Move Review: ‘The Men Who Stare at Goats’

What I saw was one long steady fast paced unrelenting one-premise stream of goofiness that in the final analysis just isn’t funny enough. The Men Who Stare at Goats doesn’t pay off. The ending is weak. I am not sure anyone will get this film’s humor . . certainly not the guy in front of me who told his date he needed LSD to understand the movie. (spoiler: LSD plays a roll in the big crescendo scene). I have seen Clooney, Bridges and Spacey in much funnier stuff. If you don’t know what films I am talking about let me know. I will supply you with some titles so you can avoid this turkey. [ RT ]
