Well I have seen some rubbish in my time but this really takes the biscuit - a stellar cast completely wastes their talents on a ludicrous plot and a plodding storyline.Based on a "true story" Ewan McGregor plays an American journalist who happens across George Clooney,a former US soldier who belonged to a covert unit known as the "Jedis" who possessed "special powers" prompting Ewan to ask "what is a Jedi?" - oh how I did not dissolve into hysterical laughter.
Apparently the real-life author of the book on which the film is based is British,not American - so why the American accent affected by McGregor? Later on he wears a tartan tie! Please.Kevin Spacey should sack his agent for involving him in such dross.
Don't get me started on the egregious last ten seconds.He is doubtless a credit to his profession,certainly very handsome and by all accounts a very nice man but I have still never seen a decent George Clooney film.A masterclass in how to construct a tepid,boring,feeble, uninvolving,woeful film utterly lacking in humour or dramatic tension without a single thing which could be said in its favour whatsoever.
Simply one of the worst films that I have ever seen.Complete tripe.0/10
