Munich

Rating: 9/10 (21 January 2006)

Munich staring Eric Bana Wow! Went to see this film without knowing too much history about the 1972 Olympic hostage taking. I was not even born yet. I learned so much about Israel and walked out of the film with a greater knowledge of what the Israelites have gone through and the plight if there forefathers. I would highly recommend this film to all who have the slightest bit of interest in History and Israel. I now have decided to take a trip to Israel and check out the Kibbutz, and learn more of their history. The only problem I had with this film was the length, I think it could've had about twenty minutes shaved off, nearing the end I found myself looking at my watch wondering if it was ever going to end. Although I understood the need for it to be the length it was. If you can't sit still in a theater, wait for it to come to video. But do see this film and go in with an open mind. I applaud all the actors for a job well done and hope that this film gives people the message that was intended. Enjoy the movie!
