Life in Baghdad is about to become a whole lot more dangerous for army lieutenant Latif Yahia when he is brought into the palace of Saddam Hussein and told he is to be the new body double for his out-of-control son Uday. This movie was boring and not enjoyable at all.

This movie is totally on the shoulders of Dominic Cooper and he does an outstanding job of playing both the unhinged Udey Hussein and his reluctant double Latif. Ludivine Sangnier is along as Udey's mistress and she oozes sexuality. The history is glazed over in favor of a more action-oriented story. A story this crazy has to be true, right?

Less biographical and more of a sylized gangster film made out of the real life story. It works well on that level, in a 'Scarface' sort of way. Dominic Cooper is amazing at playing both the pychotic villain of Uday and his polar opposite body double Latif.
