Review of Damascus Cover (2017) by Silvia M — 27 Jul 2018
Just watched this haunting video on Amazon Prime...twice. Much to say in favor of Howard Kaplan's deep & disturbing best seller on the complex mid east spy game. And I was equally drawn in by this dark distilled action film based on it.
But for me, as a longtime admirer of the compelling Jonathan Rhys Meyers, the BEST thing was seeing his...other side...that torn tenderness & aching vulnerability on full display. Ari/Hans may be a flawed, burnt out, all too human operative who got "lost in his cover" but.
..for once...Jonny is NOT typecast (again) as The Bad Guy. We all know he is...so much more.
