The Men Who Stare At Goats - **1/2
This held a lot of promise after I read the script but just didn't hold up on transition to the screen. I didn't think much of Ewan McGregor in this role. I think it needed a more cynical and dry interpretation (I pictured Jason Bateman when I read the script) and not so wide-eyed and innocent. Clooney looked like he was having fun and if Jeff Bridges would have had more screen time, I would have enjoyed this film more.
