An intelligent thriller with an important ethical question, but sometimes to kitschy

Rating: 7/10 (14 November 2012)

Not to lose to much words, quote Rathko: "'Munich' is an intelligent and gripping thriller" and offers the ethical bias and conflict that lies in the question: is it right to fight enemies, which use all bloody possible ways and methods of achieving there goals, yourself with all possible (even illegal) methods? To be judge, jury and executioner? Is this right or do I become even myself then a terrorist? And where then lies the difference between them and me? Positive: The movie asks this question and can't it. Negative: The display of the inner doubts and bias is too clichéd and superficial to be plausible and the the persistent references of the Munich-Massacrer in the form of dreams of the main protagonists are just too kitschy and overblown to be a real outstanding film.
