No, not that... just STARE at them.

The Men Who Stare at Goats (2009)

Quote:

A reporter, trying to lose himself in the romance of war after his marriage fails, gets more than he bargains for when he meets a special forces agent who reveals the existence of a secret, psychic military unit whose goal is to end war as we know it. The founder of the unit has gone missing and the trail leads to another psychic soldier who has distorted the mission to serve his own ends.

I won't tell you too much about it as I don't want to spoil the plot, but it's quirky and quite a bit of fun. Anyone with a slightly "off kilter" sense of humour (that's a lot of you people!) is likely to enjoy it !

A

out of 5 from me !

Nah, you're thinking of the sequel, shooting now in Northern NSW with some cross-border locations, The Men Who Stare at Skulls.

Maybe it's that group of Kiwis that want to come out here for hunting, maybe they think there's no sheep here

I saw the review on At The Movies last night on ABC. Looking forward to seeing it.

At the Movies: The Men Who Stare at Goats

"It's OK...we're americans. We're here to help you....I just ran him over...crap.."

OK here's my review, which i put on imdb.

Quote:

Do you love movies packed wall to wall with explosions?
Does your diet consist solely of spray-on cheese and doughnuts?
Do you think psychic means wingman? (as in, Tanto was the Lone Rangers' psychic)

If you answered yes to any of these questions you should see another film. Probably something with Megan Fox in it (who, by the way, you have NO chance with).

If, on the other hand, you have a slightly off-kilter sense of humour, a smattering of intelligence and a moderately optimistic outlook for the human race... then you ought to see this one.

You are going to love it !
