good film. Well acted, good story. Good action. I'd never heard of it, but took a chance since there are so few movies worth renting these days.

Yes very good!

I must admit that it was messing with my mind though.

I just saw it in Riyadh.

Some of it was filmed there, though the palace they go to dinner at is in Abu Dhabi, UAE though.

Got a kick about how lite the traffic was in the movie. Driving there is "entertaining" for real.

Just rented it from my local red box machine. On a monday with a 50 cent off coupon, I got the rental for 53 cents... sweet.

It was a good rental.

Cheap bastard!!

<---- Jealous bastard!

I rented it too...during Christmas (no better time to watch terrorist type movies IMHO - LMFAO!) I ended up watching it 3 TIMES. I liked it and even considered buying the DVD at Target the other night.

Some reviews were cruel...but I was entertained (obviously...I watched it 3 times).

I find that those red box machines usually have the movies I want to see in stock, where as my local blockbuster doesn't. Plus its much much cheaper, and I'll rarely watch a movie twice when I rent it.


If you haven't, you should check out the special features section on the car chase and stunts. Its pretty interesting to see how they set this stuff up.
