The Kingdom

I went into this movie looking for a lot of action. There was some but it was concentrated at the beginning and end. The middle got a little dull for me. Very interesting look at the United States relationship with the middle East. Good for renting but I would not buy it.

Ninth grade Wahhabi Hadif taught to 14-year-old boys in Saudi Arabia says, "The day of judgment will not arrive until Muslims fight Jews, and Muslim will kill Jews until the Jew hides behind a tree or a stone. Then the tree and the stone will say, 'Oh Muslim, oh, servant of God, this is a Jew behind me. Come and kill him.' Those that misguidedly believe that the people of Saudi Arabia are our friends will think this movie a terrible Hollywood interpretation of our peaceful allies. Acting is superb, direction is lightning fast. The premise if fundamentally flawed, allowing the FBI free reign in the Kingdom, but if you can suspend that disbelief, be ready for a wild ride.

I love this movie easily one of Jamie Fox's best performances of his career and the last 30-45 minutes are the most intense action scenes you will ever witness. Its an absolute edge of your seat action packed blockbuster that you do not want to miss
