A group of self-absorbed actors set out to make the most expensive war film ever. After ballooning costs force the studio to cancel the movie, the frustrated director refuses to stop shooting, leading his cast into the jungles of Southeast Asia, where they encounter real bad guys.
Tugg Speedman finds himself trapped in a genuine jungle firefight after his method acting goes catastrophically wrong. This chaotic satire rips apart Hollywood ego with relentless, unapologetic absurdity.
