Elizabeth Gregory London Evening Standard 07/26/2023
3/5
The show is a reasonable thriller set in the Middle East. But given that this is the story of one of the most significant manhunts in recent history, Ghosts of Beirut has seriously missed a trick. Go to Full Review Craig Mathieson The Age (Australia) 05/25/2023
While it is intriguing in parts it suffers from fleeting storylines and intermittent glimpses of the characters. There’s no core to grasp onto. Go to Full Review Clint Worthington RogerEbert.com 05/19/2023
2/4
A stilted spy drama that refuses to elevate itself above mere procedure. Go to Full Review Ty'Kira Smalls Common Sense Media 06/14/2023
Ghosts of Beirut is dark, gritty, and emotional, but struggles to balance itself with the documentary aspect. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider 05/31/2023
=Ghosts Of Beirut tries to take the exceedingly complex Lebanese Civil War and tries to make it into a good-guys-bad-guys spy thriller, but fails to do so simply because that time in history can’t be boiled down so easily. Go to Full Review Hannah Brown Jerusalem Post 05/26/2023
Ghosts will keep you entertained until the new season of Fauda debuts. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Ares 4 @Ares_ 09/20/2023 Ghosts of Beirut could have been fantastic, it has incredible source material. If HBO had made this film instead of Showtime, it would have been 10 times better. See more B M @GlenFord 05/29/2023 Great story, well told. While the narrative tries to balance the perspectives of the U.S. and the chaos in Lebanon, it is clear why the U.S. must continue to target the murderous Iranian regime and its terrorist clients in the region.
