Live from Baghdad is an involving take on the personal toll it takes to be a war correspondent and the ethical complications that come with the job. Mick Jackson does well establishing Iraq as a powder keg ready to explode. When war breaks out, the danger of the situation is deeply felt. However, the lead-up is slow and character relationships are vague. Michael Keaton gives the most fully-formed performance here. Helena Bonham Carter is fine in an Emmy-nominated role, but has little to do.
