This film was so good. I can't believe it. I have seen it seven times already. Jamie Foxx and Jennifer Gardner were such a dynamic duo. Peter Berg is a directing genius. Jamie Foxx is the greatest actor ever. This has Oscar written all over his performance.

I was able to see this as a preview at the fort theatre. It was incredible. Having just returned from Iraq, the action sequences and the overall setting evoked a lot of memories...not all of them good. The Saudi police officer is a creditable character and reminiscent of some of my Iraqi troops. Not all Muslims are bad, but the ending of the movie reminds us of things we should never forget.

This movie was unbelievably bad. Stereotypical cast with bad dialog. The fact that people actually like this movie just blows me away. The action was not very impressive, the plot was mediocre at best, and the direction showed me nothing interesting. Go see something more intelligent then this over-produced mess of a film.

Oh, and one more thing. I loved how the message in this movie is to 'kill them all.' One of the reasons the Arabs hate us is because we make movies like this and the audience has no clue how insulting it is to their culture. Yeah, thanks to the kingdom I now understand that the best way to solve the crisis in the Middle East is to 'kill 'em all.' Great message, great movie.

Keep producing a movie like this Hollywood and you help messing things up with people from the middle east. This kind of insensitive, kill them all, jingoistic attitudes are the ones that make others to hate us. It won't help our societies in dealing with other nations and make prejudice worse. Let alone to realize that some of us Americans have already had myopic point of views.
