"After delivering two disappointing flicks(Terminal/War of the worlds),Spielberg is finally back in his usual form.He is best at dramatic and intensly realistic films.And Munich is just the film that shows why he is the best in the industry.

It begins off a bit slow,but that won't hold back the film ,cuz what is about to come next is shocking,terrifying and absolutely thrilling.Everything in the film is well executed apart from some flaws which are easily pointed out.

It's the story of how a group of men struggle to seek their revenge against a group of terrorist who killed 11 atheletes in the early 70's during the period of Olympic games in Germany.But as they begin this perilous mission of vengence,they no longer become different from their enemies and they themselves are transformed into terrorists.As all of them lose their soul and the thing that makes them humane.They were family men and now are serial killers;as every one of them try to get out of this dark and tragic world that they have entered.They had to accept their fates.

Spielberg has handled this film with care and hardwork.The subject matter is a bit arousing which leads to the controversial debates that are going on around the world.But that is not what this hauntingly thrilling and powerful film is about.It is an emotionally dark film about a group of men trapped in a game that they can't win.

The cast is perfect.The trademark camerawork is once again fantastic.The script is superb.The score is haunting,and no doubt this is his(Spielberg) best effort yet.Erica Bana is a rising star and he delivers,Daniel Craig,Mathew all have memorable moments.

This is at once an unforgettable tale of vengence and redemption and a flawed masterpiece.Not a masterpiece but truly powerful work from a man who is widely respected." - http://movies.yahoo.com/mvc/dfrv?mid...0qKer70Lv2YQ--
