The Kingdom
Blood/gore: Tons of it. Easily a 10.
Dialogue: Hilarious sarcasm throughout the movie. Sarcasm gets you
an easy 10 in my book.
Sexual Content: No T&A, but Garner is a slammin hottie in uniform. It gets
a 6 just for being able to gawk at her all movie.
Special Effects: Amazing. Purely amazing. Well crafted movie. It gets a 9.
Weapons: You have to respect RPGs, Automatic Rifles, and human bombs.
It gets a 10
Destruction: It is a movie about terrorism. I would give it a 12 if 10
wasn't the highest possible score. So a 10.
Overall: 55/60
I had heard some bad reviews about this movie from some friends, which is why I had not seen it until just last night. Needless to say, my friends are idiots. This was one of the most suspenseful movies I have ever seen. Usually I think critics lie when they say crap like "this movie will have you glued to your seet from start to finish. You won't be able to turn away." With The Kingdom, that really is true. So much amazing special effects and gun scenes that I nearly crapped myself. It was that awesome. Jamie Foxx, Chris Cooper, Jason Bateman, and the smoking hot Jennifer Garner were all phenomenal as their respective characters. I especially loved the never ending sarcasm of Bateman, Cooper and Foxx. I found myself laughing at jokes as much as being in awe of the downright sick battle scenes. It is an easy to movie to follow, which makes the fact that it is really more of a movie focused on solving a crime that much better. Where other crime solving movies go lame and boring for most of the movie, The Kingdom goes through the roof with an explosive punch that will leave you in awe. Trust me, it is well worth the $4 to rent this and watch it a couple times. Hell, I would even say it is well worth $15 to buy.
