The Laboratorium

Tropic Thunder I give it 1 star

In an ideal universe, Tropic Thunder would have starred Steve Carell in the Ben Stiller role, Philip Seymour Hoffman in the Jack Black role, and Tracy Morgan in the Brandon T. Jackson role. Also, Tom Stoppard would have written the screenplay and someone else, anyone, would have directed.

In our universe, this movie sucks.
