This movie is kind of messed up but the acting is great and the storyline is nuts. Sad snapshot of a time in Iraq.
There are some real standout moments and it has a fantastic premise, but it feels a little cheap and it’s definitely plodding
Interesting concept, executed poorly with a strangely white washed cast in a Middle East setting
A reaction to The Devil’s Double (2011).
Dominic Cooper is absolutely fantastic while playing a dual role. The film has some iffy effects & doesn't feel cohesive overall.
I love the subject matter, I was crazy excited but I had fairly low expectations yet I was still disappointed. It just didn’t get there.
Complete blind purchase and definitely an interesting film, if it’s there, check it out
Doesn’t work as a drama and is too morally and visually repugnant to be stupid fun.
It’s quite entertaining but there’s really nothing that special about it.
Action packed, supposedly true drama. I really enjoyed watching the film when it was released, but I wouldn’t watch it today.
