The Kingdom

Gosh, when was the last time I went to the cinema for a flick? Should be a few months ago. Missed out on so many good movies. Recently, I was awarded a pair of tickets to the preview screening of The Kingdom, a movie about terrorism in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia which stars Jamie Foxx and Jennifer Garner. The scary beginning of the movie was able to capture the attention of the audience with all the sudden attacks on innocent residents and two suicide bombings. From there, the suspense really started building as four FBI agents risked their lives to investigate on the case. All while long, I was waiting to see if any of these agents will get killed. Not until the very end, one of the agents was captured. There was actually a plan to behead the unlucky agent. Nevertheless, he was rescued at the nick of time and the plan failed. Overall, it was quite action packed and truly depicts the fear and consequences of terrorism, conveying a strong message on world peace and humanity. You should definitely watch this. However, if you're a weak-hearted and sensitive person, don't catch it as it contains violence and religious issues. You have been warned! ****1/2
