Very enjoyable and with plenty to think about.
Cooky and humerous, but it is so well written and acting so tight, that you might need to find out how much of this was real!
Great references to actual real facts , now comical. The CIA experimenting with LSD. The mind readers recruited during the Cold War, etc.
a little weird but a movie with a great cast and such an interesting story that i couldnt help but love it
Great story with an amazing cast. Based on real tests, I'm not quite sure where fact & fiction cross, but a fun time the whole way through.
Decent war comedy, surprised it was inspired by true events. A little bit drawn out towards the end but not too much.
watch this movie and everytime something weird happens just think “this is based on true events” it makes everything 100% funnier
Zany, off beat fun. Clooney and McGregor are delivering some of their best work here.
A surprisingly funny and horrifyingly true story 😂
Excellent war comedy movie, great cast and acting with some funny scenes. Worth watching
