The Mossad tracking of the Munich Olympic Assassins,
By
This review is from: Munich (Full Screen) (DVD)
> The Steven Spielberg's movie, "Munich". Nominated for five Academy award's, it reveals the story of the secret Israeli team, assembled to track down and assinate the Palestinians, responsible for the massacre of 11 Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics. From the team commissioned by Golda Meir, to the teams completed mission, the portrayal of events follows closely the actual operation. From tracking individual terrorists to their assination. Probably, the most important aspect of the movie was the portrayal of the personal toll exacted on the team, from parting from their families, recriminations on killing in cold blood. The Team Leader, attempting to justify the murders, states," Imagine you are a soldier at war for the defense of Israel".

The Hunt for Black September,
By Amanda Richards (Georgetown, Guyana) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Munich (Widescreen) (DVD)
When Avner Kaufman got the callTo track down Black September He chose to change his office job For one that he'd remember Untrained he was in hand to hand Not really versed at killing But as Golda Meir asked him to His heart was more than willing His little group was motley crewed With a large expense account Once receipts were signed and stamped The goal was paramount The first one was a learned man They shot at point blank range The second didn't realize His phone had had a change The third should not have gone to bed And then all went to hell They crossed their information source Who didn't take it well One by one the team was gone And Avner's paranoid What once was vengeance for his own Got sucked into the void At mission's end he's a changed man He's haunted, spooked and scared He did his part, and though he's out He knows that no-one cared This movie isn't Spielberg's best It's long and too protracted It may not be the gospel truth But it's certainly well acted Amanda Richards

Compelling if not pretty story,
By
This review is from: Munich (Widescreen) (DVD)
I bought this DVD in part because of it being mentioned by Kirk Douglas in his latest memoir. I remember the horror of the Olympic Terror attacks back then, I was not especially aware that the Israelis had gone after the perpetrators. Spielberg tells a good story, not glamorous or pretty, but killing people is doubtless not pretty or easy or as casual as is too often depicted in films. Very well portrayed & depicted, the film shows how different people are affected by what they go through in seeking revenge.
