DVD Reviews of The Kingdom (Widescreen Edition)
DVD Review: Brilliant in places
Summary: 4 Stars
The last half hour or so of this movie is incredible. The fight scene with Garner, Bateman, and the large Saudi character is as intense as anything in 'Saving Private Ryan.' It makes you question yourself, how would I come out of such a fight? It's a brilliant and extremely violent scene. DVD Review: Revenge Never Ends
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the best films I've seen in a long time. Good direction by Peter Berg (who also makes a guest appearance). Even though the content is emotionally charged this is a character driven movie. With the leads of two different sides conflicting but coming together to work on the same goal--Finding the evil doers. Special Kudos to Ashraf Barhom (Colonel Ghazi and Jason Bateman (Adam Leavitt). From the beginning you become attached to the scene and what is going on. The special effects are well done and a painful tension is maintained throughout the whole film. Not everyone makes it out alive and the losses are unexpected. I highly recommend this film which in the end delivers a never ending message. DVD Review: poor service

I have not received the DVD and the seller has not responded to my e-mails. The account is in arbitration.DVD Review: The most recent REALISTIC Middle-East 'War' movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Finally! A movie about the Middle-East that isn't engulfed in Liberal bias! It's fast paced and full of suspense. It's shockingly realistic and will open your eyes to what some of our fellow Americans are dealing with overseas. You will definitely want to watch this in surround sound-DVD Review: PETER BERG, OPUS 4
Summary: 2 Stars
** 2007. Directed by Peter Berg. When a terrorist attack kills dozens of American citizens in Saudi Arabia, four FBI agents are sent to Ryadh to find out who's responsible for the killing. Very weak effort from a director who gave us Very Bad Things, Friday Night Lights (Widescreen Edition) and The Rundown (Widescreen Edition) a few years ago. The camera work is ridiculous, the screenplay inept and the message conveyed by the film questionable to say the least. I felt like watching a 110 minutes long episode of CSI:Ryadh, it's as simple as that. Inadvisable.
Description of The Kingdom (Widescreen Edition)
"A High-Octane Action Movie." -A. O. Scott The New York TimesOscar? winners Jamie Foxx (Collateral) and Chris Cooper (Breach) and Golden Globe? winners Jennifer Garner (Daredevil) and Jason Bateman (Smokin' Aces) ignite the screen in this high-intensity thriller about a team of elite FBI agents sent to Saudi Arabia to solve a brutal mass murder and find a killer before he strikes again. Out of their element and under heavy fire the team must join forces with their Saudi counterparts. As these unlikely allies begin to unlock the secrets of the crime scene the team is led into a heart-stopping do-or-die confrontation.System Requirements:Runnig Time: 110 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?ACTION/ADVENTURE/TERRORISM Rating:?R UPC:?025195005920 Manufacturer No:?61100766Set in Saudi Arabia, The Kingdom is a political action thriller with good acting and wonderful visuals. Its so-so script, though, at times meanders aimlessly until a good explosion jolts the viewer's attention back to the screen. Jamie Foxx stars as FBI special agent Ronald Fleury, who leads an elite team into Saudi Arabia to find the terrorists who attacked American employees working in the Middle East. He has been given the unlikely deadline of five days to infiltrate the compound, with just his wit and his crew, which includes forensics expert Janet Mayes (Jennifer Garner), explosives guru Grant Sykes (Chris Cooper), and intelligence analyst Adam Leavitt (Jason Bateman). It's unclear how helpful smarmy U.S. diplomat Damon Schmidt (Jeremy Piven) will be, but Fleury knows enough to surmise that the media-hungry Schmidt might not be completely trustworthy. Foxx and Garner have wonderful screen presence, but it's Bateman and Piven who get the best lines. Director Peter Berg peppers The Kingdom with actors he has worked with in the past. Berg, who guest-starred on Alias opposite Garner, casts Tim McGraw in a small role here. (The country singer also had a co-starring role in Berg's 2004 film Friday Night Lights.) And Kyle Chandler and Minka Kelly--two of Berg's lead actors from the Friday Night Lights television series, , make appearances in The Kingdom. The action sequences he creates are impressive and generate a sense of panic that The Kingdom producer Michael Mann (Miami Vice) undoubtedly applauds. While a tauter script would've rounded out the action nicely, the action in many cases does speak for itself. --Jae-Ha Kim
