Munich

Went and saw Munich last night in the theatres. It was good, defiantly worth watching on the big screen. The movie was long, 2 hours and 44 min, my butt fell asleep and I still had an hour to go. The movie though had to be that long otherwise they would not have been able to tell any of the story.

The movie is not about the Munich Olympics entirely, which I thought it was going to be, instead it is more about what Israel tries do do because of what happened at the Olympics and really that the group Black September was able to get away with so much while the world watched and yet nothing was being done about it by the world community. The movie is obviously biased but does try and give you the other sides point of view, it doesget shot down quickly thhough.

The movie does leave some questions unanswered, thank god they were not all answered, but does a good job of making you think. The movie can be confusing at times, but keeps your interest throughout and tries to show the struggles that the Israelis and a little of what the Palestinians are going through.

Overall good movie lots of info and action and worth the admission price.
