Munich

Steven Spielberg's 2005 film follows a team assembled after the attack at the 1972 Olympics. They are sent to find those held responsible. As the mission goes on the certainty falls away. The film makes the failure of violence to resolve anything its real subject; the narrative does not vindicate the team and leaves its close uneasy. It is adapted from a book about real events whose reliability was argued over. Eric Bana and Daniel Craig appear. The violence is hard. Who it's for: those who like political thrillers. Who it's not for: viewers expecting a clear side; the film withholds one on purpose.
