Damascus Cover: I've seen much Worse...

by niutta-enrico • 2018-07-26

6/10

"A honest artistic work: well acted, well shot, well edited. And middle east is always an interesting location. The plot is not the most brilliant ever written but I bet that most of us will not foresee the ending. I don't understand why exceeding in negative reviews: not every film can be worth an Academy Award. But if you love cinema there is a good chance that you'll enjoy the flick. I am old and I've seen much worse......"
