The entire film is hand-held like those dodgy documentaries that try to give themselves street cred by waving the camera all over the place. Here's the word: it doesn't. It just pisses you off and makes you glad when the film has ended and you can look at the curtains. Given that "about one-third of the population is susceptible to motion sickness, even during uneventful trips, and another one-third is afflicted when they encounter more extreme conditions, such as air turbulence, bumpy roads, and choppy waters" (PC Today), you would think that filmmakers would avoid upsetting the equilibrium of their audience without good reason. The kingdom is not a good enough reason.

There is some really good shooting, bombing, hitting and bleeding, though.
