Review of The Men Who Stare at Goats (2009) by Julie N — 26 Jan 2011
It is a bizarre and odd little film about a truelly absurd story that seems to be loosely based on Star Wars set in Iraq. George Clooney plays a psychic soldier, although evidence to that claim is not clear as he does claim that he is dying from a death touch that happened years ago.
I found the pairing between him and Ewan Macgregor was consistantly funny, with a quirky back story into Clooneys past to keep you engrossed. The latter part of the film seemed rather lazy and probably should have been more shocking.
