The plot is extremely absurd: in order to shoot the real war scene, a group of actors were exiled to the tropical jungle of Vietnam, but they accidentally hit the Golden Triangle and met a real drug dealer. After a fierce fight, they finally broke through the siege. They also forged a deep friendship. Is this scenario boring enough? What's even more outrageous is that there are also disguised Vietnam War heroes and idiot drug dealers who follow along.
The film's dialogue is full of lines from non-classic films and allusions to Hollywood gossip, and if it weren't for the knowledgeable and responsible subtitle team, I'm afraid I would have no idea what the people on the show were talking about, or why they said it. Add in the shit and shit jokes in the film, and the low-level jokes that make fun of race and skin color, and the film is basically useless.
Ben Stiller was an actor I really liked, but this time he arranged the director himself, and it was disappointing that he came up with something like this. Jack Black has never made a decent movie. Robert Downey Jr. is a good actor, but in a movie like this, the more he tries to grasp the role and act out some feeling, the more nondescript he can only appear.
In short, this film is harmful to watch, and it is useless to say more.
