After a deadly terrorist attack leaves hundreds of American civilians dead in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, Special Agent Ronald Fleury (played by Jamie Foxx) is chosen to lead a group of elite agents (Jennifer Garner, Jason Bateman, and Chris Cooper) to help him bring down the terrorists.
Upon arriving in the desert, they find that the Saudi authorities are suspicious of these Americans in which they consider a local matter. Agent Fleury receives help from a Saudi Colonel (played by Ashraf Barhom), who helps to navigate royal politics and unlock the secrets of the crime scene and to stop any further destruction.
The team eventually is led to the killer’s front door and a do or die confrontation ensues. *Synopsis by Universal Pictures*
“Mixes action and intentionally obvious political relevance together in a movie that’s part police procedural, part military action, and all smarts.” - Joshua Tyler, CinemaBlend.com
“Peter Berg’s movie is no more than an action movie with an exotic backdrop. That would be fine, if only the movie were more exciting.” - Stephen Farber, Hollywood Reporter
“Berg struggles to blend rah-rah Top Gun heroics with spiky Bourne-style realism.” - Rich Cline, Shadows on the Wall
“A jaw dropping look into something many Americans, like me, are all too unfamiliar with.” - Vince Koehler, Entertainment Spectrum
