Review of Beirut (2018) by Yosemite — 14 Apr 2018

I liked it. Time considerations prevented any introduction to the country's history so the viewers had to dive in. Hamm was a great choice for this role and overall, good cast. Scenery showed a city that had been ravaged by a civil war.

You could get a sense of the danger driving or walking around. It had a good plot and the pace of the film was good. Sort of an Argo type of movie. It was darkly shot and sometimes difficult to decipher good and bad guys.

Maybe that was the point. Hard to determine which was which. Historically Israel did invade a year after this story took place.
