Thought it paced very well, great casting and performances (only one that irked me was Affleck as Mendez after seeing what dude actually looked like, in the credits), the stark contrast between the Hollywood scenes and tehran scenes was handled so deftly...just an extremely taut, well done movie. The editing and cinematography were great.

My only issue, other than Ben casting himself as Mendes, was that his personal storyline fell flat, and it was particularly evident imo because of how engaging the rest of the film was.

In general though, extremely extemely well done cinema. Kudos.
