The Kingdom

A reasonable shoot-em-up >expletive< film, but definitely a Rangie enthusiasts wet dream on the big screen (wealthy Saudi's, need I say more?)

The saddest point in the film for me was when a dude with a rocket launcher blew up a perfect green 2nd Gen. RR.

I knew it was coming. It was so, so sad.

You're right about the start - my girlfriends brother is a petroleum engineer, wants to work where the petroleum is :s Needless to say it spooked us...

just saw this, its a brilliant film, all the stuff i was teaching over there! was relevant in the movie, the terrorists, the crime scene, the primary and secondary devices and much much more, we showed it to the students prior to their graduation.
