Review of Three Kings (1999) by Sayer F — 10 Feb 2014
Went back and watched one of David O.. Russell's earlier films 'Three Kings'. Got exactly what I expected when it came to the dry and dark humor involved with serious topics. The film is a complete joke within itself, but Clooney, Wahlberg, Cube and Jonze do a great job as stereotypes. Considering the plot is pretty preposterous and out of sync with what actually was going on during Desert Storm, I wasn't so much interested in the final outcome of whether they got the gold or didn't as much as I was to the dialogue.
Because Russell chooses to focus a bit more on the comedy and such rather than formulating a sensible plot, it gets knocked a few points for being a tad out there.
