I just got back from seeing this movie. It was pretty hilarious. It's about how the US military experimenting with psychic or other paranormal activities, as told by the journalist who found out about it. The funny thing is that the project was called "Project Jedi" or whatever, since Reagan was a fan of the star wars series, as well as the paranormal, so the actual units within this sector of militia were called "Jedis." On top of that, they got Ewan Mcgreggor (who played Obi in the prequels) to play the journalist. It also involves George Clooney staring at goats. Need I say more?

That sounds like a fun movie.
The trailer you linked to didn't work for me (it's only accesible in the US)
Here's a link to a HQ version of the trailer on youtube:

not only was reagan a fan of star wars to make a secret "Project Jedi," he also helped with the idea of Operation Star Wars, which would be satellites from space being able to counter and destroy Soviet missiles if they were ever launched. crazy amirite?

I've wanted to see this, it looks great. However I've heard generally negative reviews, glad to here a positive one though.

Half the humor stemmed from McGregor saying things like "What's a Jedi" etc. It was an off-kilter comedy. It was ok.
