this movie into my top 5 comedy list. I still might. The middle of the movie levels out then it picks right back up at the end.
This movie reminded me of Three Amigos. Actors that get thrown into a real situation that they think is fake. That's a prescription for pure gold if you ask me. When they first get thrown into the real jungle and something (I won't spoil it for you) happens to the director I spewed coke all over the seat in front of me.
I loved Ben Stiller. I LOVED Robert Downey Jr. The guy that plays the explosives expert needs to be in all comedies from now on. He's awesome. Jack Black was very mediocre. The other guys were so great in this that he just played backup to them the entire time. Stiller tried to throw Matthew McConaughey a bone to prove he's not the douche everyone thinks he is but only confirmed the fact. Tom Cruise showing up in the movie was out of no where but a WONDERFUL surprise. The characters in this movie were brilliant. I can't wait to see this movie again.
The ending - yes I saw it coming from a mile away but I loved it anyway. It was a nice recall.
Chad's review: Must see. See it and love it. Embrace the genius of this movie. Now go read TJ's review and see what an idiot he is.
TJ Says...I didn't really know what to expect going in. I had heard overall good reviews and RDJ (Bob Downy Jr.) looked hilarious in the previews. Unfortunately, 90% of the funny was in the previews...

The bad: It started out very slowly. 20 minutes in, I've already looked at my watch 4 times, not good. Matthew McconauGAY is in the movie, life force drain. It was pretty slow, with a few funny moments. A lot of funny parts were in the previews.
The Good: RDJ (as mentioned above). Tom cruise is pretty funny and VERY over the top, which suits him to a tee. I cry laughed one time, and continued laughing about it hours later, when Jack Black was tied to the tree. G-O-L-D. The guy from pineapple express that was the dealer that got into a fight with seth rogan is in this movie. That guy is FUNNY.
TJ's Review: Not as good as Step Brothers, better than Pineapple Express. It's worth seeing at the theater, maybe at matinee prices though.
