My wife and I saw a sneak preview of 'The Kingdom.' Interesting. At times it can seem a little heavy handed and it tries to do too much in trying to have the viewer 'understand' the issues of Saudi Arabia, terrorism, the muslim world, etc.

With that said, it was pretty entertaining. Jamie Foxx was very good and Jennifer Garner did a nice job. Jason Bateman was very good in a serious, though he was very funny, role as another FBI agent. Overall, it was good action, interesting plot and very disturbing terrorist images. Pretty good.
