The Kingdom what a movie

Post by minks »

Anyone seen it WOW!

It was outstanding. The ending blew me away and well without giving it away I was surprised the ****** all lived. Perhaps they really did I wonder how much was factual. But not taking anything away from it, I have to say it stirred me up quite a bit and gave me the same feeling I got when talking to someone else about their experiences in a war. wow it was a wow+ flick.

WOO HOO!!, what a ride!!!"

The kingdom is a perfect movie starring Chris Cooper, Jamie Fox and Jennifer Garner and telling about the FBI investigatuions in Saudi Arabia after a terrorist attack targeted facilities of foreigners working there.

i like the movie because unlike the ridiculous Rules of Engagement wehere we see young boys and girls of the age of six firing bullets at US marines which is incredible (despite the presence of Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L.Jackson and even Ben Kingsley) The Kingdom made a trustworthy,even if fictional, portrayal of Mujaheedins (sometimes simply terrorists).



The movie was inspired by true events and wasn't a kind of retaliation like Rules of Engagement, but a step forward a better understanding of the work of terrorists who couldn't tolerate the presence of non-Muslims in Saudi Arabia which is the native land of Muhammad the founder of Islam (1400 years ago).
