Tropic Thunder promises much fails

The ratings boost lifted MSNBCs prime-time block over CNN for the week, according to data from Nielsen Media Research. Tropic Thunder promises so much but fails to deliver, burdened with a flimsy screenplay and an irritating turn from Black as a jittery heroin addict. We vote in greater numbers than men and when we even marginally abandon our Democratic-leanings, Republicans win. His smug mug has been the cornerstone of a decade-long string of films, including two this year alone Burn After Reading, a Coen Brothers caper currently in theatres; and Leatherheads, which arrives tomorrow on DVD. Other new titles in the top 10 include Kate Hudson comedy My Best Friends Girl and animated feature Igor. A dude whose mascot looks like an animal graham cracker, duct taped the pompous bullys mouth into submission.
