Plot Summary
Baghdad, the playground for the rich and infamous, where anything can be bought - but for a price. Latif (Dominic Cooper) is taken to see his former schoolmate Uday (also played by Cooper), eldest son to Saddam Hussein. Latif is told that a great honour had been bestowed upon him: because of the great likeness between them, he has been chosen to be Uday's body double. Trapped, tortured and fearful for the safety of his family, Latif has no choice but to comply. He is forced to become part of Uday’s insane life of excess and brutality, a world entrenched in betrayal and corruption - an experience for which he almost pays with his life on more than one occasion.

Make mine a Double ;-)
Great film told about an even greater man...Latif Yahia. I have never met a nicer more genuine bloke who by all accounts should be screwed up beyond all recognition given what he has been through, in reality he managed to keep his sanity and dignity when most men would crumble. Well done Latif, when are they making the black hole? Are they brave enough?
Very enjoyable
Great performance and production. Well worth a watch
Excellent
