"Tropic Thunder without the gags" - _Mark Kermode, BBC Radio 5live_
Militaristic film "starring" real US Navy Seals. At the beginning, the two directors talk for about five minutes about how that was the only way to get the integrity required to make the movie work. During this entire bit, [Mark](Mark_Kermode) assumed he was watching a Spinal Tap-type spoof.
As with many other [Wittertainment](Wittertainment) riffs - [Rise Of The Guardian](Rise_Of_The_Guardian) or [Bareback Mountain](Bareback_Mountain), for example - the film takes its alternative title from a misprint in the [Box Office Top 10](Box_Office_Top_10) list read out by [Simon](Simon_Mayo).
