Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Peter Berg's penchant for telling a gripping tale set in the modern world is on full display in The Kingdom. By showing both the American and Saudi perspectives in this fictional yet familiar scenario, Berg elevates an already intense story about an FBI team on a mission to solve a terrorist attack that claimed one of their own.

The Rotten Tomatoes summation of this movie reads: "While providing several top-notch action scenes, The Kingdom ultimately collapses under the weight of formula and muddled politics" This is the definitive proof as to why relying on Rotten Tomatoes, or any review aggregator, for that matter, will only do a disservice to you a viewer. The Kingdom is a top-notch experience. From start to finish. This is what I call an action-thriller. It's fast-paced, straight-to-the- point, and intense like hell. All I want a topical action movie to be. This is exactly what I wish a movie like Sicario was more. While I thought that movie was great, too, I found it to be tedious in some instances. This, however, is exactly my kind of movie. It is topical, it has politics in it, it has your typical moralistic values in there, too, but it's all packed in a straightforward plot that doesn't let you get bored and keeps the level of intensity going until the credits roll. Yes, this movie is over-the-top and suffers from over dramatization. However, I can't fault a movie for that when we have movies like Braveheart and The Revenant - that are beloved and highly regarded - which all are nothing but exaggerations of real events.If people think that Captain America: The Winter Soldier is the be- all and end-all of modern action thrillers, they better take a look at this rethink that statement, because this movie makes makes it look like The First Avenger.P.S. Peter Berg should definitely direct an adaptation of Tom Kings's Sheriff of Babylon.

I very much enjoyed this thought provoking film. The script offers a clue as to why there is such hostility to the U S A in the middle east. A tense and action packed drama, which goes right to the wire. Having seen a few of these U S versus fanatics of middle eastern origin, in war zones, they seem to have a common problem. The viewing pleasure is undermined by poor sound quality. The issue is so problematic, that if viewers of T V Film packages demanded a sub title option, then something might be done, to offer an improvement. I would have given this film a 9/10 but demanded my money back had i had the listening experience in the cinema, like i had in my home. I am beginning to wonder if there is a cynical ploy of farming out poor quality sound action films, to mugs like us who pay for these packages.

A team of U.S. government agents is sent to investigate the bombing of an American facility in the Middle East. The Kingdom is a 2007 action war film starring Jennifer Garner, Jamie Foxx, Chris Cooper and Jason Bateman and honestly i was surprised by the performance of Bateman not your typical over the top comedian and Garner, Cooper and Foxx they were really really good. The chase scenes and action sequences are handled very good by director and also actor Peter Beg you also directed Lone Survivor another great film. If you can accept this film and not judge it as propaganda i think you will be fine also don't except action every 2 seconds the movie is very interesting on it's own way.
