rating: 2 QuoteMore horrible direction from Spielberg and a pathetic pseudo-psychological scriptQuote
Good grief, what a load. Get this: after Palestinian terrorists murdered a large group of Israeli athletes at the Olympics (this actually happened) the Israeli version of the CIA, the Mossad (according to Spielberg's pathetic mental gyrations) selected a small group of untrained assassins to locate and kill the terrorists, wherever they were. And oh! the anguish these assassins suffered! Vey is mier! Poor tortured souls they were! Murder most foul! Revenge--is this Jewish? Mammanyu! The only person who actually acts in this movie is the superb French actor Mathieu Amalric whom you may know from The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, is which he is stupendous. Congratulations to him for obviously not listening to a word Spielberg told him. Oh, and the musical score. To poop on. September 12, 2008

not interisting for me it give you view one side to bleam the other side August 29, 2008

rating: 4 QuoteImportant issues raisedQuote
People have done a good job of explaining plot points. I will just say that this is a thoughtful movie that doesn't give any easy answers. Can we really divide the world between good and evil? And if there is a good side, do acts of revenge keep the 'good' from going evil? Slight criticisms. The movie is long and many scenes seem drawn out. The dialog is not outstanding and the plot and acting drive the movie along. The end scene which is controversial, no spoilers, was not to my liking. It was too heavy handed. Munich was a tragedy and the act of killing atheletes was an evil act. However did Israel strike back with too much force? What led up to the act. How many Palestines believed the killings would help their cause. Many more questions to ponder in a time when we are looking for quick 30 second answers. August 24, 2008

rating: 3 QuoteA bit of a plodderQuote
The subject is so heavy and Speilberg does nothing to make it lighter. Did this really happen this way? Evidently, reality was pretty close, though we don't know for sure because the Israeli hit squad has never been acknowledged, has it? A docudrama about an episode that's still hard to believe happened so many years ago. August 19, 2008

rating: 5 QuoteGritty, Violent, and True.Quote
I love Spielbergs film style in this, it reminds me of Schindler's List. Very well done and acted out. August 8, 2008
