The acting is fairly decent, but it is the kinetic nature of the film that ultimately makes it successful. The odds are still in the favour of the former, but the film tries the show the darker side of both. Bold in its ideas, Three Kings is a film that one will probably love or hate. Ultimately, it is a tale about the brutality humans inflict upon each other to satisfy their material greed. There is humour here, but between the times we're made to laugh, there is a lot of depth to this material.
Violence begets violence.
