Question about movie: The Kingdom

[dj_mocok]

Just wondering, for those of you who watched it already, during the conversation of the Arabian soldiers, was it subtitled?

Because I just bought the DVD, but it didn't have any subtitle during foreign conversations, I'm afraid I might have bought the pirated version one...

I didn't finish the movie because there were many conversations in Arabian, and I didn't wanna lose the plot.

From my memory most of the conversations in Arabic were not subtitled.

 

[dj_mocok]

You sure?
I haven't watched the whole movie, but at least there were 2 parts that were in Arabic and they were long conversations. How are we suppose to understand it then.

I don't think they were significant, and I think you were supposed to not understand them. There is a scene at the end that will make you understand why.

 

[dj_mocok]

Oh ok. The dialogues were quite long and one was during intense scene too ( the Arabian soldiers beating up another soldier), so I thought there must be a subtitle for that.

Gosh - I don't remember! Sorry.

 

[vcoheda]

where did you buy it?

 

[dj_mocok]

Local small video shop. So actually is there a subtitle? Can someone remember?

Heh... I've watched the pirated version before and there are subtitles!

The bit about beating the soldier isn't that important, but the brief conversation between the kid and his mom/aunt at the very end is fairly important.

Damn, I must have bought the dodgy version one if even your pirated version one got a subtitle!
Have to wait for the "real" release then. Not sure when though, everything is so slow here in oz.
