Netflix Review: The Kingdom

Wow.
Just "Wow."
This movie actually made me want to put my opinions on the electronic paper. Fantastic movie. I got it the other day and hadn't had the chance to watch it. About 1 minute ago the first of the credits started rolling by and I immediately felt the urge to tell someone else about it.
Not only is this movie about catching the "bad" guy, it goes into the why of said "bad" guy being bad. The ending does a beautiful full circle. So many complexities, culturally as well as historically. Plenty of action and it has enough realism/drama to make you feel like you are there.
My friend who was actually over there (middle east) attested to it being a great movie. And said friend, with enough "fun liquid" in him, has told some gruesome stories that he experienced as a soldier.
I give this 4.5 out of 5 stars
Until next dvd rental,

I currently live in Plano, Texas and work at an IT outsourcing company as a SAN Storage Administrator. You can say I'm one of those 'just out of college kids'.
Hobbies: writing, computer building, reading (usually computer books but I get around to SciFi/Fantasy once in a while), movies/tv, bars, IT security, and of course Eggxpert.
Not much of a Myspace/Facebook kind of guy. My top (dot com) sites I visit are Gmail, Eggxpert, Writing, and Digg.
In short, I'm just another guy with a computer and an internet connection.
