HOLLYWOOD - Jamie Foxx's new movie The Kingdom has been banned in Bahrain and Kuwait.
The film, which was the first Hollywood movie to shoot in Abu Dhabi, follows the exploits of an elite FBI team that travels to Saudi Arabia to investigate a terror attack on a U.S. compound.
The movie will debut in other Middle Eastern territories later this week.
Reports suggest sensitive censors were upset with the portrayal of Islamic fundamentalists in the film.
