Square brackets specify character classes; you need to escape them:

^(.*) * \[(.*)\].

Also, "." means any character, so for exact matches you should escape  
them.

^(.*) * \[(.*)\]\.

Also, " * " (zero or more spaces, followed by one space), is exactly  
the same as " +" (one or more spaces).

^(.*) +\[(.*)\]\.

Also, you might want to constrain it to match the end of the line as  
well, though it won't make a difference for this particular pattern.

^(.*) +\[(.*)\]\.$
