Steven and Sean want to watch all the movies. No really, ALL the movies. We're both filmmakers (although Sean's been dabbling in other things) who love to talk about all the movies we see. Each episode, we discuss a movie we've recently watched and decide whether or not it's worth your time. Hosted by Steven Reyes and Sean Anderson.

On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are questioning our very existence deep in an Asian jungle. We watched the 2008 film from Ben Stiller, Tropic Thunder.

Both of us have worked on enough film sets to be able to definitively say that, while this movie is a fun, action-packed romp, it could also be a completely factual documentary. That’s how accurate the performances were.

We would never wish having to work with a method actor on any of you, but if you’ve been around one, then you know what we mean. It’s a harrowing experience, much like being fired upon by relentless adversaries.

Enjoy this episode about a film that’s both hilarious and completely, 100% accurate in every possible way. Yeah, even the Tom Cruise stuff.
