The Kingdom - Movie Review

Just saw The Kingdom the other day and decided to put down a few comments. Overall, I liked it a lot. In some places the details were a little weak, but not a bad action movie. It's somewhat hard to describe. Many of the individual scenes are plausible, but not linked together very well.

I think it brings out a lot of the complexity of Saudi Arabia. You have the moderate people who just want to raise a family and get by living amongst radical Islamists. I believe Saudi Arabia is the most "overlooked" threat to the United States. Don't forget that 15 of the 19 Sept. 11 hijackers were Saudi.

Good depiction of urban combat at the end. Lots of action. Gives the viewer a look at fighting from room to room.
