Tropic Thunder

I wasn’t that impressed by it. I’m not a big of a Ben Stiller fan, and he did nothing to change my mind here. Felt nearly everyone was just playing themselves, and Tom Cruise’s role was just a desperate attempt to become more likeable to the public, in a hey-I-can-make-fun-of-myself way, especially the bit during the credits. Robert Downey Jr on the other hand was awesome. He carries the film, he's funnier than the rest of the cast put together. The biggest laugh I got from the whole thing was the mock Trailer for Satan’s Alley.

Zodiac

It was a very good and tight movie and the actors involved did a very good job.

One or two scenes didn’t make quite sense to me, but I think that falls under the scenes where the writer wants to let us decide what to believe.

The film was friggin long though, there were several times where I felt the film started to wind down, only to have it pull back up again.

The feel and look of the film was really great, it gritty look without having it be depressing. You get involverd in the characters lives and their obsession with the Zodiac killer.

I can’t really go to in depth about this movie. I’ll just say that it was very good, and it’s worth checking out.
