I might stare at a goat from time to time

It has been a while since I have written a review. I might be as rusty as the tin man on this shit and there really isn't a oil can to grease me down anywhere. SO BARE WITH ME.

Alright, so the title kind of says it all. This movie is weird. It is not your typical flick.

Storyline goes about a reporter who finds George Clooney who is a nut who thinks he has super powers... or does he? So they go through a little adventure with some flashbacks to explain some things here and there.

The thing that sucked about this movie, is the thing I just wrote about. The storyline is wild and way out there. It is kind of like watching an episode of Seinfeld, it almost feels that the movie is about nothing.

The movie itself also isn't very well done. The scenery is boring, the layout of events gets boring at times, and it is a quiet flick so no real music or noise gets boring. Yeah, I have had more interesting car rides that some of the stuff just mentioned.

I am really glad they went all out as far as actors go. They all did well. That aspect of the flick kind of helps things.

Also, when they do play music, it some tunes you normally don't hear in movies. That is a big relief too.

The humor in this movie steals the show, or what is left of the show. It is a very clever dry humor. I would be lying if I said I was so bored I fell asleep. Although I did catch Baby Girl snoring. I was laughing. The flick was funny. Weird, but funny.

I am struggling on giving this one a score. The only reason is that I have watched funny movies like this, i.e. Super Troopers and Old School, and thought they sucked. But after the second or third time I watched them, turned out they were pretty funny. I can see this movie being one of those.

Point is, I might like it if I watched it again. Is it bad... I have seen worse.... Is it good.... I may not go there just yet. I am giving this movie a straight down the middle answer. This flick gets a threesome out of a cherry pit (3 out of 5).

Birddogger out.
