The Kingdom (2007)

KILL THEM ALL!!

Wow, someone wanted to make another Syriana, but with more stuff being blown up. The difference was instead of George Clooney's fingernails missing at the end of the movie, mine were. However, it was after the movie. I was so bored with the discussion after that I started picking my fingernails.

My favorite Chris Cooper movies are those where he is unrecognizable due to his character being off the wall. When I recognized him, I knew this movie was in serious trouble.

You could tell the writer was smart, but you could also tell that the audience didn't care and just wanted to see stuff blown up.

It was a little emotional. In fact a sequence in the beginning really choked me up. But refused to let the "bandaids on mouth scene" (You'll know it when you see it) get to me.

Jennifer Garner was by far the worst actor in this. Freshly off Alias, she took the first "agent" role that came her way. She teared up at every dead body she ran into, so she was practically crying throughout the whole movie.

The Feris guy was good.

I heard of an alternate ending where the whole team is detonated when Chris Cooper hugs a guy at the end. I won't reveal the ending, but pretty much everyone gets off scott free.

Jamie Foxx is good in this and "IMMEDIATELY" deserves another Oscar. What do I mean by immediately? See this movie and find out.

overall, an eh movie. like did I like it? I hated it.
