"The Kingdom" is a very explosive, high-action movie.
Story
-----------
Terrorists attack US Oil Employee housing compound in Saudi Arabia and kill more than 100 Americans. FBI team, led by Jamie Foxx, arrives in Saudi Arabia to investigate the attack. Terrorists attack the team and kidnap one of the members. Rest of the team hunts the terrorists down, free their team member and kill everyone.
Review
--------------
There is not much in the story. And there is not much scope for acting. Jamie, as a leader of the team, has done a good job. Jennifer Garner is a waste. She did nothing other than chewing gum, crying and in the end, killing few terrorists. I was expecting some ALIAS kinda stuff, but was disappointed. Chris Cooper also had not much to do. The movie's focus is on Jamie and the hatred of Saudi terrorists towards America.
The camera work is good and the explosion scenes are "the best". If you are a n actin fan, this is the one for you, just do not expect "Black Hawk down" kinda stuff here.
