Rotten Tomatoes 2 weeks ago
Though The Men Who Stare at Goats is a mostly entertaining, farcical glimpse of men at war, some may find its satire and dark humor less than edgy.

We never know whether or not were supposed to believe in Lyns psychic abilities, nor are we really certain how Bob feels about them either. Heslov manages to switch nicely between the earnest zaniness of the New Earth Army and some more realistic forms of warfare
