Munich

[Craig.]

I highly recommend this movie. Very thought provoking. Just be warned it is 3 hours long and at times you start to notice it. Otherwise a very good movie.

I would have gone tonight but a friend got ill and we decided to wait.....

I want to see this film. Unfortunately my cinema going friend is in India for five months. Ho hum.

Its well worth going to see even if you go alone. I know its not great option, but it's really a good movie.

Ah well. I'm off to work again tomorrow so I doubt I'll get to see it at the cinema. Though you never know, I might be able to find it showing in London somewhere later on in the year. If not, I'll get the DVD.

I agree, it was excellent-the directing was absolutely fantastic, it keeps you on the edge of your seat whether there's any real danger or not.

Like Craig said, I remember hearing audible groans when the movie didn't end after the first 2h45m.

What's it about?

What's it about?

Basically..

You've heard of the 1972 olympic game in Munich? 11 Israelian Athletes + some german police officers were killed by palestinian terrorists. Munich is about a group of well..."Cleaners" who were given the job to eliminate the ones responsible for those murders. Of course there is also a huge part filled with emotion in it.

Nope....

[Craig.]

Nope....

Then this movie probably wont make much sense to you. But you might still enjoy it.

Here's the true story it's based on. http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/september/6/newsid_2500000/2500769.stm

Nope....

Then I suggest you learn. It's quite an important even in 20th century history.

Very interesting, but it doesn't mention anything about a group of assasins killing off those responsible for the deaths of the olympic hostages

[Craig.]

The Israeli secret service, Mossad, formed a special unit that hunted down and killed two of the three surviving Munich terrorists

I cant go into the rest without spoiling the movie for others. However several things are finally explained at the end of the movie.

I agree, very worth while film. Saw it a while ago though (the day after it came out).
