Ben Stiller's biggest problem as a director has been that his material has never quite been worthy of his obvious ambition. But in Tropic Thunder, a satire about the insecurity and immaturity of movie stars, which he co-wrote with Justin Theroux and Etan Cohen, Stiller's obvious comfort and confidence in the material grounds the film so firmly that, for the first time, his directorial ambitions can flourish. The premise is that five actors -- three of them international superstars -- are stranded...

When the box office champ Ben Stiller’s comedic performances aren’t a variation on a soft-spoken, put-upon everyman with an eventual fuse, he’s usually playing a full-blown absurdist monster with an apoplectic Napoleon complex. These bizarre creations usually adorn films in which the funnyman provides the supporting work (DODGEBALL, HEAVYWEIGHTS), but, whenever he’s directing, he’s free to build an entire filmic universe around his asinine, ludicrously funny, culture-skewering characters and premises...

Well-shot by cinematographer John Toll , and cannily edited by Greg Hayden , the film is a visual treat. Moving briskly from joke to joke, Tropic Thunder , much like Hot Fuzz , works as both as an action film and as a spoof of action films. When there are visual allusions to other Vietnam classics like Apocalypse Now or Platoon , the point is never just to reference those great works -- there's always something else going on in those scenes to make them funny, so the homages simply add another layer...

One of few criticisms people have about the war in Vietnam is that the war was unwinnable, a quagmire from which there was no escape. Well, Ben Stiller has proven that the war was indeed winnable... or, at least, that a movie about people making a movie about Vietnam can be a winner at the box office. For the third weekend in a row, Tropic Thunder has taken the #1 spot, pulling in another $14.3 million over the long holiday weekend for a total gross (so far) of $86.6 million. While the movie's controversy...
