The Men Who Stare at Goats ****

I didn't know anything about 'The Men Who Stare At Goats' when I received it except that George Clooney and some other big names were in it (Kevin Spacey, Jeff Bridges, Ewan McGregor).

It turns out that 'The Men Who Stare At Goats' is about the remote viewers who were a part of the CIA back in the '80s. Specifically, about some of them now, and a new adventure that one of them goes on with a young skeptical journalist.

The whole idea that the US government had anything so promising as to the spread of love, peace and joy, is quite encouraging. Even though the project was supposedly abandoned, the idea is strangely exciting.

It was a really nicely done story, with a beautiful ending. We all know how much I love those!

Ok for the kids, but they probably wouldn't be able to keep up or understand all of it.

A really interesting watch!
