Rock the Kasbah suffers only from one thing, and that's not having "Rock the Casbah" by The Clash in its soundtrack. Instead there's mostly Cat Stevens, which has the ability to pacify most of the middle-east.

Instead there's mostly Cat Stevens, which has the ability to pacify most of the middle-east. At least that's what I learned from the film. Bill Murray delivers yet another enjoyable performance. The plot is constantly moving from hilarious event to another. Though it isn't until late in the film when the actual conflict is introduced. Before this, Murray simply moves around and meets people like an American prostitute played by Kate Hudson, arms dealers Scott Caan and Danny McBride, and Bruce Willis as a no-nonsense mercenary with a heart of gold. Surprisingly, all of them continue to be heartwarming and funny, despite the lack of focus.

Once the conflict presents itself though, the story becomes a bit predictable, with a few interesting diversions inbetween. Overall, it's a satisfying film. It certainly doesn't deserve the negative criticism it has received, being a box office bomb.… Expand
