5 Second Movie Review: The Men Who Stare at Goats

By sfbirdie

Turns out, George does not like killing goats, and Ewan can be cast as a guy named “Bob”.
Lots of time in the desert.
Lots of goats.
A decent amount of funny quips by George.
A decent amount of LSD.
Who knew Barney could be as bad as waterboarding?

Not what I thought it would be like, but decently enjoyable. Maybe I just have a problem calling such a sexy lad like Ewan McGregor “Bob”.

A sequel is already in the works: The Men Who Talk to Stoats.

Don’t forget about the poorly received prequel: The Men Who Swear At Shoats.

I’m waiting for the musical – The Men Who Hear Some Notes.

*sorry*

And to think I balked at adding The Men Who Wear Fur Coats.

I still need to see this. Goats are rather amusing animals, very capricious.

Smitros: Yes, and when they’re on LSD? Talk about amusing!

If I were the goat that was killed in the movie, I’d be on the phone yesterday with my agent. Sure, it’s really nice to see the goat getting equal exposure in that escalating-stars’-profile of a movie poster, but ya’ll who haven’t seen it should know: The goat that bit it was brown.

I liked it. I have no clever line. The Bart Simpson/Burt Reynolds reference made me laugh for five minutes.
