last night i went to see Munich. don't watch it unless you are prepared for the full body movie experience. i know it's just a movie, and who knows what is accurate and what isn't... but its still incredibly painful to see. its sentimental. and i am happy it is that way. i'm happy that it is so difficult to digest and there's no attempt to make light of the complexities. eric bana is superb [and gorgeous] and daniel craig is quite hilarious [although only yiddish speakers will catch the jokes]. should have stayed.... as you watch your conscience will grow immense. why on earth are we all lounging in the states for?? i'm in maccabbi mode....and i have my ticket already...

can u give us a bit more info on the film. i am in doubt weather to see it now, or wait till it gets out.
thank you in advance.
Are the allegations that it's moraly "relative" true? Does it have to equate murder and justice?!
dov. totally don't get ur questions...
i hear alot of people are boycotting the film
another case of historical revisionism at the expense of the jews
isnt it a steven speilberg film?
(one would think, after the passion he would do better then that)
yes, it's a steven speilberg. i completely get what you are saying, HL. i think the blood, the drama the nudity were only there to help portray the story well. script writer had chutzpah to write a number of those lines. i thought the movie made a number of good social comments, which i respect. personally, i dont think it played into the arab side of things too much, but that might be because i am already coming with a jewish perspective.
can you see a defense for the people who say that speilberg was defending the plight of the arabs?
