looks pretty good. Bana is an excellent actor. directed by Spielberg

I saw it, when I went to see Jarhead. It's mostly based on the book by George Janas "Vengance", which I read, earlier this year. It's a brilliant book, which is obviously based on the MOSSAD operation to rid of Black September; the terror arm of the PLO, responsible for the Munich massacre.

I'm curious how much of the book, will be adapted to the screen. It looks like a honestly good movie, that will be worth watching.

Geoffrey Rush is in this one too. One of the best actors in the last 50 years imo. Anyone see Quills with him playing Marquis de Sade? the man is brilliant.

Seems like it could be a remake of 'The Sword of Gideon' made almost 10 years ago and covers the same topic. It's also based on the book "Vengeance" by George Jonas.

Not a bad movie.


Sword of Gideon is the 1986 film which focuses on Avner (Steven Bauer) and his recruitment into the Massad for the purpose of hunting down and killing the Black September terrorists who killed the Israeli Olympic team of 1972. His overseer is well played by Rod Steiger and his team of agents includes Michael York, Robert Joy, and Laurent Malet. They track the terrorists through Europe defusing bombs, hunting down terrorists (including a femme fatale in Karen Racicot), and Avner has second thoughts about the whole mission.

I couldn't see the video. Any could tell me any specs? And does it show the formation of the GSG-9?

Something's wrong with my pc cuz I still cant see.

[Vandervahn]

And does it show the formation of the GSG-9?

Certainly not. GSG9 was formed over a year later, and the film isnt directly about the act itself but the following Mossad investigation.

BTW its München. M*Ü*N*C*H*E*N! Stupid Spielberg... a Munich doesnt exist... [/rant off]

From the trailor is does look pretty good, but I'm still a bit reluctant since it's been a while since Spielberg came out with a truely decent film.
