The Men Who Stare At Goats is a major disappointment considering the all-star cast and book on which gave the movie birth. Based on Jon Ronson's book about secret military experiments using psychics, George Clooney plays the odd soldier with a gift and Ewan McGregor plays the curious journalist. Ninety percent of this movie is as stale as week-old bread with only a few bright spots here and there. Grant Heslov directs the yawner that looks on the surface like a Coen brothers movie without the Coen brothers. Prepare to be bored. Men Who Stare At Goats is rated R for language and just doesn't work. The Men Who Stare At Goats (R)
