When one of Abu Hamza’s terrorist cells attacks a well-protected American compound in Riyadh by placing a bomb in an ambulance, the FBI seek permission to send a team to investigate. There is a little strong-arming required, and then “Fleury” (Jamie Foxx) arrives with his team of “Sykes” (Chris Cooper), “Mayes” (Jennifer Garner) and “Leavitt” (Jason Bateman) much to the initial chagrin of Saudi colonel “Al Ghazi” (Ashraf Barhom) who is under strict instructions from Prince “Ahmed” (Omar Berdouni) that no harm should come to them. Co-operation is something marginally more optional. The American’s style of working is rude, abrasive and expletive-ridden and so things don’t exactly get off to a good start, but gradually a rapport develops between the colonel and a “Fleury” who starts to appreciate that he will get nothing done unless he plays the game according to their host’s rules. What now follows is a little procedural but that’s made up for by the up close and personal action photography that illustrates the lengths both friend and foe must go to thwart yet more atrocities that don’t discriminate between combatants and civilians. Though it hints at the complexities of the politics
