"At one point in "Tropic Thunder," the new comedy from writer/director/star Ben Stiller, co-star Robert Downey Jr. plays and Australian Method actor portraying a black southern soldier pretending to be a humble Asian rice farmer. And what's Ms. Greatest Living Actor Today, Meryl Streep, doing in the next theater? Oh, that's right. She's working on her tan, kicking it in the Greek Isles and singing ABBA tunes. Come Oscar time, if there is any justice, Downey would at least make the "For Your Consideration" rounds for his role as the uber-intense Kirk Lazarus. Downey Jr. treats his high-wire performance with such dignity and devotion that he spends almost the entire film in blackface without once seeming condescending or racist. But let us back up a bit, shall we? "Thunder" is not only a scathing little indictment on the film industry, but, minute for minute, one of the funniest films released this year, overcoming the third-act slump th "

"Based on the TV show which ran for 93 episodes from 1975 to 1979, the movie version of Starsky & Hutch teams up Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson as the bickering California cops. Having never seen the show I worried that the film, which is part homage, part loving spoof, would go over my head. Fortunately the script is funny enough in its own right that even if you do not know the material it spoofs you will still find much to enjoy. Set in "Bay City", California - our two heroes come from decidedly different schools of policing. Starsky (Stiller) is intense and highly-focused whereas Hutch (Wilson) is laid back and prepared to make a quick buck on the side. Forced together by their Police Chief when nobody else is prepared to work with them, they struggle to overcome their differences and become a team. After discovering a corpse in the water, Starsky and Hutch find themselves hot on the trail of druglord Reese Feldman (played wonderfully by Vince Vaughan). Feldman has developed a ... "

"This has got everything!..A laugh a minute,some right-on politics,most of the Stiller family working in perfect harmony,Will Ferrell getting to be really funny,even David Bowie knows his place, in an hilarious cameo ,the super-cool Justin Theroux is unrecognisable,Milla Jovovich is hot ,and nuts in equal measure...After a few viewings this could start to rival "This is Spinal Tap" for quotability ..."..so hot right now"..."eugooglogy"..."there it is ...Magnum!"..."ok this is no slashy"..One way this could be a "slashy" is that "Dodgeball" could rate as joint best Stiller film..

"Zoolander, Ben Stiller’s 2000 fashion world spoof, has been doing consistently well on iTunes’ movie download-to-own chart. NewTeeVee’s Chris Albrecht wonders why. “Wait, what? An eight-year-old comedy is more popular than Ratatouille, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, and High School Musical (parts 1 and 2)?” Apple hasn’t released demographic information, but let’s try to imagine, for a second, who might be willing to spend $10 on a legal––but DRM-heavy––movie download at this stage of the game. First of all, it’s gotta be someone who uses Mac products exclusively: students, artists, upper-middle-class nerds, aging hipsters, style-conscious parents, the curious rich, celebrities. Albrecht has screen caps of several recent iTunes top sales charts, and it’s clear from a glance that adventurous cinephilies don’t seem to be yet represented––but then, with the exception of a handful of classic titles, iTunes’ movie catalog doesn’t seem to be going for adventure. So let’s assume ... "

"My wife and I took our son and a buddy to this film over the holidays...and my expectations were low. Not that I'm not a Ben Stiller fan (Zoolander is hi-larious), but this seemed to be simply a brand awareness film for him...not brand defining and certainly not brand re-defining. Lot's of actors do it (think Robin Williams...repeatedly), so I'm not going to be critical of him for that fact. It's just that I don't typically get excited about movies that seem mainly created as a vehicle to widen an actor's brand into new demographics.< "
