the kingdom



The kingdom is about a story that we are all to familiar with, we see it everyday on cnn, youtube, al jezeera and other sources. Its a story of hate, of a few idealist who think killing others can be justified because of some religious obligation clouded by personal beliefs in cultural influences.

We'll kill them all,
the phrase that drives the entire movie. Yes there's Jamie Fox and Jen Garner and they... well he acts well convincing the Saudi's to allow his elite team go investigate the killing of Americans in a Saudi camp who's only crime was enjoying a family time out in the baseball field in the glorious sunshine. Despite the restrictions imposed on them they were able to work pass that to get what they wanted, who they wanted.

I was really scared of the reality of people who will go all out to eliminate 'infidels'. Young, old, and the in betweens. I guess i'm glad i'm on God's side.

The movie does not feel like a movie, it felt quit real like something you would watch on a CNN report, the camera shakes a lot in some scenes which can make you dizzy but i was alright.

At the end of it, you don't feel wow that was a nice movie, you think, you are sober, at least i was. At the end of it you feel thank God I don't have to worry about a bunch of people trying to take me out when i'm enjoying a family time out.

Thank You God for the peace we enjoy.
