Sneak Peak at "The
Men Who Stare At Goats"
The
Men Who Stare at Goats was
inspired by Jon Ronsons non-fiction bestseller of the same name, an
eye-opening and often hilarious exploration of the governments attempts
to harness paranormal abilities to combat its enemies.
In this quirky dark comedy, inspired by a real life story you will
hardly believe is actually true, astonishing revelations about a
top-secret wing of the U.S. military come to light when a reporter
encounters an enigmatic Special Forces operator on a mind-boggling
mission.
Reporter Bob Wilton (Ewan McGregor) is in search of his next big story
when he encounters Lyn Cassady (Academy Award winning heart throb
George Clooney), a shadowy figure who claims to be part of an
experimental U.S. military unit.
According to Cassady, the New Earth Army is changing the way wars are
fought. A legion of Warrior Monks with unparalleled psychic powers can
read the enemys thoughts, pass through solid walls, and even kill a
goat simply by staring at it.
Now, the programs founder, Bill Django (Tron Legacy's
Jeff Bridges), has gone missing and Cassadys mission is to find him.
Intrigued by his new acquaintances far-fetched stories, Bob impulsively
decides to accompany him on the search.
When the pair tracks Django to a clandestine training camp run by
renegade psychic Larry Hooper (Kevin Spacey), the reporter is trapped
in the middle of a grudge match between the forces of Djangos New Earth
Army and Hoopers personal militia of super soldiers.
In order to survive this wild adventure, Bob
will have to outwit an enemy he never thought possible.
The Men Who Stare At Goats will
stare at you in Australian cinemas on December 26, 2009.
