Hacia la oscuridad (2007)
A really long, short movie.
I rented this movie thinking it would be an action film that came out of the dark. I realized during the first few minutes that this wasn't going to be short. The movie contains flashbacks of the kidnapped man's life with his friends and family. There are also flashbacks of other people as well. Mostly flashbacks of the people who are looking for the guy. I thought the ending was predictable if you listen close to the bad guys words when the scene of the kidnapping is giving. I didn't enjoy this movie because it was missing something. That something may be some details that are needed and some details that should have been kept in the dark! If u enjoy really boring movies that have the same ending that every other movie of the same category has now a days then rent this or buy this but in my opinion I would rather not see this again. It's not even a movie that I would see if I could go back through time.
The Kingdom (2007)
Good movie that could've been better.
I give The Kingdom an 8 out of 10 because towards the end the big shoot'em up scene wasn't necessary. Now I know this is a movie and don't get me wrong I love action movies that have everyone killing one another but this movie was trying to be as close to reality as it could. As many people know the ending contains one of the Americans getting kidnapped and then the American agents go to kill the bad guys. Now if I'm correct the bad guys normally blow people and stuff up and they don't really use guns much. If the movie had the bad guys blow up all the good guys now then I'd understand and believe it. All in all The Kingdom is really enjoyable and I will watch it again. I do recommend it to many but with reality towards the end with the shootout scene it curves off the straight line that it was going along with.
