New film coming out with Jack Black, Ben Stiller & Downey Jnr.



Doesn't look too bad.
 
Looks good.

Hopefully it'll get Stiller's career back on track after Heartbreak Kid.
 
I'm going to be a little more cautious with Jack Black films.

I sunk into a week long depression after seeing Be Kind Rewind - without being too critical, I would say that, that was the worst film I have ever seen in my life.

Yes but he ripped it in Kung Fu Panda, all his other movies are shite though
 
Was reading about it in Empire this month. Ben Stiller is one of a rare breed............ An American with a sense of irony
 
Robert Downey Jr. seems to be doing the most amazing roles of late. He's also signed on to play Sherlock Holmes in the movie coming out next year.
 
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: FAF just watched it and im in stictches Downing Jr was the funniest iv ever seen him, I usually detest black and stiller but they were actually brilliant, I hate slapstick comedy from the likes of black and stiller and ferrell and the wilson brothers but my mate forced me to see it and well :lol: just watch it! Havent laughed as hard since Wedding Crashers.
 
There have been a lot of fuss over the repeated use of the word "retard" in the movie. The news was talking about equality groups picketing the premier of the movie or something.
 
Watched it today. Was a good laugh, and agree about a certain balding character in the movie:lol:
 
Saw it today and I thought it was disappointing.... not a patch on Pineapple Express, if you're going to see one, see that.

I'm over Stiller movies after this one... I'd rather watch Jerry Stiller.
 
Saw it ... was good in parts. Has some amazing production values. Robert Downey Jr is great as usual. That man can do diverse roles. Jack Black and Ben Stiller and Jack Black and Ben Stiller .... respectively. Decent guest appearances from two Hollywood big shots, one especially.

Overall decent. Amazing production values in the war scenes for a Comedy though.
 
The way they built up Tugg Speedman's character in the fake trailer and then the big punch line "Who left the fridge open?" had me in stitches.

You muh, muh, muh, muh, make me happy! :lol:

so many brilliant one-liners! loved the fake trailer at the beginning with downey jnr, haha. downey was fecking brilliant - "i know who i am! i make disguises and other doobey dubbydo!" :lol:

dont think its as good as pineapple express though, that was pure slapstick fun!

EDIT - i liked danny mcguire's pyromaniac effects guy the best, that guy was fecking awesome, and tom cruise's character... well :lol::lol:
 
Mmm I thought it was way better than Pineapple Express, which I feel is the new Anchorman as in funny but clearly not as funny as everyone's made out.

Most of the jokes were hit-and-miss for mine, and I was even a bit bored for a bit, though it did get funny towards the end.

Mind you I went to see it with one of my mates on a Wednesday Night last minute styles. I saw Tropic Thunder with a group of us on Friday Night - packed cinema, pre planned etc I suppose the atmosphere really counted.

He was in Pineapple Express too.

"Thuuug liiiife" :lol: that was the best bit of the whole movie.
 
Enjoyed this film alot,very funny.Tom cruise was quite good in this too and didn't realise it was Him until halfway through,the part were He is is giving it down the phone to the red dragon hurt my chest.
