Summary: WOW!
Review: This movie was the second best picture i have seen all year. The first being American Beauty. The entire movie was well shot well directed and TERRIFICLY ACTED. Everyone in this picture gave there best and it worked very well. If you buy one DVD this year pick this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Surprising good!
Review: I had serious doubts (not being a "war" film buff. But it just sucked me in. That combination of actors (George, Mark, Cube) really worked. And the cinematography was the best I'd seen in a while. Sort of surreal; unnatural colors, strange angles. And the use of music was interesting. A very unique movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent DVD
Review: This is definitely not my favorite movie in the world. The bleached film and camera work that looks like a home video really annoys me. However, this is worth buying if you enjoyed the movie, since the DVD is packed with extras. The video journal by David Russell is the most fascinating supplement I have ever seen on a DVD (I have over 150 DVDs). I would have bought it for that alone! You must see it if you are interested in how a movie gets made, it is really neat. If only this had a commentary track with Spize Jonze and Ice Cube...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent!
Review: What a shame Three Kings was ignored by the Academy Awards! I went to see this movie as a die hard George Clooney fan and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. I thought George did a fantastic job. Although I am not a war-movie fan, the plot, the cast, the cinematography and the music hooked me. This movie touched on so many emotions. A movie that can do that is worth viewing and I've viewed this one three times! Definately a must see.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Risky movie pays off
Review: Three Kings tried something fresh and different last year (and was voted on over 100 critics' top ten lists). It didn't receive any from the "Academy," but don't pass it up. It's a war film, an action film, a comedy, and a drama... and it actually plays off well. The DVD edition is AMAZING... I'm telling you. It has more extras and goodies than I've seen on any DVD before. Well worth the money.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally, A soldiers movie for a new generation!
Review: When I first saw this film, I just graduated from my job training in the Army. My class mates and I found this an excelent movie. 2 reservists, one active duty, and one officer all find a way to make thier time in the war profitable. This movie is M*A*S*H for our generation.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: action, drama, comedy wrapped all into one!
Review: What a great movie! I came in not expecting much from this film, and came out of it saying "wow". "Three Kings" is definitely not your cookie cutter war film, but it still has that patriotism and drama that you get from most war movies. Everything about this movie is great - the unique characters, the Gulf War setting and even the whole appearance of the movie itself. This is such an enjoyable film and definitely one to add to the library - especially with all the special features on the DVD!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best war movie since Saving Private Ryan.
Review: When the war in the gulf ended it was obvious that the war didn't really end.Civillans of iran were getting slaughterd.This movie gives you a in depth look at the chaos and the fact that it wasn't the simplistic war we thought it was.

With powerful scenes of moral issues and intense action this war is new and it is the exact premise the the filmakers wanted to film it like no other movie.The film is very hilarious but it also makes you think about the decsions these soldiers had to make and what it took to be a soldier in the gulf.

With options wonderful sound and the making into this moving film Three Kings is an film paked with more options then you can handle on a dvd.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Exceptional movie.
Review: For those of you who love movies, perhaps maybe even too much, this movie is for you. I can understand why a lot of people were dissatisfied with the camera work and cinematography because it was at many times trendy and excessive . . . but it worked. There are only a select few movies that can actually give me goosebumps when I see them, this is one of those movies. I have been a fan of David O. Russell since I saw the extremely funny Flirting with Disaster. In my opinion he is one of the best screenwriters the '90s has produced. His dialogue is both smart and witty. That's why I loved Three Kings, because it not only made me laugh but it also made me think . . . even if only for a few seconds.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Tour de force ... "but ..."
Review: Without a doubt one of the sharpest, funniest, thought provoking, emotionally wrenching, and (hey, there's no shame) fast and furious action films to emerge from a major studio in many a moon. And another good reason to not watch the oscars next year. The DVD transfer perfectly captures Newton Thomas Sigel's stark, daring and much commented upon cinematography for the smaller (letterboxed and enchanced) screen at home; and watch your speakers with that awesome 5:1 sound - or at least warn the neighbors. However... I've experienced difficulty in accessing the special feature functions on more than one copy of this disc. According to a WB home vid. rep some consumers experienced similar difficulty with early DVD copies of THE MATRIX. I'm waiting to hear from another rep via e-mail. Anyone else have that problem? In the meantime ... crank it up and prepare for a visceral, emotional and intellectual ride.
