Film Review - Three Kings (1999)


Three Kings stars George Clooney, Mark Walhberg and Ice Cube as three US Soldiers who during the end of the Gulf War in March 1991 learn of a secret bunker which is said to contain stolen gold, but their quest for it will drag them into situations that they should not have any part in.

Now, this movie is not a bad film as there are some parts of it that made me laugh, such as the discovery of the cars and the early part of the film which I felt was wild and wacky and that put me in a good mood for the rest of the film, but the film turned into an action picture where the soldiers try to save the people living under Saddam Hussein’s rule and the action is actually quite good but I also found it hard to care for anyone besides the Walhberg character.

So there you have it folks, A movie that is good sometimes very good but not great by any stretch of the imagination so it skimps by with a 2 and a half out of 5.
