There is a little for everyone in this film as long as you keep an open mind. I will never look at an old beat up tea pot in the same way after his thoughts.

Jennifer Garner was terrible in this movie. She can't act. It was so boring I kept hoping it would just be over.

Just saw it in the theatre 1 hour ago. Plot-wise it's a clone of "Clear and Present Danger" 15 years ago, where instead of Doctor Ryan we've got the team of four FBI agents and set in modern-day Saudi Arabia. In the compound where American company oil workers and their families work under protection of Saudi government there's a car bomb explosion during baseball game. Many people got injured. When help arrives there's a bigger explosion that kills some 100 people. FBI wants to send their investigators, but Saudi government insists that they would be a target and a liability under these conditions. After tough negotiations a team of elite FBI investigators, Ronald Fleudy (Jammie Foxx), Grant Sykes (Chris Cooper), Janes Mayes (Jennifer Garner) and Adam Leavitt (Jason Bateman), is finally allowed to go to the site to investigate and they are granted only one week to do it and get out. A Saudi security officer, Colonel Faris Al Ghazi (Ashraf Barhom) is assigned to keep the FBI team out of trouble.Read the rest of the review here: http://www.maximovieblog.com/2007-10-07/the-kingdom-2007-r-110min-review

Not only was the movie totally unsuspensful, and a car ********** wasted the talents of its stars. Jennifer Gardner was a shadow of her Alias fame, Chris Cooper was fine, but very restrained, and Jamie Foxx, come on, does any CIA operative talk like he just stepped out of the Ghetto? This proves Jamie Foxx is NOT an action hero. I thought it was a suspense film, not a farce. And the noise! Not since Armageddon was there such deafening sound without half the creative effort. What was Berg and the cast thinking? Did anyone see Munich and learn what suspense action thrillers are really like? .

This movie was hilarious. It is rated R for a reason and if you don't want to see any sex and nudity then this movie is not for you, otherwise, you will find this to be very funny. My husband and I went to see this movie and loved it.

I found the movie to be boring for the most part. There's enough of this going on in the world, so seeing this movie was like watching a CNN documentary. If the director wanted to make an action flick, he could have used his imagination and come up with some really good stuff. We don't need to see extended, incredibly violent news clips on the big screen. Oh, and Jamie Foxx, completely miscast, as an FBI Special Agent? I can't believe they let him speak the words, "we was." I doubt that was in the script. If you want to see some good, old-fashioned killing, just pop (sneak) into the theatre for the last 20 minutes (after you're done watching another GOOD movie). It's the only part actually worth seeing -- that is, of course, if you are into watching dozens of people getting executed...
