Evengyny Thanks for the memories!

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

castingqueenla9 I mean, come on, doesn't anyone proof the scripts they're producing anymore? This was so unrealistic it's ridiculous. Jon Hamm - you're above this drivel. What an insulting plate of barf this film was.

esther70 I don't care it is not filmed in Beirut. It is a good spy thriller that is unlike most others. It does not have car chases or thousands of bullets flying or naked men & women decorating the screen. It has depth and is thought provoking. A wife died and the husband grieved. A child lost his mentor and he seeked another, who led him to a totally different path. There are deceptions but there are also trust and friendship. It is a movie that keeps your brain churning instead of your adrenaline rushing.

Ed Cohen Imagine that Don Draper was a hotshot USA diplomat in the early '70s, and played off someone not unlike Peggy Olson.

belindar-2 Beirut, now this is the way to make a great movie. Action suspense, great actors and extremely good storyline make this one of the best this year. I have been looking for a movie like this that would keep my interest and not bore me with a terrible or worst direction. This movie seems to follow a direction that was easy to follow and keep my interest. I really like it. Hollywood should use this kind of movie as an example of good taste. Jon Hamm and Shea Whigham (He portrayed Elias "Eli" Thompson in the HBO drama series Boardwalk Empire), just to name two were great. I hope they get more movies where they can show their great talent.
