Spielberg's Best

Rating: 10/10 (15 December 2005)

I saw Munich last night at a screening in Hollywood with a Q&A after with some of the production team. If you are old enough to remember the Palestinian terrorists attack during the 1972 Munich Olympics you will remember the emotions you felt when you see this film. The filmmakers have put up on the screen the world of 1972. Rick Carter, Janusz Kaminski, Joanna Johnston and their teams have once again created a world the actors can inhabit, can live and die in. The sound design was breathtaking. The audience and I were fully involved in the film. I looked around a few times and saw a lot of people sitting literally on the edge of their seats leaning towards the screen. As to it's political content I am sure it will inspire a lot of conversations. Steven Spielberg once again seems to have allowed his crew's to do their jobs and what we get to see up on the screen shows his trust was well placed. I am personal so glad to see Mr. Spielberg and the rest of the producers take a chance on a film that will be controversial and will make people think and talk, thanks.
