"Just tell me what we did here!" It's a good point. I won't pretend that I know what we should do in every situation, but the film Three Kings raises questions on war. Three Kings also has an interesting story that puts a small group of US soldiers trying to liberate Kuwaiti gold for themselves only to be thrown right into what the Iraqi people were dealing with. There's a lot of great shots that David O. Russell and team that make Three Kings feel unique. It blends a war movie with elements of comedy that I will always enjoy.

This is a forgotten gem. We should get a movie like this for every _Top Gun_ or Michael Bay film that’s released. I’d never think about approaching a war parody like this, but that’s why David O. Russell is a great filmmaker and I’m not. Extremely well written (love the characters and subtext, most of the comedy is kept subtle), great performances by Ice Cube, Marky Mark, Spike Jonze and Clooney, superb soundtrack and sound design and very original/unpredictable. The editing and camerawork take some time getting used to, but I have no problems with how it was executed. If anything it made the film more memorable for me. Love the colour palette and film grain, looks great. 9/10

Lots of funny moments in this film, which I forgot about. It's a surreal take on the absurdity of the Gulf war. Clooney has had alot to say about the slightly unethical methods that director David O Russell undertook, and he seems a bit of a bastard. But it was a fine, if slightly overlong bit of nostalgia.

I’ve always enjoyed the occasional rewatch of this film. Can’t go wrong driving into battle with “If You Leave Me Now” by Chicago getting you pumped up.

_Three Kings_ is not my usual sort of thing, I watched it on the suggestion of a complete stranger, and I don't know that I'll ever watch it again. But I **do** think that it's a good movie, so I'm going to pass that buck and say, that those of you who like me had never seen this nearly twenty year More

"Man... I didn't join the army to pull paper our of people's asses."

One piece of paper can truly decide how a man's week can change. From stealing gold to rescuing almost an entire village. I never thought the story would go in to that direction but I'm glad it did.
