YOU AND A GUEST ARE INVITED TO A SPECIAL SCREENING OF

THE KINGDOM

Academy Award® winner Jamie Foxx leads an all-star ensemble in a timely thriller that tracks a powder-keg criminal investigation shared by two cultures chasing a deadly enemy ready to strike again in "The Kingdom."

When a terrorist bomb detonates inside a Western housing compound in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, an international incident is ignited. While diplomats slowly debate equations of territorialism, FBI Special Agent Ronald Fleury (Foxx) quickly assembles an elite team (Oscar® winner Chris Cooper and Golden Globe winners Jennifer Garner and Jason Bateman) and negotiates a secret five-day trip into Saudi Arabia to locate the madman behind the bombing.

Upon landing in the desert kingdom, however, Fleury and his team discover Saudi authorities suspicious and unwelcoming of American interlopers into what they consider a local matter. Hamstrung by protocol-and with the clock ticking on their five days-the FBI agents find their expertise worthless without the trust of their Saudi counterparts, who want to locate the terrorist in their homeland on their own terms.

Fleury's crew finds a like-minded partner in Saudi Colonel Al-Ghazi (Ashraf Barhoum), who helps them navigate royal politics and unlock the secrets of the crime scene and the workings of an extremist cell bent on further destruction. With these unlikely allies sharing a propulsive commitment to crack the case, the team is led to the killer's front door in a blistering do-or-die confrontation. Now in a fight for their own lives, strangers united by one mission won't stop until justice is found in "The Kingdom."

    movie was exactly what i thought it would be not a great movie but not a crappy movie either, somewhere in between. army fans should like this movie. the action was great and the characters were well develope. jamie foxx did he thing in this movie along with a few unnamed actors aswell. there was a bit of too much talking but nothing that will bore you in anyway. a few subtitles here and there but for only a few minutes here and there. the line wasnt too long and the wait time was moderate to about an hour or so of waiting. once i was seated i notice that the majority of ppl where let in as it got packed with a few seats still avialable here and there. while the staff at the theater was nice and helpfull there was one guy who i'm sure got on a few poeples nerve. he was taking everyones ticket but 20 or so minutes before letting us in he was overheard saying how you had to have an actual ticket and the paper print out wouldnt work. good thing no one left as the print out was accepted. overall another great screener brought to us from mark kwan, i give the movie a B and the overall screening experince an A.

    i've had enough of middle east, arab, terrorist movies. this movie will only further impair your perspective on diplomacy and politics surronding international conflicts. i'd rather watch CNN.

    When was the last time you saw a really good western? well, its about time you saw another one.

    3:10 to Yuma (Best bet)
