Talk to any Jewish person who saw Munich. They did NOT see Munich as Zionist. In fact, I know a lot of Jewish people who thought it disgraced the state of Israel and made it look terrible.

I think the genius of the writing is because so many people took away different things from it, all of it dark and the opposite of so many Spielbergian endings of late.

Plus, the dialogue just CRACKLED in it. I loved it.
