The real "Munich" is surprisingly boring
Another reviewer called this film "tense" and "visceral." I agree only with one of those adjectives -- visceral. The movie just doesn't move fast enough to keep the typical viewer's attention. Overall, good movie to see to remind yourself of the world that was, and still is, but it won't keep...

This could be you and yours
There is much about this film that will revolt you: the way the film-makers try to be "even and balanced" by giving Jama Al Gashey (the surviving terrorist) yet another chance to portray himself as a hero; the way a German politician looks the camera in the eye and proclaims that he "liked Issa"...

Terror of an Olympic Proportion
I was in college from 1970-74 and I missed out on a lot of news during those years primarily because I rarely ever watched TV then. (There were far too many other things to do). I saw "Apollo 13" and wondered, Wow! When did that happen? Of course, when I realized it was during that time frame,...

Profoundly disturbing, but unfortunately a true story...
I already knew about the horrible events of the Munich games and the deaths of the Israeli athletes at the hands of the fanatic Palestinians, but I was not aware that there were many opportunites to save the Israeli team, but were horribly bungled by the Germans.This tragedy was preventable, but...

barbara tuchman might have called it "the guns of september"
oh, what the heck can one say? the miscalculations by the germans, by the israelis, by the terrorists, by the media: if any of them had shown a bit more common sense, this horrific event might well have had a different outcome. half a century after world war 1, english theatrical producer joan...

Watch, learn and remember.
I recently saw this film on Bravo, and after viewing it immediately went online to Amazon to see if it was availble on DVD; it was, and I ordered it. I was only 10 years old when these events took place, and had only a vague recollection that something "bad" happened. To see the complete and...

This is the film that "Munich" should have been.It's the story Steven Spielberg should have told.It is a brutal,moving,and brilliant look at one of the most shocking events in history.The most remarkable thing about the movie is how unbiased and even-handed it is.The filmmakers make every effort...

A must see
Simply put, this may be the finest documentary I have ever seen. The use of archived footage and interviews with key subjects involved with the tragedy makes the viewer feel like they are watching the event live back in 1972.I also thought the film was very balanced. While not condoning the...

A Brilliant Expose on Islam and Anti-Semitism
OPEN YOUR EYES!!! Yes, it was a movie title. This documentary will do more than a thousand blind men can tell you about what racism, race-hatred, genocide, cold-blooded murder, and geopolotics are about. It will be difficult watching for early teen-agers, but then again, with what we see on...

"The Myth of German Efficiency."
This is the story Steven Spielberg wouldn't be able to tell as it's based in truth. The Munich Massacre is described via the reflections of those who survived and remember the fallen. Here, technically, the film is flawless and Michael Douglas is a strong narrator. One of the wives of a...
