Three Kings

This movie surprised me. It's not a typical war movie. There's plenty of action, but it's deeper. The characters are really interesting. Highly recommended.

Originally saw this years ago, and seen it many times since, but just noticed it under a selection of Clooney films here and it brought back a flood of memories. It fires all all cylinders and on every level. The story and pacing, the cast and their performances, and then there is that David O Russell touch of magic which back then we couldn't exactly put our finger on WHAT exactly that was, but a handful of brilliant movies like this since from him have proven exactly what that is, it's a David O Russell movie, that's why it is! If you have never seen this drop everything and do yourself a favor and watch it. Don't rent it though, buy it, you'll want it in your digital library.

Add in your own character names and follow up outcomes at the end of the film. No in film titles , just a typewriter overdub. You may will enjoy the film but realize that it doesn't give you a sense of connection to the film. I stopped it when I heard the typewriter at the end of the film; who cares for moving still shots with no identity? Itunes drag leg quality assurance system for the consuming consumer, here in brilliant form.

I just watched this film again having seen in before many years ago. The cinematography is extraordinary. What struck me was how well David O'Russell understood the issues and was able to convey them both blatantly and subtly. Three Kings is a lighthanded, intelligent war film and political commentary.

A strange yet brilliant mix of goofy humor, cynicism, and dead seriousness, Three Kings stands out as one of the most interesting war comedies around.

Best movie ever

Captures the moment, plot is great, characters are structured well....but I cam help but to fast forward some scenes in this movie. Some scenes seemed to last forever and you wonder, what was the point in that? But, still a great movie to enjoy. Worth Renting & Buying!

Excellent cast, effects,story,combat, emotional intensity and wisecracks. I thought this movie was ansolutly worthwhile and great. A must see for those who like action with a little comedy.

It seems like the director could not to decide whether to make a tragic war story, an action film or a comedy. The movie is a weird mix of an Oceans movie and Jarhead. While the cast is stacked, the character development is poor and plot line predictable. I am just left with a puzzled feeling after watching this travesty.

This movie diverges from reality to a degree that makes it farcical. Still, the first half of the movie is at least entertaining, until it takes a slow and mindless path toward an obvious (yawn) conclusion.
