Saw Spielbergs take on Munich while in the States and have to say it's a great film, well worth seeing at the cinema.
Considering the films main focus is on the efforts of a Mossad cell charged with taking out the Arabs/Palestinians behind Munich the film delivers a fairly balanced view of the Israel/Palestine conflcit.
The similarities in goals between the Palestinian Terrorists and the historical struggle of the Jews is subtle but well made. At the end you can't help but feel a bit exasperated by it all but the film stands on it's own as a excellent spy/thriller action movie.
8/10
