The Kingdom
Federal Agent Ron Fleury on an official mission to open an investigation into the bombing of an American facility in the Middle East. Ron has one week to assemble an integrated team to destroy a terrorist cell based in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, which is the most dangerous task due to the opposition of local law enforcement agencies, which meet to block the progress and development of the elite team. Things develop when the Saudi police chief is sympathetic and an unexpected companion in that mission.

A good deal more Transformers than Syriana, a movie that drapes a crisp, lightly browsed copy of The Economist over an enormous pubescent boner for grinding metal, busted glass, and crackling gunfire.

When it's got the pedal to the metal, which is a substantial fraction of the running time, The Kingdom delivers the goods.

[I]t fails in its attempt to be a serious drama with important things to say about the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East.

Sensationally directed by Peter Berg.

Everything moves so much and so fast that the movie seems both gutsy and brainy. But the main strategy is to keep viewers' pulses racing so they concentrate on the action, not the message.
