  • ""Absurdly comic, highly kinetic, at times shockingly emotional, Three Kings begins when the Gulf War is over. Amid the partying and confusion, four American soldiers (George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg, Ice Cube and Spike Jonze), determined to take home more than sand fleas, go off into the Iraqi desert to find millions in stolen Kuwaiti bullion. They are plunged into the heart of a democratic uprising that spins the day and their lives out of control. David O. Russell's unique tapestry of humor, violence and history makes Three Kings "one of the best movies of the year.""--Container."

  • "George Clooney, Mark Wahlberg, Ice Cube, and Spike Jonze play a quartet of U.S. soldiers who, disillusioned by Operation Desert Storm, decide to steal $23 million in gold hijacked from Kuwait by Saddam Hussein's army. Getting the bullion out of an Iraqi stronghold is easy; keeping it is a potentially lethal proposition. By the end of their mercenary mission, the Americans can no longer ignore wartime atrocities (and neither can we--the film is boldly unflinching), and conscience demands their aid to Iraqi rebels abandoned by President George Bush's fickle wartime policy. Three Kings conveys the brutal madness of war while making you laugh out loud at the insanity."@en

  • "Marzo 1991. La Guerra del Golfo è finita. L'armistizio è stato firmato. I marines festeggiano. Un gruppetto di loro intercetta un iracheno che ha nascosto in una parte molto "intima" la mappa dei bunker in cui Saddam ha nascosto l'oro rubato in Kuwait. Approfittando della confusione generale i quattro recuperano il "tesoro". In questa ricerca si rendono conto della condizione estrema in cui una guerra, a difesa degli interessi Usa, ha messo la popolazione irachena. Che non ama Saddam ma non può amare neppure gli americani che scaricano bombe, ma poi abbandonano uomini, donne e bambini a un destino di morte. Questo cambia il loro modo di vedere le cose. (Mymovies)."
