Did It Suck Movie Reviews

Review:     3.5 Stars

In the words of Weird Al Yankovic, ”Dare To Be Stupid“.  Men Who Stare at Goats is stupidly good in a serious way.  Based on a true story of actual non-events or so they say.

We follow Bob Wilton, a reporter played by Ewan McGregor as he tags along side a Super Spy named Lyn Cassady (George Clooney), who developed Super Powers of the mind thanks to secret government training.

All in all this movie was nothing special, not much of a story and yet,  it was the funny obscure seriously ridiculousness that kept it interesting to watch.  I laughed more times then I expected to and sometimes just because it was plain stupid. “The little man inside me was screaming like a little girl”

With a cast including Jeff Bridges and Kevin Spacey playing smaller rolls that could have been played by anyone,  I still didn’t feel too bad paying for a ticket to see this film.  Some people may find this movie a little off in left field, but I think that was intention.  I’m leaning towards, Worth A Ticket more than not, as its a good movie to see in or out of the theater.
