I agree with you that this is Stiller's best film. I might even call it a masterpiece. If I have any advice for you as a RUclipsr, it would be to research the words in your script before doing the recording session. "Respectively" has a specific purpose in language; it is not something we just add to the end of any sentence where we have listed some things. It is for situations in which we have made *two* lists of things and we need to indicate that the items on the first list pair up, in sequence, with the items on the second. If you can come up with a list of things to compare or correlate with the performances of Downey and Cruise, then the word would be appropriate; otherwise it has no job to do and makes the script seem like it's fishing for big words to sound smart. Also it's best to research the pronunciation of words and names you are not familiar with. The Scottish name McLeod is pronounced "McLOUD, " not "mcLee-odd." Garafolo is pronounced "Gur-OFF-a-low," not "GARE-a-FALL-oh." You have a good speaking voice and a nice cadence; if you can avoid distracting your listeners with "what did I just hear?" moments, you seem to have the right ingredients for good narration.
Thank you for the heads up @billmartinson4205. I’ll aim to be better and improve my use of language and pronunciations in the future. I apologise for any incorrect uses of words and butchering of pronunciations but bear with me as I am only human.
Thank you in advance! 0:53

Did they get a double for all those sick kick flips?
Yeah it gets double points for the kick flips that Ben Stiller 100% did himself😂
Forgot Severance. But that's not a movie.
