This movie's disturbing and a kinda depressing, but really good. It starts in Riyadh, where a family compound for an oil company is suicide bombed and obliterated, killy hundreds of men, women, and children. It sets off an international incident, forcing Jamie Foxx and friends to get over there and get involved. The Saudi government isn't happy that there are Americans there to investigate the incident, and tempers flare. Some serious $h*t goes down and lots of bullets fly. Good stuff.
Most surprising thing about this? Jennifer Garner isn't so bad at action flicks. Creepiest thing about this movie? The Saudi kid's last line. Argh.
Of course Jennifer Garner is great at action flicks - have you seen Alias? If not, watch it. You know, after you're done watching all of those movies... :P
ReplyDeleteIn my mind it's been so long since Alias (and Daredevil) and she's so "mom-like" now that it really surprised me. Then I remembered that. Such a far cry form 13 Going on 30! LOL
