The Men Who Stare at Goats is a comedy/action film about a reporter Bob Wilton (Ewan McGregor) who tries to impress his ex by going to Iraq to prove he is worth something. On his journey he meets Lyn Cassady (George Clooney) a former member of the U.S. Army’s first Earth Battalion.
Although it may not be apparent what these two strangers have in common, you soon discover there is more to war than weapons as they demonstrate the powers of a Jedi Warrior. The two are joined by Bill Django (Jeff Bridges) and Larry Hooper (Kevin Spacey).
WARNING THE FOLLOWING REVIEW CONTAINS A SPOILER !!!!!!!!
This movie provided a few laughs but overall disappointing for a so called “comedy.” There are a few scenes that did not make sense but that could also have been because I lost interest. It was a pity because they had a great cast just not great material.
WARNING SPOILER ALERT!!!
The part of the movie that I actually really enjoyed because I did not see it coming at all was the last scene when Bob Wilton runs through his office wall, very unreal but still it impressed me.
I should actually see this movie so I have an opinion on the film but I can't make myself pay ten bucks to see a movie that most of the class didn't like! It sounds like they ended it well with Bob running through the wall as proof to himself that he could change.
