not what i expected...

Rating: 5/10 (31 May 2006)

How to review a movie without taking sides on its storyline? I expected more from this movie. The lead actor was unable to portray any REAL emotion, the sex scenes (in beginning with very pregnant wife + at the end, pounding to the flashbacks of the 1972 massacre) were tasteless & unnecessary, much was left unclear, the whole story seemed unbelievable: after the Israeli Olympic team was killed, the Israeli prime minister & cabinet put into effect some plan whereby true amateurs (a toy maker?) are thrown on their own w/gobs of cash to hunt & destroy those responsible?? And what did they expect? to be able to return to normal life without any possible reprisal? Also, I feel that the Grand Master Steven Spielberg must frighten his editing team, as they seem unable to do their job.
