the kingdom

this is a high action movie that scares you with acts of terrorism, keeps you at arm's length from the characters, and sends the message that all anyone really wants to do is kill their fellow human. Jamie Foxx and Chris Cooper are both great actors, and you get little glimpses into their talent, but not enough to truly engage. Jennifer Garner has one great but disgusting Sidney Bristow moment, but mostly this film just blows shit up, and proves once again that Americans value American lives over all others.
