Title: Munich
Post by: Nuclear1 on December 29, 2005, 09:00:47 pm
Has anyone else seen this rather long (but rather good) movie yet? I saw a couple of days ago and was impressed, though I tend to be that way with Spielberg movies in general.

Any thoughts/opinions?

I saw it a week ago... I thought it basically rocked. Depressing as hell, for sure... I mean, the message that I took away from it was that Spielberg and the writers no longer have any hope for a decent resolution.

I saw it. I thought it was excellent. A good depiction of the cycle of violence that characterizes these cultural feuds.

This is the one about the '72 Olympics, yes? AFAIK it's not out at my local cinema yet, but I'd like to see it if possible.

On a related note, there was a documentary film that Michael Douglas narrated called One Day in September, about the same events. It's a few years old now, but it's very good.

That movie's sitting right in front of my telly at the moment. I haven't seen it yet, but now I just might.

Yeah, this is a movie I really want to see. Actually, I'd really like to hear Sandwich's take on it as well. Nut it looks like a good thought provoking movie.
