A progressively ineffective thriller...

Jon Hamm adds movie-star class and a world-weary Don Draper touch to this mediocre spy thriller containing plot twists you may think are reductive of the Muslim world. You're not wrong.

Beirut is as solid a film as Hamm is a performer.

Gilroy paints a nuanced picture of the civil conflict in Lebanon, noting the U.S. and Israeli agendas at work and the inner tensions of the PLO, yet this information serves to clarify and accelerate the action.
April 13, 2018
There are no extraneous pieces, everything fits together like a puzzle. And Hamm is that puzzle's key piece.

Unlike last month's fact-based 7 Days in Entebbe, Brad Anderson's Beirut offers a more Bourne-esque take on Bourne-esque themes from a script by Bourne franchise screenwriter Tony Gilroy.
April 13, 2018
With four Bourne thrillers to his credit, it's safe to assume that screenwriter Tony Gilroy could have penned this in his sleep. He didn't.
April 12, 2018
This is an old-fashioned spy thriller, and as such it succeeds.
