Over the past decade George Clooney has become a movie icon. He first hit it big on ER and has since made several successful projects including (Out Of Sight, O Brother where art thou, Oceans Eleven, Good Night and Good Luck, and Michael Clayton). This time he again picked an interesting script about a reporter from Michigan who hears of a secret military force who call themselves Jedi. His costar Ewan McGregor (Star Wars I-III) plays the journalist the movie also features Kevin Spacey as the antagonist Larry Hooper. The movie has some extremely funny scenes and dialogue, Clooney plays Lyn Cassidy the most gifted of the Jedi and he teaches McGregor there ways the obvious joke being he played one in the Star Wars films. The biggest problem is I think it could have been better it suffers from a similar problem that plagued the popular film Napoleon Dynamite very funny at times but also kind of boring at certain points. In this case however I think the actors find a way to make it work I just feel that the movie had the potential to be great and it ended up just being a good movie.
