Reporter Bob Wilton is trying to lose himself in the romance of war after his marriage fails. He gets more than he bargains for when he meets a special forces agent who reveals the existence of a secret, military unit whose goal is to end war as we know it. With unparalleled psychic powers, they can read the enemy's thoughts, pass through solid walls, and even kill a goat by simply staring at it. Now, the founder of the unit has gone missing and the trail leads to another psychic soldier who has distorted the mission to serve his own ends.

not great, not bad
This movie was kind of crazy in a laid back way. I kind of liked it. The scenes with Ewan McGregor and George Clooney in the dessert are funny, and I was amused that Ewan McGregor was a Jedi yet again. I firmly believe that Jeff Bridges stole the show as a hippie drill sargeant of sorts... (Hippie, I know, SHOCKER, right?!)
It wasn't awesome, but it was interesting. Put it on while you're working on other things.
