Kingdom

Pros: Great action scenes, strong acting.
Cons: Lacked realism at times.

I watched Kingdom at the movie theater on opening weekend. I was looking forward to this movie, which had an action packed trailer and plenty of advertising. The movie delivered the action, but I got a little hung up on some of the sub-plots ...

Pros: Good action scenes, strong story and acting
Cons: A little too talky in the middle

The Kingdom is a great action movie about a bunch of FBI agents who travel to Saudi Arabia to investigate a bombing attack that killed some of their own people. It stars Jaime Foxx, Jennifer Garner, Chris Cooper, and Jason Bateman. It was directed ...

Pros: Jennifer Garner (and the other actors)
Cons: Weak story, cardboard characters, horrid camera work

There are very few actors who make a movie a must see for me. Jennifer Garner is one of them (even though I have missed a few of her films). So when I had the chance to see a sneak peak of this film, I went for it. Unfortunately, she wasn't enough to ...

Pros: great directing, acting and writing, good action seqeuence
Cons: touchy subject matter

The Kingdom is a challenging, action film about the tensions between America and Saudi Arabia. The movie smartly combines heart-pounding action with intelligent commentary on the cultural clash between the two nations, their political interests and a ...

Pros: Stellar acting by all parties.
Cons: Some parts are a tad bit unbelievable.

We Americans need not look any further than the attacks of September 11th to realize that the safety and security we as a nation have felt with Saudi Arabia is perhaps veiled in economic simplicity rather than reality. The country in the middle east that ...

Pros: A sturdy thriller, with a TERRIFIC final 20 minutes.
Cons: Great cast given poorly developed characters in many cases

Many of the reviews I've read of THE KINGDOM comment on how appropriate or not it is to make what is essentially an action-thriller against the setting of modern terrorism. The hidden implication of these criticisms is that "it's not okay to make a movie ...

Pros: Eye-opener for A Saudi Arabian's side of the story
Cons: Touchy subject with a religious background into terrorism

During the last seventy-five years, (since 1933, when Americans discovered oil in Saudi Arabia), A supply/demand was created between two different locations, the Middle East and America. America, with it's constant demand for petroleum, has ...

Pros: Great cast, good director, cinematography and photography
Cons: A bit predictable

Pros: Action packed and not too political.
Cons: Missed some of the dialogue hard to keep some of the characters straight at first.

We rented this movie with family over the weekend and I really enjoyed it. I had heard good things and was not disappointed. Although it has gotten some poor reviews it was definitely one I would watch again. The movie stars Jamie Foxx, Jennifer ...

Pros: Well made detective story.
Cons: None.

Tensions in the Middle East are nothing new and attacks on Americans have taken place more often than not on foreign soil rather than here at home. But until now, few movies have been made focusing on attacks abroad. All that changes with THE KINGDOM. ...

Pros: Jamie Fox, Jennifer Garner, Ashraf Barhoum awesome piece of acting
Cons: Co-ordination and carrying out the strategic plan on Abu Hamza

Directed by Peter Berg, the action/drama movie has portrayed all the steps of reality of how extremists or the so-called radical islamist take root. The movie starts of with a background check on how Saudi-Arabia was formed by the " wahabi " clan and ...

Pros: Great action and great story line.
Cons: All too real and a little depressing.

The Kingdom is a great action movie swaying in the political direction. After a horrifying terrorist attack and suicide bombing in a safe zone in Saudi Arabia, four FBI agents head to the country to try and bring justice to those responsible. The ...

Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing

We rented this movie recently because the previews made it look very intriguing. This movie really hits home because it takes place in the Middle East with the suicide bombers. It is a happy day for Americans in the Middle East who are playing a ...
