    A Masterful Story About Revenge and Redemption

    Steven Spielberg's Munich is a fantastic look into the world of revenge and redemption. During the Olympic Games in Munich, we know that several athletes were assassinated. This movie shows the fictional aftermath of that tragedy. A group of men, all with different skill sets, are hired by a hidden group to kill the killers. Things don't go as planned and the suspense and tension is ratcheted up. Spielberg's reputation is further honored by watching how events play out. For its first time on Blu-ray, the A/V quality is very good. Picture is clear (but expect visual flourishes that Spielberg is known for) and grainy where it has to be. The lossless audio is excellent. When the building explodes, it felt like it was real. The extras are the same from the DVD except you don't get the nice outer cover and the postcards.

    Vengeance

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This film was not well received in some circles upon its initial release due to the political climate of the day. This film was not one of Steven Spielberg's more successful ventures, even with good reviews from most critics. Terrorism was present back in the 1970s and it is still present today and will unfortunately continue into the future. This is a fictional account of the 1972 Summer Olympic killings of the Israel national team and Israel's quest to hunt down the killers and those behind the killings. This film shows the price of vengeance that has to be paid and the heavy toll taken on the people in charge of pursuing those responsible for the murders. This Blu-ray is a Best Buy exclusive. The Blu-ray AV quality is excellent.

    I'm slowly upgrading my DVD collection to Blu. Whenever I come across a title that needs upgrading, it has to serve two criteria: 1) Is the picture and sound noticeably improved over the DVD? 2) Are all if not most extras from the DD carried over? For Munich, both criteria were met. The price was more than I wanted to pay, but with the movie money, I was almost able to see a matinee showing of Jurassic World for free.

    This was probably one of the better last few movies made by Steven Spielberg. Story was a retelling of the Munich terrorist incident at the Olympics back in the 70s and the after math that took place. The acting and direction were top notch and story had you really hooked and at the edge of your seat. Blu ray disc has excellent audio and visual quality.

    Steven Spielberg's amazing re-telling of the Munich massacre and it's aftermath is a powerful document of a part of history. Strong performances, along with intense action scenes, make for a powerful drama that rings true at every turn. A must see for any Spielberg fans or anyone interested in a look back at a dark time in our World. 5 stars.

    Steven Spielberg’s best film of the 2000s

    Munich is one of Spielberg’s most underrated films. It’s often forgotten in rankings of his best films, but I personally believe it to be the best of all of his drama films of the 2000s onwards. I am really happy that it finally got the blu-ray transfer and release that it dearly deserved.

    We all know (from movies and TV, if nothing else) the kinds of tough decisions that need to be made in "law" enforcement. This movie demonstrates not only the difficulty of those decisions, but also the difficulty for those who carry out the decisions of living with the results, whether successful or not.

    Great Later-era Spiels

    There's no denying Spielberg made a dramatic shift when he released Schindler's List in '93. Hook had tanked with critics a few years before which led him to his later 90's and 2000's darker, more serious affairs; A.I., Amistad, Minority Report, Lincoln, War Horse, Saving Private Ryan, and Munich. It doesn't get much attention these days, but Munich is a really solid political thriller and character piece. Maybe it's a little overlong, but it doesn't matter when you have such fine craftsmanship on display. Rediscover Munich and give it the attention it deserves. Looks great on blu-ray.

    Munich is an exceptional film, as exciting and involving as Spielberg's best work. It's frustrating and challenging, and doesn't give the characters or the audience an easy way out. The Blu-ray has all the bonus materials from the special edition DVD; a must for Spielberg fans.

    Spielberg at his finest! If you're not familiar with this movie, Munich tells the story of events that took place during the 1972 Summer olympics involving a secret group of assassins selected to retaliate against a terrorist group. The rest is gripping, thrill ride!

    Nobody touches Spielberg - the 72' Munich Olympic massacre and the Israel revenge takes you around Europe and how the Mossad kills those who planned the attack - the subplot where the French underground gives the Israeli's their information is thrilling

    Spielberg's Gripping Personal Drama Finally on Blu

    If you don't know the story of these Olympics or why Spielberg wanted to make this film, that doesn't matter. It's an engrossing movie no matter what. But knowing what happened, why it happened, and how so many had to learn to deal with it will mean that this movie hits a little harder, stays in your mind a little longer. One of Spielberg's most underrated and a shockingly good performance by Eric Bana. Recommended. It's so nice to finally have this in Blu-Ray quality after so many years of waiting.

    I had seen this movie once before and loved it. I got a great coupon from best buy and decided to get a movie. I saw that Munich was available and was also on sale. The shipping was fast. Overall, great movie at a good price.

    Spielberg's historical political thriller is masterful filmmaking. Watch it along with Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan. I haven't seen War Horse or Lincoln yet. But could also be a could primer for his upcoming "Bridge of Spies".
