OPT: Munich

No, I dint spell it wrong..
It is M-u-n-i-c-h

Thats a good start, now let me start writing..
The movie starts with some young teens (looks familiarly Indianish) trying to get into the Olympic Village. They speak Arab - so they are not Indians ! They get in and find their prey...

That was the Black September - The olympic games of 1972, which was destined to be the torch bearer for peace, was marred with terrorist attack.

The Germans opted not to stay quiet. In a shoot-out that followed, it was a massacre..

The rest of the film talks about how a mere travel guide, in company of an accountant, an electrical whiz-kid, and 2 other Pretty Ordinary men set out Officially, but Unofficially (this is interesting) for a sweet revenge..

The film is close to 3 hours.
And has a shade of its own.
(just like matrix had a greenish shade all over)

A bit of research would be a nice pre-requisite for the movie.
I was totally blank about history of this particular Olympics
(as if i know in n out of all other olympics) :-s
But still, the movie was enjoyable..

Director : Steven Speilberg
Cast : Donno any names :-S ... Somebody said the hero is in Troy
Banner : Universal / DreamWorks
Rating : Good and watchable

Just like our most recent MUA, this one is also one with a difference. This OPT was an all-expense beared OPT :-)
And when friends (no quotes) call, you cant say no ;-)

The athletes are Israelis (or should i say palestinians?). They speak English.
(anything that is not decipher-able is English to me)
