Spielberg's best since Schindler's List

Rating: 10/10 (12 March 2006)

Munich is undoubtedly Steven Spielberg's best film since Schindler's List. In today's world of international terrorism, Munich is highly relevant and it deeply explores the conflict between country, duty, family and humanity. Told mainly through the view of Avner (Eric Bana), you can see just how difficult and disturbing waging a war against selected enemies can be. Leaving your family to perform a duty for country is already a hard task to swallow, while executing team strategies against the enemy adds even more danger and hardship.
Spielberg's directing in this movie is very striking and artistic, which not only exposes the most relevant elements of Munich but it also delivers deep impact to your conscience. That's right, Spielberg's impact is too powerful to ignore and your conscience will tingle a lot. Truly Spielberg is one of the greatest (if not the greatest) and he stands high and right beside the legends of Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick and Lino Brocka.
