Top 7 FBI Movies - "The Kingdom"

by Alexandra on June 5th, 2008

Director Peter Berg’s FBI action thriller is today’s pick, and No. 5 - The Kingdom. Watch the official trailer for The Kingdom below:

The Kingdom stars Jamie Fox, Chris Cooper, Jennifer Garner, Jason Bateman and Ashraf Barhom.

In an America housing complex in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, a bomb detonates during a softball game, killing many Americans and Saudi Police. As the Saudi government decide they must investigate this matter on their own, a lead FBI agent in the U.S. assembles a small team of agents, and is secretly given access to investigate the incident.

Emotions (drama) are high in the very beginning because a colleague was a victim as well as many innocents! Once the team arrives, they are met with much stone walling and suspicion. With just 5 days to complete the investigation, they must use other means to gain real access to the evidence.

The case is solved, but not without some bloodshed, as the team becomes face to face with the killer. I enjoyed the movie because of the pace, and the relationship developed between Jamie Fox’s character and that of the Saudi army officer portrayed by Ashraf Barhom.
