The Men Who Stare at Goats is a quirky movie. It is about an alleged special unit in the Army designed to use psychic powers. A reporter for the Ann Arbor paper interviews a local person who puts him on to a story of the unit. His marriage breaks up and so he decides to pursue the story. He travels to Iraq and meets a couple of the key players who had been in the unit. One of them takes him on a trip through the desert. Sound a bit odd?
Well, yes, it should. But like a lot of other movies that George Clooney has been in recently, it is very funny. Not slapstick, although there is some, but funny as in tightly woven line of humor. I really enjoyed the movie.
