A-ha! This is hilarious, or I should say cynical. This movie is a parody of Star Wars and the Iraqi War (Blackwater thing, specifically). I don't know about the director at all, but there are lots of big actors, like George Clooney, Ewan McGregor, Jeff Bridges, Kevin Spacey, wow. Casting is awesome. And the story line is also ... well, it's ridiculous, but funny and cool though it doesn't make sense at the end of the movie. But, it's enjoyable, which is sure
